Luigi Dall’Igna enjoys Ducati’s triumphant weekend at Le Mans
Ducati’s CEO extols Jorge Martin, Marc Marquez and Pecco Bagnaia
Ducati Corse general manager Luigi Dall'Igna analyzed the MotoGp weekend in Le Mans, which è ended with a domination of Jorge Martin, who took both Sprint Race and Gp. Good performances also for Marc Marquez and Pecco Bagnaia, who finished second and third, respectively. Good fourth place also for Enea Bastianini.
"Four Ducatis in the top four positions, six in the top seven. A spectacular race for our teams on an exemplary day. The raw numbers say it, but even moreù convincing è what we actually saw on the track between Saturday and Sunday, confirming the great work that all our teams are doing for bikes and riders" began the Italian team’s MD.
"A superb Martin lapped the Sprint Race winning an exciting GP, in a thrilling challenge decided at the sprint after an intense battle until the last corner. Fast and tenacious as always, he was able to seize the moment, take the lead and stay there, imposing himself with the right aggressivenessà but also with perfect competitive perseverance" continued the blue executive about the centaur of Prima Pramac.
"Marquez confirmed the brilliant progress he is making, the giant strides, taking his Ducati from thirteenth position on the grid to the conquest of second place, which is worth as a victory. Now he è constantly in front, fighting for the podium. With a resounding race he repeated the second place he got on Saturday, after a disappointing qualifying" added the engineer born in 1966.
"Pecco, after an excellent start, the kind he knows how to do, è was the protagonist of a hard-fought race of great character, giving everything, attacking and defending himself with the generosityà of the champion which è, only at the end suffering the comebacks first of Martin and then of Marquez. A seemingly interlocutory result, but in reality, in the context of a long and challenging championship for everyone, these are not easy races, in which knowing how to win the podium è fundamental" this is the analysis on the performance of the reigning champion.
"Enea’s fourth place è an important result considering the penalty inflicted on him, without which, in my opinion, he could have fought for first place, which he would have deserved if the record lap of the race obtained in the last laps was also taken into account" this is the thought of the Dg on the number 23.
"Today I enjoy the greatest pleasure for our bikes and teams, our riders and technicians, our colors and our wonderful supporters! My heartfelt thanks to everyone. Rosso Ducati!" concluded Gigi Dall'Igna.
