A very different bike from the one we had in 2020 and we need time to adapt to it.
Luca was on track with the Ducati Desmosedici GP21 the bike that Pecco used in Valencia last week. “ An exciting day for everyone: a sort of first day of school for Luca and Marco and all the guys in the Team who made their debut today in the Top class. A special thanks to the whole Team: they did a really great job to get here ready and they have supported me as much as possible.” Marco Bezzecchi Pablo Nieto It is the first testing session, we don’t have strange goals just to find the best position and start to get familiar with power, engine brake and chassis. It was thrilling, it is impressive and very special. “ What a day! The Ducati Desmosedici GP21 is really fast! I started step by step, to better understand the bike.

I need to understand tyres better and how to work with the electronics there are many things I need to focus on, but the base is not a bad one.” Marco Bezzecchi – P25 We have plenty of work to do to bridge the gap to the leaders, but I’m in awe right now.
The bike is simply fantastic as it has all the things I’ve always looked for in a motorcycle: the way of braking, the rideability inside the corner, the mid-corner and corner exit feeling, the power… everything is there. Tomorrow, however, the goal is to improve the lap time and the pace.” We didn’t work too much on the bike today, we have just started to understanding how is the bike and what differences there are compared to the one we used in 2020. It will be a challenge for everyone, I already know some people from Moto2, others guys are new. I’m also happy because I pushed so much to have each of them in the crew. It is a pleasure to be able to race for this Team: a great group, the atmosphere is special, positive vibes and we are all motivated to do our best. “ It was a great day: the Ducati GP21 is fantastic! Nice to handling, a lot of positive feelings and feedbacks. The bike is much tamer, and a lot quicker last year’s bike had great potential, but it was really difficult to ride.” Enea Bastianini Luca Marini – P11 There will be work to do and issues will arise, but at the moment I’m happy. Lap-times came quick and despite the wind I was able to set competitive times throughout the whole day. Let’s say it is what I was expecting: an easier bike to ride, and I felt like it had been mine for a long time already. I’m happy with the bike and with how the guys worked as a team. Marini was the first rider to head out of pitlane, as both he and fellow Italian Bastianini got to grips with the GP21 Ducati – as did Diggia, with Bezzecchi lapping on a GP19 at first.īecome a Patron for MCNews! Enea Bastianini – P3 Reigning Constructors’ Champions Ducati, meanwhile, now have eight Desmosedicis in their arsenal in MotoGP as Team Gresini Racing MotoGP debuted with Bastianini and rookie Fabio Di Giannantonio and VR46 Racing Team began their premier class adventure with Luca Marini and rookie Marco Bezzecchi. New parts and bikes are like lollipops for kids to us, a lot of motivation!” Pol Espargaro The plan for tomorrow is to work more for the future and based on what we have seen today, that looks promising. Tomorrow we have another day of testing which will hopefully be a bit better. Today was spent getting comfortable after our huge crash. But it is really important for the team, and also me, to make some laps with the new bike and get as much information as possible.
“ I feel pretty well used today, there’s some pain in my ribs and in my wrist and I was struggling to ride a little bit today because of it. Pol Espargaro managed to get 45 laps under his belt, finishing P13 on the timesheets, and Marquez ended the day in P16. Both were also incredibly busy: Marquez completed 75 laps with fastest man Nakagami lapping 68 times. Both riders were riding both the 20 machines, important to compare how the two feel and how new components feel in comparison. Pol Espargaro is still a bit beaten up but he managed to complete 45 lapsīoth Nakagami and Alex Marquez (LCR Honda Castrol) were testing the new bike on Day 1. HRC have been working tirelessly to bring a new bike to the party. Engine, chassis, aero, air intake… you name it. It’s the only machine at the test that looks completely new, with every other manufacturer having variations and adaptations from what we saw in 2021. The Spaniard rode the Jerez Test, vital with Marc Marquez (Repsol Honda Team) absent, as we got to see HRC’s radically new RC213V in action again. Arguably the most important news for HRC on Day 1 though was the presence of Pol Espargaro (Repsol Honda Team) after his huge Valencia GP crash. As we saw earlier in the year, Honda have a seemingly brand-new bike for 2022.
