Pecco Bagnaia He had an amazing career in the edition of Last year’s Indonesian GP came back from 13th position to win in Mandalika. But the Italian has suffered greatly in training and is about to complicate his title chances. A story that seems to have repeated itself in this 2024 edition.
The two-time MotoGP world champion started to suffer a lot at the start of the weekend until at the last moment he put a soft rear tire where he managed to move up to fourth position.
“I was reliving the nightmare of last year, the same feeling. But luckily, when we put the soft back on, everything started working normally again. It’s a shame that we lost a bit of time in the first part of the session until the ‘time attack’,” the Italian said in remarks reported by Crash.net.
“Happy about it, but we have to understand a little bit what happened because it’s strange that just by changing medium to soft we have improved the lap time like this.”

Looking ahead to this Saturday’s Sprint race, Bagnaia needs to start cutting points against Jorge Martín, who has a 24-point lead. The Spaniard started very strongly in Indonesia but Pecco is confident of his pace in attack.
“I think for tomorrow I feel good because it’s tomorrow morning Tomorrow we will go out with the used soft and in the sprint I think we will go with the soft. For the long race, I saw Enea and Martin doing some amazing laps. Also Morbidelli this morning. I think we are more equal than what is reflected today,” he concluded.
