After a nightmare start to the Barcelona weekend, Francesco Bagnaia is keeping his expectations in check ahead of his home Misano MotoGP.
Having faced disappointment in Barcelona, Francesco Bagnaia is now approaching the upcoming Misano round without setting any expectations.
While a major set-up change at Balaton Park had initially offered hope, Bagnaia’s struggles with corner entry continued in Barcelona, where he had to revert to a more standard set-up.
Despite a challenging qualifying session and Sprint race in Barcelona, Bagnaia showed signs of progress on Sunday, finishing in seventh place.
His preference for the GP-fuel tank seems to improve his performance on race day, providing better traction and faster corner exits.
Looking ahead to Misano, a track where he has enjoyed success in the past, Bagnaia aims for a more consistent and competitive weekend, hoping to rekindle his winning form from previous seasons.
