The Ducati Lenovo Team heads to Le Mans this weekend on the back of a perfect one-two for Jack Miller and Francesco Bagnaia at Jerez, also putting the Italia💖n into the world championship lead.

Bagnaia is the only rider so far this season to have top six finishes in all four rounds, includ🎃ing second places at the last two events, handing him a two-point advantage over Yamaha's Fabio Quartararo.

Bagnaia qualified a competitive seventh for Pramac in the dry at Le Mans last year,𒆙 but could only manage 13th in the wet race.

"I'm really excited to be back in 🐭action✤ this weekend," Bagnaia said.

"In the last two Grands Prix, we've been able to get some good results on tracks where we've suffered in the past. I hope we will continue to be a💛s competitive also at the next two circuits [Le Mans and Mugello], which are more favourable to the characteristics of our bike.

"Last year at Le Mans, I managed to qualify seventh, even though I struggled with the low temperatures in the early stages of the weekend. I felt strong, but the rai♊n then distu𝕴rbed my race.

"We'll see what the weather is like this weekend. My feeling with the D🦋esmosedici continues to be very gooꦦd, so I'm confident that I can do a good race also in the wet conditions".

Miller's first Ducati win has put him up to sixth in the world championship, 27 points behind his team-mate, having suffered a 𝔍DNF in the previous Portimao round, where he was also riding after recent arm-pump surgery.

The Australian usually goes well at Le Mans, fin🅘ishing fourth for Pramac in 2018 and 2019, then fighting for a podium last year in the wet until a late technical problem.

"I am super happy to be ba🍌ck racing in France this weekend!" Miller said. "Last year I had a strong French GP. I was second in qualifying and, after a good start, I staye🃏d within the leading group. Unfortunately, with seven laps to go, I had to retire due to a technical problem.

"Winning the Spanish GP two weeks𝄹 ago has definitely boosted my confidence. My feeling with the bike is good, I had no issues with the right forearm now that it has been operated on, so I am confident that I can do another good race this weekend".
