[Rassegna stampa] – Andrea Dovizioso is not a normal championship leader this year. With the rhythm of the ant, taking advantage of the misadventures of others, the Ducati rider found himself at the top of Marc Márquez’s orphan 2020 classification. But there is no joy in this ranking, considering that there is no feeling between him and the Borgo Panigale bike, also in the last year together.
“Today the weather could spoil the plans. And influence the choice of rubber. A difficult decision especially for Andrea Dovizioso, who sank 17th and unable to adapt to the new Michelins: “The level is very high, but when you don’t have the braking in hand, it is hard,” admits Dovi. He is at the head of the World Championship but continues to “fight”, “I cannot be as fast as I would like” Too bad because the race pace is not so bad. Danilo Petrucci also took home only the ninth time, when Jack Miller with the Ducati Pramac signed the fourth time“.

“With the arrival of the new rear tire presented by Michelin, which in turn is driving everyone crazy, Andrea Dovizioso’s braking has become a water gun that has made him vulnerable. “Running like this is frustrating. I am a rational man, normally with the team we put ourselves there, we work and we get the result, but this year it is not happening. Braking has always been my strong point, but now it is where I struggle the most, I cannot be constant and with everyone so close, nothing is enough. It’s not about tracks, because here, although there is less grip, the situation is the same as in Misano, but to adapt to the tire. I was expecting something better at this point in the championship, but I continue to suffer. And if in the past a survival race like the one that awaits us, where tire handling will be important, would have been my bread, now the situation is different. During the race, everyone will have problems with the tires, I can also try to ride smoothly and stable, but starting from behind like that I won’t be able to afford it. I work, I fight, I fight: it is a situation that has lasted many careers and it is not good.“
