Paolo Ciabatti claims Ducati don’t want team orders to be a factor in the 2023 MotoGP title fight.
So far this season, Ducati has not used team orders, although there was a situation in the Qatar MotoGP where it seemed like they might have. A message was sent to Fabio Di Giannantonio’s dash, similar to one used in the past to tell Jorge Lorenzo not to attack Andrea Dovizioso. However, the meaning was different this time and Fabio was faster than everyone else, so there was no need to restrict him. Jorge Martin had a disappointing race after a strong performance in qualifying, dropping to tenth place. Di Giannantonio’s maiden win was well-deserved and it was a great day for Italian riders, with Pecco second and Marini third. This result means that Ducati will have a 1-2-3 in the championship with Marco in third place.
