.

The duel between Bagnaia and Martin is thrilling all MotoGP fans. By winning in Motegi, site of the Japanese Grand Prix, the reigning World Champion made up more points to Martin, the leader of the World Riders’ Championship. The Spaniard, at the moment, has a 10-point lead over the Italian when there are four rounds left to the end of the season.

Ducati domination on the track è total. Dall'Igna enjoys it but dismisses, vigorously, those who think that, in the end, the two riders will be treated differently with Bagnaia put in the best possible condition to win what would be his third World Championship: "For me, the best man has to win", explained the Ducati dg to Gazzetta dello Sport.

Dall'Igna wants to be very clear on the issue: "I think it is meant that we no longer brought technical innovations, avoiding that one is treated better than the other". In short, total transparency in the choice and no favors to either of the two pilots who, therefore, will play the World Championship on the track, on equal terms.

Bagnaia and Martin have won 11 of the 16 GPs contested. A Rossi-Valentino style duel? Dall'Igna has no doubt about it: "Totally. The big difference, però è that the management of the riders è completely different. Back then there was a wall, now instead a total sharing of data and a Ducati work to support Martin…. And, by the way, the work we do behind the scenes è exactly the same for Pecco and Jorge".
