TERMAS DE RIO HONDO (ARGENTINA) (ITALPRESS) – After a double podium in Thailand, Pecco Bagnaia is trying to up his game. MotoGp stops over the weekend in Argentina and the two-time world champion – 23 points in the standings – is aiming to get back in the fight for top positions however much at the Termas de Rio Hondo circuit he has never managed to score a win. “It’s back to racing in Argentina, a very fast track that can adapt well to the Desmosedici – is optimistic the 28-year-old rider from Turin – In Thailand it was not an easy GP, we were fast, solid, we hit two third places, but we were not perfect. We need to work on some factors and aspects to be fully competitive and be able to have our say at the weekend.”
Marc Marquez in the hunt for an encore. Having archived the Thai GP with his first win of the season, first in the sprint and then in the long race, the Spanish Ducati rider comes to Argentina as the leader of the standings with 37 points. At the Termas de Rio Hondo circuit, where the factory Ducati has scored only one victory (Bezzecchi in 2023), Marquez boasts three top-class wins but will be riding the Desmosedici GP for the first time. The goal is to adapt as soon as possible and regain riding sensations similar to those in Buriram. “I’m particularly happy to return, after a year’s absence, to race in Argentina, a track that I like and where I’ve managed to be fast and competitive in the past – his feelings – We come from a practically perfect weekend in Thailand, where we managed to make the most of what we did during testing and be incisive in the race. This has really charged me up and I can’t wait to get back on track.”
