Martinator ‘little ant’ in the Barcelona Sprint
Jorge Martin in Barcelona he unusually finished the Sprint race in fourth place, but Francesco Bagnaia’s fall doesn’t make the balance so negative, on the contrary. The Ducati Pramac rider has only one point less than his direct competitor, who is now Marc Marquez.
Martinator commented on a Sprint that started very badly: “I wanted to be fourth at the first corner but instead I was eleventh because I got a bad start and had to close the throttle to avoid hitting Rins. To recover I asked a lot of the rear tire in the first few kilometres and I paid for this factor throughout the race”Martin’s words after the race reported by the Spanish newspaper AS.
“I didn’t expect Bagnaia’s fallit was a bit like mine in Jerez with the bike practically straight at a moment when you usually don’t fall – added Martin – if you have pressure? She has the same one that we all have, winning in MotoGP is difficult. Today’s top-6 has the potential to win tomorrow, we will have fun. The fight for the title now that it includes an eight-time world champion like Marc Marquez is even more difficult.”
