Jorge Martin’s tactics during practice at the Valencia MotoGP have been called “ridiculous” by Davide Tardozzi.
During the session, Ducati team manager Tardozzi expressed his clear thoughts on Martin’s continuous following of Bagnaia on Friday. Despite being at a 21-point deficit, Martin’s behavior of marking Bagnaia was described as ridiculous, similar to Marquez’s actions. Tardozzi emphasized the need to focus on gaining the necessary points rather than engaging in such tactics, which he believes are inappropriate for a rider at a certain championship level. The tensions within Ducati were further heightened by Martin’s antagonism, and Saturday’s race could potentially bring about fireworks as the Ducati riders compete for the title.
