Francesco Bagnaia described the French Grand Prix as a race and weekend he would like to forget after crashing on the opening lap and finishing 16th. Despite starting from sixth on the grid, he collided with Enea Bastianini, which also affected Joan Mir. Bagnaia managed to resume the race after changing bikes but ended up with zero points, similar to the sprint race the day before. His lack of front feeling and difficulties in the wet conditions impacted his performance negatively throughout the weekend. Despite challenges, Bagnaia remains determined and focused on finding solutions with his team for better results in the upcoming races.
