Jorge Martin it’s a fury: the tenth place in Qatar takes him away from MotoGP World Championship. They are now 21 points behind Francesco Bagnaia in the rankings. The disappointing result at Losail was dictated by a problem with the Michelin tyre. And the team’s Spaniard Pramac Ducati points the finger at the French supplier to the Sky microphones: “The tire wasn’t working. I couldn’t do much. I was the only one who skidded at the start. I tried to stay calm in the first laps, but I didn’t have the pace to overtake the riders “.

Martin’s gaze shifts from the race in Qatar to the championship discussion: “It’s a shame that the championship is decided like this. I don’t think it was resolved on the track with a result. It was something very strange. For me it’s a shame, I say this regardless of who might win.” Jorge appears rather disheartened when faced with the mountain to climb in Valencia, the last act of the season: “It’s not the same to get there 21 points behind. I’m very sorry after a year of struggle. I deserve the title like Francesco, but unfortunately it went Like this…”. And to those who point out that a similar problem has afflicted Bagnaia, Martin replies: “Yesterday Pecco managed to lap within three tenths of the leaders. I, on the other hand, was very far away. There are tires that go and don’t go. I’m not saying that it was done by purpose, but it doesn’t make sense.”
