MotoGp, Argentina: Pecco Bagnaia explains the crash with his Ducati
Pecco Bagnaia down, but è in Q2
Bittersweet conclusion of Friday for Pecco Bagnaia in Argentina: the three-time world champion in fact risked compromising the entire day with a crash in the final of the second timed session of the MotoGp, but fortunately for him, the time recorded just before allowed him to gain the tenth place, the last useful to avoid the treacherous Q1 and directly dispute the Q2.
Speaking to 'Sky Sport', Bagnaia explained what caused the slip: "I lay down and I could see myself alreadyà eleventh, out of the top ten for a few thousandths – he began, with a joking tone -. The first time attack had been good, although without exaggerating, I was trying to file a few tenths but in turn 2 I entered a little too tight and the bike è closed. It canò happen".
Already; the start of the day, however, had been a bit underwhelming, with the 16th time over a second and a half behind Marc Marquez, his teammate: "This morning I felt like in Thailand, I didn't feel the bike well in the corner entry, I was coming long. Then we stopped and tried to figure out what to change: in the afternoon the feeling was better".
"We need more" load at the rear, we were not going in the right direction – added Bagnaia -. We know where to intervene to make the bike flag less, tomorrow we will make more changes that, in my opinion, will allow me to manage everything better. I am convinced that we will see the step forward, already in view of the Sprint".
