Pecco Bagnaia, cutting off his sleeves to the past

‘V of Vendetta‘. A rematch Roman numerals, number 5, the one on the curve representing all weekends Pecco Bagnaia in Barcelona. For the bad, like in Sprint, well fell there on the last lap, when he was in the lead, and for the good, because there surpassed Jorge Martin on Sunday in the winning run.

This is an angle to the left, with the opposite bank and strongly inclined. In fact, Martinator even touches the shoulder there, but the current champion I “had” to do it there, even though the rhythm was so excellent that I could choose.

The champion himself demanded this of himself. “Yesterday I hated this turn. I couldn’t believe it when I passed first and was in the lead at this stage of today’s race. I think it helped me. I closed the circle there“, he blurted out.

To confirm your hostility, on your knees of honor, after victory, he cut his sleeves when passing this corner. “It was important to do something there. So I decided to move on. I did this on purpose. “I, of course, prayed that it would not close in front of me,” he admitted.

Bad past

In fact, his claims went further: Bagnaia I’ve never been on the podium on the Catalan route, and he did it in a big way, at the highest level. In addition, in 2023 also he fell while driving Sunday race, second turn and that was it hit by Brad Binder. He could have been seriously injured during one of his worst falls, but fortunately he arrived only “touched” by subsequent events and saved the World Cup.

The fact is that Pekko doesn’t like this track at all, and for every reason. criticizes his grip and the fact that it does not float to the surface, although, as has been shown in the past, this does not solve much, since there is a lot of activity all year round and it shows. “This is a disaster,” he repeated that same Saturday.

Now end the curse. “It’s here I had all the colors. Even the fall happens slowly, like a sprint. We even joked about it. I didn’t believe it, but when I finished… I don’t know,” he said, laughing.

Message for the World Cup

The one that was sent with the official Ducati, by the way message to Jorge Martin, surpassing him at the end and cutting off the points. Moreover, he gave tire lesson recover after Martinator and Acosta led early and were overtaken. “I liked how I was in control, although it was not easy,” he pointed out. And he gave me his key: “I can focus on goals. I know my potential, I know that if everything goes well, I can fight until victory. This makes me always ready. I have everything to be competitive and it gives me confidence“.

The Italian has an upcoming bill but is bracing himself for the special date. “I have to improve in sprinting. I’m tired of losing free points on Saturday. IN Mugello I don’t want to make any more mistakes. “This is my favorite Grand Prix, along with Misano,” he said. No wonder he won both races in 2023.

Now Pecco at 39 points Martina. “The one who opened the gas the least won, Bagnaia, but I’m happy with my work,” Jorge said. By the way, another “curse” has ended Ducatiwhich has not expired since 2018. This happened with triplets and the end of Aprilia… and Aleix’s paradise Espargaro.
