Ducati’s Davide Tardozzi at Valencia MotoGP: “Jorge Martin’s behaviour ridiculous, like Marc Marquez sometimes does”
The Ducati team manager’s thoughts on the Pramac rider continuously following 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia on Friday were clear during the session.
Tardozzi ൩made his presence known when Martin came into the pitlane, before h✃e set off and started following Bagnaia again.
Martin is at a 21-point defic♚it heading into Saturda💖y’s sprint but championship leader Bagnaia must head into Q1.
“Jorge's b👍ehaviour? Of course he can, but it's not that the two mark 💛each other, only one does it,” Tardozzi was quoted by .
“Today Pecco didn't have his best day of the yꦺear, and this is beyond doubt, but certainly not because of Martin's marking.
“We simply had less today, so we went slowly.
“Then Martin's behaviour is ridiculous like 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez sometimes does.
“It's okay, it can be done and it's right.
“He wants to push himself to win the two races.
“Maybe he'll make it, but we have to get the points we need an☂d not th༒ink about anything else.
“I have always criticised certain things and I still do so today, because fo๊r a certain championship level they are not appropriate and edifying for a rider."
Tardozzi had previously criticised Ma⭕rquez for towing tactics - before the Honda rider confirmed he would join Gresini Ducati next year.
The 🥀tensions within Ducati were surely heightened by Martin’s antagoniꩵsm on Friday.
Tardozzi and c♊o had largely kept a cool head before this weekend’s season-finale, pitting two Ducati riders on equal machinery against each other.
But Saturday could be fireworks as the Itali𒀰an manufacturer’s two riders vie for the t❀itle.
