Pecco Bagnaia’s ongoing discomfort from his brutal Aragon accident just five days ago is not affecting his pace over a single lap at least, as he ended Friday at Misano nearly two tenths of a second clear of the MotoGP field
Despite Pecco Bagnaia’s ongoing discomfort from his recent brutal accident at Aragon, he managed to set the pace on Friday at Misano, ending nearly two tenths of a second ahead of the MotoGP field. Bagnaia is still feeling the effects of being dragged through the gravel last Sunday, but Ducati team boss Davide Tardozzi believes salvaging a podium at Misano is possible. With a lap time of 1m30.685s, Bagnaia led the Friday afternoon session by 0.185 seconds over Marc Marquez. Championship leader Jorge Martin finished third, with Pramac Ducati’s Franco Morbidelli just behind. Enea Bastianini, Bagnaia’s teammate, improved his form to secure the fifth spot. Pedro Acosta initially set the pace but dropped to sixth after a late crash.
