MotoGp, Ducati: Pecco Bagnaia admits a difficulty
Pecco Bagnaia explains what he lacks for first place
Fourth in qualifying, third in the Sprint Race: given the conclusion of Friday's crash and tenth place overall, Pecco Bagnaia has taken a decisive step forward in Argentina, but it remains to close the gap with a so far dominant Marc Marquez, capable of giving the Piedmontese rider almost four seconds at the finish of Saturday's short race.
Speaking to 'Sky Sport', the number 63 of the Ducati Lenovo team explained that he has difficulties in two points of the Termas de Rio Hondo track: "This is not è a friendly track, but we are working in the right direction. There are forò two important corners where we lose too much ground, #6 and #11. It's important to figure out the mostù correct" approach.
"Before the Sprint I had a sixth-place race pace,” Bagnaia added, “so I would say we took a step forward. In the race I ran well, I was clean and consistent, but maybe I è lacked that little bit more. Tomorrow will beà different, although I have to improve the entrance in some corners, where I enter too sideways".
The results of Sprint races, as demonstrated last year, can also heavily affect the season and Bagnaia knows this very well: "I took the same points as in the Sprint in Thailand – he explained -. Looking far ahead è positive becauseé I add points to the standings, but I have to close the gap to Marc and Alex" soon.
