A third rival appears between the two. Bagnaia, an indecipherable race.
(Paolo Lorenzi) The hundredth victory for DucatiIn the end, it was signed by a rider with a bag, the one who will leave the Borgo Panigale team next year. But what a race. And it turned out between the two rivals BastianiniWho seemed yesterday resigned to watching the anticipated fight between the two leaders as a spectator. Bagnaia and Martin respected the prediction, but only in the first laps.. Martin attacked, Bagnaia crossed, signs of a fiery clash. But something changed in Bagnaia’s mind after overtaking Martin who had started in front and found himself behind at the first corner. The movie he had been imagining suddenly came crashing down. While Jorge pulled away, followed by Bastianini, Becco struggled.
An indecipherable race, the race of the world champion, who signed the record in the middle of the race. The beginning of a possible recovery, a return that put him one second behind his teammate. Strategy? It wouldn’t be the first time. Knowing how to interpret and read races while riding for 300 hours, the idea of Bagnaia returning to racing crystallized lap by lap. Even the twist, the fall on the twenty-first lapThe race is over, the duel is lost, along with quite a few points in the standings. It would have been 29th if the Italian hadn’t overtaken Martin, a borderline overtaking move, on the last lap..
The Spaniard from Pramac, who had finished a long period, Send him to hell for the world to see. After the finish line they shook hands. “Overtaking is the limit, of course, but when you’re on the line, victory is there,” said the unapologetically remorseful comment of the winner who had always raced with 23 records, the same as Luca Salvadori. The direction of the race turned a blind eye, and Martin – still angry – had to swallow the bitterness.Jorge goes home with a 24-point lead. On the other hand, Bagnaia is feeling depressed, and has quite a few things to think about. After the superiority he showed in the short game (his opponent’s hunting ground), the defense race on Sunday. And for the record, his crash paved the way for him to climb the podium. MarquisThe second one will be in two weeks in Romania.
