Pecco Bagnaia is still searching for his best form at the start of this season, and Neil Hodgson believes that in Argentina, an aspect that the Italian needs to work on was once again evident.
The TNT Sports commentator spoke about the former world champion’s weekend in Argentina, starting with what was seen at the beginning of the sessions, quoted by Crash: ‘It was a typical FP1 for Pecco – he wasn’t comfortable on the bike, he was making mistakes, and he was riding over the limit’.
For the Brit, the reason is clear, and he immediately pointed out how the situation happens in the opposite way… with Marc Márquez:
– I know why. His Achilles’ heel, his weakness, has always been, even when winning titles, that he needs time to get into the rhythm of the weekend. The problem is that the rider next to him, Marc, is the opposite. He goes right to the limit.
So far, what has happened is that Marc Márquez has dominated the two rounds held so far, with pole positions and victories in both the Sprint and Sunday races, something that Bagnaia has not yet achieved, although Ducati’s confidence in him and his abilities is total.
