Marc Marquez, surprise gesture for Pecco Bagnaia

Courtesy gesture by Marc Marquez for Pecco Bagnaia in Mandalika: the Ducati Lenovo team centaur è ran out of gas at the end of pre-qualifying for the MotoGp Indonesian Grand Prix d'Indonesia and the Catalan rider è came to his rescue, "towing him" until he returned to the pits. It was an unusual scene between the two future teammates at Ducati, who had experienced some tensions in recent weeks, such as the clash between Pecco and Alex Marquez in Aragon and Valentino Rossi’s harsh words toward the number 93 for the events of 2015.

"Luckily è passed Marc – commented to Sky Bagnaia -. Under the sun it would not have been the best. He saw me almost stopped and helped me right away, between riders we respect each other, è difficult to image someone who does not stop in a situation like that"

Bagnaia finished fourth in practice: "We had not started well, I had a lot of problems in the right turns, I was not braking well. As soon as I put a new soft on the rear è everything went back to normal".

Jorge Martin and Enea Bastianini the mostù fast: "They did some fantastic laps with the average on their part, I think I can make progress on Saturday".
