Rome, 9 November (LaPresse) – ‘Today we took a small step forward compared to yesterday. I was able to be more incisive, even though I wasn't fast enough to fight for the podium, but I was pushing hard. He closed in front of me, which can happen when you push. Third place in the standings? Bezzecchi definitely deserves it more.’ So said Francesco Bagnaia, Ducati rider, to Sky Sport after the Portuguese Grand Prix. Ahead of the final race in Valencia, the Turin native added: ‘I want to finish the season with the best possible result. This year has put us to the test. The Valencia tests are not so crucial for development, but we will try some solutions, and I sincerely hope that my feeling will be better than it has been this year.’
