Third place in the Spanish MotoGP for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia came just behind second-placed 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio Quartararo on the Yamaha.

Quartararo’s performance gave a podium to a manufacturer other than Ducati for the first time in 2025, 🥂having been between 0.5 seconds and one second ahead of Bagnaia since he was passed ꦿfor the lead by Alex Marquez on lap 11 of 25.

It was a performance that impressed Bagnaia, who was unable to get ꦬclose enough to make a pass on the French rider after the first lap due to front end confidence issues, and who recognised the performance deficit of🐟 Quartararo’s YZR-M1 compared to his own Desmosedici GP25.

“That with a slower bike than mine – mine is a bike that allows me to win or to overtake easily every rider – he was doing an amazing job,” Bagnaia told the post-race press conference following the Spanish Grand Pri♉x when asked what in particular about Quartararo’s ride had impress💯ed him.

“I cannot be close [to him],” Bagnaia continued.

“He was really strong in fast corꦕners, he was really strong in the braking, was squeezin🔯g every detail of his bike and was super-fast and I cannot get close.

“Even if I was arriving to him, like 0.0 seconds, I was qu🐲ite sure that exiting from the last corner or on the other straight I was overtaking him easily꧟ on the straight.

“But it was not the case because everywhere he was exiting so🧔 smooth, so fast, and he was really strong.”

Quartararo’s faultless defensive ride earned h🙈im his first podium since the 2023 Indonesian Grand Prix, a day after securing his first pole since the 2022 trip to Mandalika.

For Bagnaia, his inability to find a way past the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Monster Energy Yamaha rider consigne💦d him to a third place finish for the third time in five Grands Prix. 

However, a DNF for his 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Ducati Lenovo teammate, Marc Marquez, meant that Bagnaia’s deficit to the championship lead – now in the hands o🍸f Alex Marquez – is now reduced to 20 points ahead of the French Grand Prix at Le Mans on 9–11 May.
