The Winning Formula: Jorge Martin’s Ultimate Challenge to Outpace Competition by a 3-Second Margin

P1racenews AI automatic summary:


MotoGP title contender Jorge Martin’s official warning at Buriram means that any future race victories by less than 3-seconds will effectively remain provisional until his tyre pressure readings have been confirmed.

The Pramac Ducati rider might face a 3-second post-race penalty if he fails to meet the minimum tyre pressures for a certain percentage of the race distances. This could potentially cost him the championship title if he wins on track but is penalized afterwards. Recently, Aleix Espargaro received a time penalty for a tyre pressure offence, dropping him several places in the final standings. With higher starting pressures, Martin could reduce the risk of penalties, but it may affect his grip. To ensure future victories, Martin will need to win by a margin of at least 3 seconds. However, his victory margins so far this season have been quite close. On the other hand, Bagnaia, the current championship leader, has not received any pressure warnings, giving him more flexibility in his starting pressures. Bagnaia holds a slim 13-point lead over Martin going into the final three rounds. Bautista, if it is a one-time wild-card entry, could also afford to run low in the race and accept a post-race warning. The minimum tyre pressures specified by Michelin vary but are around 1.9 bar for the front and 1.7 for the rear.
