MotoGP, Bastianini: "Bagnaia and I just have to settle down with the Ducati"

“In the first part of the season I either won or finished eighth-tenth. This fluctuation of results must not exist. As for the future, I'm at peace, it's not such a dramatic thing "

MotoGP: Bastianini:

Between present and future. In fact, Enea Bastianini's 2023 goes through an exam like that of the Red Bull Ring, where the goal is to confirm the performance of two weeks ago at Silverstone. There is therefore confidence on the part of the Romagna rider for the Austrian round, despite the pitfalls of the weather.

So the talk revolves around the track and at the same time the market with one eye on next year.

“I'm quite excited - he said - I like the track and I'm curious to see the new chicane. I think it was right to introduce it, since until last year I felt movements and it was dangerous. Obviously, it ruins the layout, but as far as safety is concerned, I think it is a correct decision ”.

There is certainly a lot of expectation around the Gresini rider.

“It is still early to make predictions, but I think we can have good races, trying to be consistently in front and not just at times. Silverstone was a good restart and we have to continue like this, given that in the first part of the championship I was either winning or finishing behind like eighth-ninth. This fluctuation must not exist”.

An aspect that in some ways Pecco Bagnaia also shares.

“He has also been through ups and downs and we just have to settle down. I don't think this depends on the bike, given that there is always a Ducati in front and as a result the bike is competitive. "

In the background there is always the future taking centre stage.

“I am quite at peace, even though everyone is waiting to understand what the future will be. At the moment it is not such a dramatic thing ”.

However, the priority remains the race weekend.

“Tomorrow it will rain a lot and it will be difficult to try the new chicane well and understand it. In any case, I will have to be fast in the wet and ready, because in this condition I am not yet at 100% ”.
