Mugello, Bagnaia to scream on Friday. But he is under investigation…
After so many words spent on the market, the track is finally letting the track do the talking at Mugello. And the track gave the first unequivocal confirmation: Francesco Bagnaia he ended the Trials clearly in the lead. The world champion was the only one to go under 1:45 and preceded Alex Rins by almost three tenths, giving further proof of an improvement on Friday which allows him to immediately direct the weekend in the correct way.
Bagnaia’s words
However, a dangerous sword of Damocles hangs over “Pecco”. At the end of the tests the #1 became the protagonist of an argument with Alex Marquez, who accused him of slowing him down when braking: “It’s ridiculous, I have to go towards the race. I’ll hear what they have to say, I’ll explain my situation. Evidently making a bit of a show when certain things happen helps to annoy others and give penalties to others, if he played it in the best way. I was out during the braking, and as usual he put on a great show“.
“Being first is always nice but today it wasn’t the priority. On Friday the important thing is to be in the top ten. Let’s say that this session went well and I’m happy. In the last four Fridays of the race I have always felt very good, and this helps a lot to be more ready in the following days. I am satisfied that I worked in the right way, tomorrow we will take another step forward. I hope to finish the Sprint in the meantime and get a good result. The potential is there, you have to be able to do everything right“.
“I get crazy excited about racing in Italy, this morning there were people shouting from the stands and it gave me goosebumps, this is an added value that helps. Racing at Mugello is not only magical for the track, but also for the surroundings, and when you go fast it gives even more pleasure. We need to improve in the corners, in my opinion tomorrow they will remove six tenths and we will do 1:44.2“.
