BURIRAM (THAILANDIA) (ITALPRESS) – There are April and Marco Bezzecchi in the group of those who smile after the two days of MotoGP test in Thailand. On today’s day, in fact, the Rimini driver scored the best all-time time on the Buriram circuit, stopping the stopwatch in 1’28′′668. But that of the “Bez” is not the only positive result for the Venetian motorhome, increasingly protagonist in the Motomondiale in recent years. In the second place in the day-2 there is also the Japanese Ai Ogura of the Trackhouse team, which closes the day in 1’28.765. Tris of Ducati behind the first two. Third place is Marc Marquez, the protagonist of a fall that caused him an arm abrasion. “Nothing important – said Spanish at Sky Sport -. It can happen. I am happy with how the tests went.”.
Behind the world champion in charge here is the twice winner of the title in class Queen Pecco Bagnaia, which after a complicated season could leave the Ducati. In the last days we talked about a passage just in April. What is certain is that he already knows his destination. “In a few days many announcements of many teams will come out: expect mine too – his words during yesterday’s press point –. I’ve already decided, followed my instincts. I chose what I thought was more right for me.”.
In case he joined Noale’s stable, Bagnaia would take the place of Jorge Martin, rival and winner in the race at the title 2024 near Yamaha, to make a pair in the box with Bezzecchi. “I don’t know, these are not things that concern me so much – the comment of the Romagnolo driver in Sky on the possibility –. There is definitely in the team who is dedicated to these things.” Returning to Sunday, there is Alex Marquez in fifth place, followed by Pedro Acosta, for which it seems safe to pass in Ducati Factory in 2027 instead of Bagnaia. Eighth time without overhaul for Jorge Martin, returning to these tests after jumping Sepang’s first sessions. “I’m happy, I didn’t have great expectations – said April Spanish to Sky –. I have changed some things in the driving style, now I can drive the bike in a natural way and I am confident that it will be a good season”. The MotoGP World Championship will begin in Thailand next week, with the first GP of 2026 on the Buriram track.
