With the fall at the second-to-last corner at Misano, Bagnaia said goodbye to his World Championship dreams last Sunday. A slight mistake, maybe also due to the choice of the hard front tire, like Miller who finished the race in the same way.
The official MotoGP channel posted an interesting behind-the-scenes video on the web of that day.
Pecco confronts his crew chief Christian Gabarrini in the garage.
“It was the only way. I had to push like crazy,” he said. “The only thing I regret is having fallen like this again. It’s those times when you don’t understand why. It really pisses you off. I was paying attention to all the laps, even in that one.”
Then he talks during the space reserved for interviews with Rossi. Valentino had tried to convince him to choose a more conservative tire.
“In my opinion, you should have started with the medium,” the Doctor suggested. “At the end, the temperature dropped, the sun went down. You could also feel it in the air. It was too bad.”
