Bagnaia, critic, assures to continue the “error analysis of Motegi”

Date:

The Italian Francesco “Pecco” Bagnaia (Ducati Desmosedici GP22), who had a race accident at the Japanese Motegi “Twin Ring” circuit, said he is still holding on. “Motegi Error Analysis, Even Now”.

“We have to understand the lack of acceleration and speed compared to other bikes,” he acknowledged.

I was stuck behind Pol Espargaró for many laps and it was impossible for me to overtake himso we have to understand this situation and maybe this weekend we will find something that will help us, but in any case it was a bit different this weekend, in terms of the conditions in which it was competitive before,” explained by Bagnaia.

“It’s hard to know and understand that in some circumstances you have to push at the same levelbut I couldn’t because I was behind someone slower and, if I think about the crash, my goal is usually to overtake Fabio, it’s another point, but it’s important for the championship to stay at the front and I was ambitious, I tried to overtake from too far and I lost control of the bike when I was trying to stop the bike”, continued the Ducati rider.

Regarding the rain, “Pecco” Bagnaia said that “compared to last year, the only thing that changes is the balance of the bike.” “Perhaps for that reason it cost me more. The difficult thing is that we didn’t have many sessions in the wet, in Japan I didn’t feel the tires and everything was more difficult for me. The team has great ideas and they will help me balance the weights.”

De Buriram said that “the first sector was very good for Ducati, with a curve and a long straight”. “But the third sector is our weak point, we lost a lot of time compared to Quartararo in 2019 and he was the only one who went really fast at that stage, although I think the new fairing will help us in that part of the circuit.”

“It is certain that the current tires will improve the grip. Some circuits have better grip than others, of course, but the slippage we have on the straight is from being too hot and difficult to manage in the wet because the soft is too soft, so it’s very difficult to pick the tires but here in 2019, we all used the intermediate front and rear in the third free practice and it went well, but in a racing situation it will be more difficult than shooting in practicealthough there will be less hydroplaning than Motegi,” Bagnaia said.
