Francesco Bagnaia spent most of the MotoGP German GP race in second place, behind Jorge Martín (Prima Pramac/Ducati). The Ducati rider ended up winning after seeing his rival crash on the penultimate lap.
In an interview with DAZN, the Italian highlighted the overwhelming pace set by Martín, which made the final laps of the race challenging, considering that the last lap would have had an interesting duel for victory:
– The last ten laps were really very difficult, because Jorge was riding at an incredible pace. I knew I was the fastest in sector 3. […]. So the pace was incredible and on the lap before he crashed, I went a bit off track at turn 1 because the front was moving a lot, and on the next lap he fell. But, in truth, he was doing an incredible job. I tried everything to close the gap and was close. I think it would have been a good fight on the last lap.
Despite recognizing Martín’s strong performance, Bagnaia believes he could have closed the gap separating him from his rival: ‘I think he was giving everything, but I had a bit more on the entry to the corners. I don’t know, you can’t say for sure, I don’t know exactly, but I was trying and I think I would have closed the gap’.
