There are only two races left to meet the new MotoGP world champion. The penultimate test that the drivers will have to overcome will be the Qatar GP, the nineteenth round of the championship. The Italian Francesco “Pecco” Bagnaia (Ducati Desmosedici GP23) arrives at this test with an advantage, with 14 points ahead of the Spaniard Jorge Martín.
Bagnaia knows that he is closer to his goal, after finishing in third position in the Malaysian GP, ??because “the most important thing was to finish in front of Jorge” without any of them having “problems.”
“I tried everything, but the most important thing was to finish in front of Jorge without any of us having problems, since I had already beaten him in the last races, but he always had some problem and it was the first time since Austria that I beat him on equal terms. conditions and it is important for Qatar,” the Italian insisted.
However, Bagnaia does not want to claim victory early: “Without a doubt, a 14-point lead is better than nothing or chasing and, if it were a normal season, with one race per weekend, it would be a good distance, “but since 37 points are distributed every weekend it’s not that much.”
