L‘he said Pecco Bagnaia “it was, that Aeneas would try” and he replied in turn he replied: Have you ever thought not to try? “Never”.
All right, all beautiful, almost beautiful if there had been more overtaking (interestingly about what Dovi says).
The second place of Enea Bastianini at Misano is an excellent result obtained with a Ducati with a beautiful livery, in homage to Fausto Gresini.
About the race …
“The grip improved in the last laps and Pecco did an incredible pace, I was able to stay together, maybe I had a little more but I didn’t use it at the right moment, I made a small mistake at turn 4 of the last lap. it certainly cost me the victory, however Pecco made a great pace “
Podium in Misano, particular emotion?
“Yes, I hadn’t been on the podium for a while, I needed, then in front of the Italian public, my friends, my fans, the icing on the cake”
Are you sorry you didn’t win?
“As I said in the Parc Fermé the arenga is salat and also a little bitter (the herring is salty and also a little bitter), yes certainly a bit of that mistake at 4 I carry it with me, but there it is, I had a bit of enthusiasm to want to win, because it is always my goal. But it’s fine”
No.On the last lap you recovered a lot in Pecco and arrived side by side, you had the chance to win: did you try to die?
“I tried to death, even after the long one, in the last two corners I got very close but at the last corner I was still very far away and I would have done a patatrac, so I accelerate, I just missed it!”
But if it hadn’t been Pecco, would you have tried at the last corner?
“No, because at 99.9% I would have gone to the ground, unless I had played a world championship”
But have you ever thought not to try because it was Pecco?
“Never … no”
Was the initial idea to try it on the last lap?
“I thought about trying the penultimate, then I said better the last one so he doesn’t see anything of me, but it cost me that mistake so it didn’t help”
Did the mistake occur due to the risk that the bike generates?
“Exactly, unfortunately when you are very close to the driver in front it is always complicated, Pecco braked slowly because I believe entering the exit rather than the entrance, but I braked hard because I wanted to stay close to him and to avoid contact I threw myself outside. and I tried to bring speed but I lost time “
The next is Aragon, indigestible in Quartararo, do you like the Ducatisti?
“I like it, we’ll see”
