Joan Mir scared of Ducati

With each passing Grand Prix, Ducati’s gap from the chasing houses is getting wider and wider. In the last 8 races, the Borgo Panigale manufacturer has occupied all the podium positions: the domination seems to have no limits. Quite the opposite of Honda, now the tail-end of MotoGp.

The Japanese manufacturer in the first 11 races has collected just 28 points and è desolately last in the constructors’ standings. Rider Joan Mir in As stressed the gap between his bike and that of Ducati: “The work they do è crazy, as well as the level of their bike. I found myself behind Bagnaia and at the’exit of the slow corner between 3 and 4 Pecco gained three tenths only by raising the bike and opening the throttle”, he said after the Austrian Grand Prix.

“Our top speed è not è then so bad, but what is wrong è our acceleration. They have disproportionate grip, they seem to be from another category”.

The’former Ducati rider: “Bagnaia-Marquez war? Valentino Rossi will interveneà”

“He knows what needs to be done and of course he will help ” Bagnaia in any way he can,‖ Barros revealed.

Bagnaia knows he will have a difficult year. It’s true that he è been in Ducati for a long time, the two titles must be respected and he è is on track for the third, but a rider is coming who will unbalance everything…”.

“In this game that Marc is already playing, Valentino is definitely helping Bagnaia becauseé he knows him. It’s going to be a war inside the pits and Ducati is going to have’s going to have a lot of difficulty in handling it”.

“Bagnaia è a VR46 Academy rider, and you know what è happened between Marquez and Valentino. Bagnaia does not show it, but è it is clear that they are not friends and there will be a lot of controversy”.
