Francesco Bagnaia unable to pass in Spanish MotoGP: “I’m not happy with races like this”
Francesco Bagnaia was frustrat🍸ed by familiar issues🐻 as he was unable to make passes in the Spanish MotoGP.

Two-time MotoGP World Champion 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Francesco Bagnaia has admitte𒊎d he’s “not happy” with his Spanish Grand Prix, having found himself unable to move forwards during the 25-lap race at Jerez.
Bagnaia had struggled to third place in the Sprint on Saturday, and was there again inꦉ Sꦑunday’s Grand Prix, having spent the majority of the race trying – unsuccessfully – to find a way past Fabio Quartararo.
“I’m not happy with races like this – I can’t do anything again,” the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Ducati Lenovo Team rider told the post-race press conference in Jer𓃲ez.
“I was quite happy for the first three or four🐎 laps, that my pace and my feeling was very good, but as soon as I arrived to Fabio [Quartararo] I wasn’t having any chance to overtake.
“Every time arrived in turns seven, eight, 11, 12, I was losing a lot, the front was locking a lot and I was losing it everywhere. So, it’s a shame that it’s l𒀰ike this but it’s what is t🎐he situation right now.”
Bagnaia added that Sunday’s race was “better” than Saturday’s Sprint, but was nonetheless frustrated that he is continuing to run into the same issues this year and even suggested that 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez ra𝐆n into the same issue when he crashed at turn eight while following Bagnaia.
“Today I was better than y🔥esterday – at l🌱east I overtook someone, so it was better,” he said.
“The problem this season is always theও same: when you are behind someone, you start to feel that the front is locking everyღwhere and it’s a problem.
“For the first time that Marc [Marquez] wasn’t lead♛ing from the start and 🐼was behind someone with a similar pace, he lost the front, because every time when you arrive in that position, when you release the brake you lose the front.
“It’s somꦛething that I’m getting used to because it’s from the first race that I’m in this situation, and also today I lost the front many times: turn eight, turns 11 and 12, turns four and five. We don’t know why.
“We are trying to understand the situation because Marc is very good to ride everything, honestly speaking, [but] I cannot do it. I want to feel better, to have a good feeling with the front, and in this situation it’s quite difficult because it’s something that is new for me because last year I never had th༒is kind of feeling and I was doing things on fast corners that this season I cannot do.
“Maybe we will have to understand and change the balance of the new bike to diffe൲rent solutions because𝓰 it’s difficult like this.”
The Italian added that 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alex Marquez, on the Desmosedꦬici GP24 he himself rode last year, is exhibiting the same strengths this year as Bagnaia had on the GP24 last year.
“Looking at Alexꦛ [Marquez], ⭕he was super-strong like I was last year,” he said.
“So, we need to maybe change something ཧon the bike to change the balance, so tomorrow will be an important day.”
So, are the problems Bagnaia is encountering this💜 season unique to the Desmosedici GP25?
“I think💫 that the GP25 has more potential than the GP24 because it has more acceleration, more top spee💛d, on the brakes it’s very good, on straights it’s very good,” he said.
“I don’t know why because the only thing that is the same is the chassis, so theoretically the balance is very similar or the same as the [GP24], but last year I was never having this problem apart from in th♛e Sprint and in the long races I was always able to follow other riders – for example in this track I followed Jorge Martin for more than 10 laps and I was not having any kind of issue,” he said.
“This season I cannot do it and, looking at🎉 the data, it’s quite clear that if you put [Alex Marquez’s] lap time with my lap times from last year, it’s very similar his potential on fast corners; an✱d if you put my one [of 2025] with last year’s I can’t do it.
"The front looks softer, so maybe we need to understand the situation and try new solutions, but it’s not completely correct to go back to the GP24, 🦋also because Marc is winning everything so it’s also difficult when your teammate is w♐inning like this.”
Bagnaia is hopin🌌g to use Monday’s post-race test to resolve some of the issues he is currently experiencing.
“Luꩵckily, we have an important test tomorrow; we will work a lot to find a better balance because right now we are struggling,” he sai🍎d.
“It’s just strange that corners where I was super-strong last year, that were 11 and 12, this season I was struggling a lot – even mor☂e when I was behind.”

Alex joined the team in August of 2024 hav♏ing covered consumer and racing motorcycle news at Visordown for two years.
