Ducati Lenovo Team and Borgo Panigale have a very complicated decision ahead of them: who will be Francesco Bagnaia’s next teammate?
Carlo Pernat, Enea Bastianini’s agent, commented on the possibilities that exist and spoke about Ducati’s situation, according to www.motosan.es.
– Ducati’s decision, which will probably come after the Mugello GP, is blocking everyone: KTM, Aprilia and Yamaha. At the moment, nobody wants to make contracts, maybe there are verbal agreements, which have their value. I understand Ducati because they have three very strong riders and if at the beginning they were thinking of keeping two riders, now their mentality has changed. I have the impression that they want to keep two and so they’re going to push especially with Pramac, but Yamaha is pushing hard with Campinoti. In these days there will certainly be talks, in my opinion, before Mugello Pramac will also decide what to do.
He added that Martin’s performance could influence the Italian manufacturer’s decision: ‘It’s a possibility, if they decide on Jorge, in my opinion Ducati will make offers to Marc and Enea to stay with the factory bike in a satellite team. I think that’s the path they’re following.
