Enea’s manager, guest of the episode: “We didn’t like Ducati’s words after the Misano race. He tried to win but Pecco was perfect and now Quartararo is afraid. Next year, Rigamonti comes in place of Giribuola”

07 September

It was a Sunday of great emotions, that of Misano Adriatico, opened by Dennis Foggia, wonderful in going to take his third victory in a row on the track named after Marco Simoncelli in Moto3, and then continued with the fourth consecutive victory of Francesco Bagnaia ( we are at 6 in the season) at the end of a duel at the last meter with Enea Bastianini. Those two Ducatis there in front of everyone, closely followed by Maverick Viñales’ Aprilia and the other red, albeit colored yellow and blue, by Luca Marini, reminded us once again how big and how well Italy is. of the bike is doing this season.

those words against Aeneas

But before that arrival in the sprint, that almost contact on the last lap due to the somewhat generous braking of Bastianini, who wanted to prepare for the attack on Bagnaia, also aroused a bit of tension in Ducati, with the .d. of the red, Claudio Domenicali, but also DG Corse, Gigi Dall’Igna, who criticized the maneuver. “Those words didn’t appeal to either Enea or me, because you can do the strategies, but a victory is worth 10 lire and a second place 5, and at the end of the season even the World podium is worth prizes – says Carlo Pernat, who Bastianini is the manager, guest of Paolo Ianieri and Zoran Filicic of the episode of MotoG-Podcast -. We are professionals and money matters too. Sunday I would have preferred to hear happy declarations, for a Sunday like this. Then Enea ran into the house, wearing Gresini’s livery, there was something romantic about what she was trying to do ”.

bagnaia is a champion

In any case, for Pernat Bagnaia’s race was superb: “Sunday the strongest won. Enea tried, and those fast laps that the two signed makes you realize how strong they have gone. Pecco wins a lot because he is a strong one, he has made four victories in a row, one more beautiful than the other, what more can he do, fly to Mars? If people have not understood that he is a champion, then they have not understood anything. Anyway, having said that if I were Ducati I would make a strategy to always have two riders playing for the World Championship, then if two races from the end you need to play as a team, you help each other ”. For Pernat, in any case, “now the needle has moved a lot towards Bagnaia, now you see that Quartararo has a bit of fear against this Ducati, also because he is alone. Aragon will be fundamental for him”.

marquez, back to australia

With an eye on the return of Marc Marquez (“If I were him in these weeks I would go to other tracks and then I would go back to racing in Australia. He has to take his time, it would be a mistake if he returned to Aragon. But next year with his return will be a super championship “), applause to Luca Marini (” Finally he’s there too “) and Viñales (” Rivola made the right choice with him, I criticized him but he was right “), Pernat reveals also who will be Bastianini’s new track engineer in place of Alberto Giribuola, who will go to KTM: “Sometimes you build the bell tower, then you open the door of the church and the altar escapes you. If Pajamas had gone to manage another driver we would have been angry, but he instead is going to occupy a good role. Marco Rigamonti will come in place of him, today with Zarco, who in the past worked with Capirossi and Iannone ”.
