MotoGP, Bagnaia are aware that the next two GPs are important to score points on Quartararo

Coming back from summer break, Pecco Bagnaia appears full of energy and confidence, but he is also aware that beating Quartararo and getting close in the standings will not be an easy task, although two GPs at the Red Bull Ring should be in his favor. The Italian has clear ideas about what to do but his only doubts concern Valentino. Rossi has announced a special press conference for the afternoon and everyone is wondering what the announcement will look like.

“Honestly, I know as much as you do – Pecco spread his arms – I read about the conference this morning, I wasn’t aware of it, I think the other Academy riders. It was a surprise, we will find out what he will decide, but every choice will be the right one ”.

While we don’t have to wait long to find out the future of Valentino, we won’t see what cards Pecco has to play until Sunday.

“In the end I just have to finish in front of Fabio more often than he does in front of me – he said – I expect that the work during this break, both analyzing the previous races and in the gym, will be of help for the second half of the season. I know what to do, I hope I’ve already taken a step forward. Ducati has worked a lot in the last few weeks and I decided not to go on vacation to improve myself. “

The Red Bull Ring is the right way to demonstrate this.

“From now on we can talk about the championship and I know these two races are fundamental for me to score points – Said Bagnaia – We have an advantage on this track, unlike Yamaha, which this year has also shown itself to be competitive on normally difficult tracks. But not only will we be fast, KTM and Honda will also be very strong. My goal is to get the best possible result by finishing ahead of Quartararo.

Speaking of KTM, Pedrosa will also be on the track.

“And I expect it to be very quick – Pecco assured me – he’s going to be a bit of a bulldog because he created grooves here on this track. But I have to concentrate more on the drivers who drive throughout the championship. “

He wants to catch up with Quartararo and hopes that no other GPs will be canceled this last part of the season.

“We’ll do what they tell us, and we’ll do it the best we can. I will try to be quick and consistent. I’m more than 40 points behind Fabio, that’s a lot, but I’ll try to do everything and more to catch them up. Let’s hope there’s enough time! “.
