Bagnaia “not scared” of facing Q1 battle in MotoGP Indonesia qualifying
World champion Francesco Bagnaia is currently leading the standings by only three points ahead of Jorge Martin, after his 66-point lead has decreased since the Catalan GP. Bagnaia had a challenging Friday in Indonesia, finishing in 16th place due to a mistake on his final lap. However, he remains confident and not worried, referencing his previous success in coming through Q1 and winning the race in Jerez. Bagnaia acknowledges that starting behind in tomorrow’s race could be problematic due to the difficulty of overtaking on the track. Despite the setback, Bagnaia maintains a positive attitude and jokes that he dropped out of Q2 to gain more attention following Marc Marquez’s announcement. He explains that while he felt strong on his bike, the electronics did not perform as expected, resulting in an aggressive rear end. Bagnaia believes this issue can be easily improved compared to a setup problem.
