The Keys to the Assen Sprint

Date:

1. The extraordinary communion between Pecco Bagnaia and Assen.

He won his first victory in the World Championship with Mahindra Moto3, he also won in Moto2, he repeated in 2022 in MotoGP, the same in 2023, and he dominates now without causing opposition… It is not surprising that Pecco Bagnaia is has a tattoo at the Assen circuit.

2. The fall of Marc.

A miscalculation when drawing into turn #2 led him to the ground for the second time this weekend. It is clear that Marc can go very fast on the Ducati, but it is also clear that he still does not know his bike 100%… And the long-awaited first victory is resisting.

3. Jorge Martín’s reaction.

The Madrid native was able to turn around a difficult Friday, where he was never comfortable or fast. From being 7 tenths away, he is now 1.5 tenths behind Bagnaia. If tomorrow he can polish his way through turn #7, the Italian will have a rival. In any case, Martín’s thought was repulsive.

4. Return of Bastianini.

The Italian driver performed a tremendous sprint, which took him from eleventh position on the grid to fourth at the finish line. Probably his best race so far in the championship. Look out for Enea tomorrow.

5. The courage of Aleix Espargaró.

Despite his heavy fall yesterday, Friday, Aleix had no doubts to toll out on the final lap to overtake Di Giannantonio for fifth place. Due to his determination, he crashed at the high-speed corner #15 of Assen, one of the corners in the World Championship where it is ‘forbidden to fall’.
