About a year after suffering a complicated injury in Portimão, Enea Bastianini returned to the circuit at the 2024 MotoGP Portugal GP to finish in second place. A kind of redemption, achieved after a race in which he was always fighting for a podium finish.
The performance of the Italian Ducati rider earned praise from the team’s general manager, Gigi Dall’Igna. The leader wrote in his usual column published on Linkedin:
– Determination and grit for a very well-deserved result. The most important thing for him was to be up there at the front in this race, he needed this, especially on a track where he crashed. We are at the beginning of the season and, without a doubt, this second place is like a victory.
