For the Doctor it is the second consecutive fall after Misano, while Dovizioso climbs from the first to the fourth position in the world rankings.
The disappointment of a nation summarized in two pictures: these are the images of the falls of Valentino Rossi and Andrea Dovizioso in the GP of Catalonia held at the Montmelò circuit. In fact, expectations were high for the Italian drivers in Barcelona. Pole Position for Morbidelli, third place for Rossi, with Quartararo in second place confirming Yamaha’s competitiveness on the Catalan circuit. Everything happens a few laps from the end, with Quartararo in the lead and Rossi chasing Morbidelli’s error in braking that opened the door for both of them to the first two positions. At the turn 2 direction change Rossi loses the lead and ends up on the ground, fortunately without physical consequences, but the same cannot be said for morale. In fact, 46 had a good pace to keep up with Quartararo, keeping alive the possibility of attacking him in the final, when tire wear would have played a key role. Hopes that end in the gravel, along with the possibility of returning to success after a long fast and getting to the podium number 200 of his extraordinary career.
MotoGP Barcelona: Dovi’s disappointment
–
The Barcelona MotoGP race got off to a bad start for the Italian riders with the crash of Andrea Dovizioso. The Ducati de Forlì rider ended up on the gravel after a contact with Zarco in the early stages after the start. The worst finish at the end of a weekend in which Dovizioso never found the right feelings with Ducati. “To tell the truth the Ducati was not so bad when the tire is worn, I have problems to act with new tires” Dovizioso’s first words after the race, where he did not hide his disappointment: “I am disappointed, especially because it was not up to me I had a good start but if you are in the middle of the group it is normal that certain things can happen “. A disappointment especially considering the world ranking, in which he abandoned the lead to climb to fourth place. Everything is possible from a world perspective, especially in an anomalous year like this, as long as we reverse the course of the last races, decidedly difficult for Andrea Dovizioso.
