Ducati: Carlo Pernat again brutal on Marc Marquez’s choice
The’agent of Enea Bastianini Carlo Pernat in an interview with motorionline è returned to talk about the choice of Ducati to rely on Marc Marquez: “It’ clear that everyone does what he wants, but Dall’Igna choosing Marquez has lost all the young riders he had brought up, the number 1 that è went to Aprilia and Team Pramac”.
“He lost Bastianini, Martin and Bezzecchi, riders who grew up in Ducati. It’ s true that you got an eight-time World Champion, but he is 32 years old and will definitely create some little problems in the team next year, I am sure. You also lost the reference team, a team that for 20 years è was the Ducati” branch, continued Pramac.
In addition, according to Pernat, Marquez is no longer è the one he used to be: “He still has physical problems, he is no longer è the one from before who ‘shredded’ everyone. It’s obviously a legitimate choice, we’ll see who’ll be right. Martin, Bezzecchi and Bastianini go to strengthen a competition that previously did not have”.
On the Bagnaia-Marquez duel: “Certainly having Marquez close is not è a nice thing, è one that works a lot psychologically. Bagnaia’s goal will be to beat an eight-time World Champion, but on the other hand in the team there will be a different” environment.

Clostebol-Jannik Sinner: Filippo Volandri no longer holds back;
Filippo Volandri, captain of two-time Davis Cup-winning Italy, spoke in an interview with QS about the possibility of Jannik Sinner being disqualified over the Clostebol case. The world number one tennis player is in danger of being suspended for a year after being found positive in a test in March: the Court of Arbitration for Sport will decide early next year, probably after the Australian Open.
“I don’t even want to think about a’possible disqualification of Sinner, given his honesty and the irrefutable evidence he has provided. But if there’è a person with broad shoulders è it is Jannik”.
“A disqualification would be the biggest injustice in history,” reiterated Volandri, who then praised the blue group. This è a group of friends, they are ready to be there when another needs. I want the national tennis team to remain at the top for a long time: this does not mean winning everything every year, but always staying among the top”.
The Azzurri captain is spoiled for choice: “It è cost me to leave Arnaldi and Cobolli at home or to tell Musetti he would not play against Australia. There è he was hurt, in the days before he had played amazing tennis”.
