Ducati got off to a strong start to the season and even won two races with Jack Miller. The Desmosedici GP21 were a constant presence on the podium, where they were also achieved by Francesco Bagnaia and Johann Zarco – the latter on the Pramac satellite is second in the championship with four second places in seven laps.
Carlo Pernat, Driver Manager, told GPOne.com that the # 5 is in great shape: “Zarco looks very competitive, he is picking up points with a number of good podiums. He even managed to attack Bagnaia and it looks like the rider in great shape right now is definitely Zarco on his Ducati.
Nonetheless, Pernat understands that Ducati could face some problems at the moment: “However, I got the slight impression that this Ducati might have some problems, as Bagnaia, who controlled it better, seems to have more problems than he should. In the first few races Miller and Bagnaia looked very strong, Zarco is a great rider too, but maybe the Ducati could run into problems.
