Pecco’s crisis
The last two years of Pecco Bagnaia at Ducati have been far from the best seasons of the Italian champion. So the decision to part ways was natural and the Piedmontese accepted a multi-year offer with Aprilia, hoping to regain the sparkle of a few years ago.
Certainly the last few months seem like a slow agony of a relationship now exhausted, with Pecco unable to show any bursts of competitiveness either in qualifying or in the race.
Pernat sounds the alarm for Bagnaia
In statements reported by Massimo Calandri in La Repubblica, the well-known manager Carlo Pernat explained: “Marquez is a cannibal. And Pecco has not been mentally strong as a world champion should have been. Technique and riding are not lost, it’s a matter of the mind“, emphasized the Italian.

Pernat then continued: “Today Bagnaia only sees enemies around him, while Ducati has every interest in supporting him. What a crime. When your chain drops, it’s hard to recover. Let’s hope that next year, at Aprilia, the desire for revenge will make him the Pecco he once was“, he concluded.
