Pecco Bagnaia furious: "In the sprints they are all out of their minds"

Here are the words to Sky Sport MotoGP reported by formulapassion.it of Francesco Bagnaia after the fall in the Jerez de la Frontera sprint for a collision with Marco Bezzecchi caused by a’kamikaze entry of Brad Binder at the first corner.

“Binder è his vein closed when Marquez passed him in turn 9, throwing him a bit’ off. But lì for lì there was no contact. The’last corner he è jumped in in a manner quite over the edge, risking sending both of them to the ground. Not content, at 1 he decided to go all over the curb to get past two and I“;

.

“Fin lì I was not satisfied. È just like Sprint leads drivers to be out of their minds in certain situations. They change direction without any sense. You find yourself some times exploiting that, overtaking because of other people’s mistakes. Other times you end up in trouble and sandwiches, like me today“.

“By doing the same race strategy as in a long race you could do very well in the Sprint, without making certain kinds of crashes and mistakes. For me today Binder’s overtaking in the’last corner to Marquez made no sense, so much so that he lost 3 positions. There’was no need“.

“Being behind the others I noticed that the pace was slow, it was easy to stay in the group, but conditions always change. Tomorrow è dry and what è happened today should not happen anymore. The feeling was good, I was able to do what I wanted. Yesterday we changed one big detail on the bike, which made so much difference. Old fork from’last year? Yes, I went back to it already in Austin. It helps me turn the bike“.
