Disappointment Bagnaia
Surely Pecco Bagnaia and Ducati expected a better farewell season than the disappointing 2026 that is unfolding. The two-time MotoGP world champion ended the Aragon weekend with a bitter haul of 0 points, repeating the disastrous Silverstone weekend. In short, Bagnaia and Ducati no longer seem to be on the same wavelength.

Pecco in a dead end
Bagnaia left Aragon with his morale low and was very open with journalists about his difficulties.
Besides the words given to Sky Sport, the Piedmontese spoke about the same topics also with web and print media, reiterating his clear frustration.
“We have very little grip compared to others and we have to do the best with what we have. I crashed in 2 races in a row and I’ve really had enough. We deserve better“, he explained in statements reported by As.
Bagnaia then spoke about the difficult situation he is living through: “I always give my best in every session. I come to my place trying to be as clear as possible because I know everyone is looking for a solution that doesn’t come. When you have a weekend like this or like Silverstone… Even trying hard you are 1″ from the fastest rider, it’s mortifying and above all humiliating. It could be one of the lowest moments of my career, because at the moment I don’t see a way out“.

But with the Panigale…
Bagnaia at Aragon became the Ducati rider with the most GPs: “I can say that I gave everything I had for Ducati, in every situation. And it’s hard to accept that it went like this, despite my best efforts. I find myself in a situation where I can’t ride naturally with this bike. And if I do something different, I fall. With the Panigale I fly, I’m incredibly fast and riding it is a huge relief. Every time I ride another bike, I breathe a sigh of relief, because I realize I still know how to ride a bike“.
