Ducati’s Davide Tardozzi has warned that 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Pecco Bagnaia must “manage the problem”.

Factory Ducati rider Bagnaia has trailed behind teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez all season, and spent much of the camꦦpaiꦆgn behind Gresini’s Alex Marquez too.

Bagnaia won the Americas MotoGP owin𒁏g to a Marc Marquez crash from the lead, but then couldn’t capitalise in Qatar at a circuit which was supposed to suit his riding style.

Bagnaia was promoted to second, after finish꧅ing third on-track behind winner Marquez and Maverick Vinales, who 🏅was later demoted for tyre pressure.

It was a decent return given he was 1𝓡1th in qualifying and eighth in the sprint race.

Ducati team manager Tardozzi was asked if Bagnaia’s issues on a Saturday were “a bike probl🐈em, or a Pe▨cco problem?”

Tardozzi responded to TNT Sports: “It’s something that belongs ꦜto 🔜us, to always give him the right bike.

“Pecco is now really demanding on setting. He is not the guy who wants theౠ ride a bikeꦅ which does not suit his riding style.

“This creates a problem for his team.

“In the end, th꧟ey finally found a solution, mainl🧸y for the Sunday.

“We still༒ have a problem with him, with the balance of the bike, with a small fuel tank. It creates some problems.

“This is since we had Saturday races.

“But Pecco must think that🔯 he is a champion, he must manage the problem.

“One thing we have to work onꦦ with him: don’t think about the problem, manage the💎 problem.

“The bike has very good points… use it.”

Pecco Bagnaia 'had no confidence' in Qatar

Bagnaia is third in the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:MotoGP standings, 26 points shy of leader Marc Marquez.

The season now heads to Europe, starting in Jerez on April 24-26, where Bagnaia must hope to gain some ground back on his red-hꦅot teammate.

But his weaknesses on a Friday and a Saturday continue to hamper the two-ti꧑me c🅷hampion.

“Honestly, we still don’t know what happened,” Tardozzi said about Bagnaia’s dreadful qua🀅lifyi𒀰ng and sprint race in Qatar.

“It seemed he had no confidence on the front bra🦂kes, and entering theꦡ corners.

“[Sunday morning] during the warm-up we tried something on the setඣtings, with the balance of the bike, finally it worked.

“He was not c🐓onfident on the brakes, t🐻his was the main point.”

Bagnaia’s P3, which became P2 when Vinales was hit by a tyre pressure penalty, at least provided some reason for op🏅timism.

“Pecco came here with huge expectation because he was th🦩inking it was a race to win,” Tardozzi said.

“But Marc is Marc, he was very fast.

“We were surprised by Maverick who did a fantast🌌ic race.

“But after a bad Saturday weꦬ are very happy with the [second] place of Pecco.

“He r𝐆ecovered his speed. The next race is one that will suit his riding style.

“In🌠 the end, first and [second]? We are very hap𝐆py.”
