Francesco Bagnaia is experiencing his best phase in MotoGP and achieved his third pole position in a row in Austin. The Ducati rider who graduated from the VR46 Riders Academy then started the American GP from first place on the grid and that made Valentino Rossi happy what he saw on Saturday.
Il Dottore did not hide his satisfaction from the press with the form factor of his “student” and his riding on Ducati and admitted that he likes to see him in action as much as Ducati:
– Pecco is impressive. It is the third pole position in a row and with a remarkable lap. He’s in great shape and great fun, great pleasure to see him ride because he rides the Ducati at the front. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Ducati like this. That’s why I’m very happy for Pecco.
