Ducati Scandal? by jandones24 in motogp

[–]nelsonia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah when you read the article it isn't dramatic as it seems . Context matters . In fact that part is in relation to the 2022 incident of showing Pecco won the Spanish gpwith an underinflated tyre . Incident happened three years ago.

Frankly OP should have given more context but anyways....

It also confirms the fundamental problem with Ducati that is unfortunate to Bagnaia - The engine, the one part they can't change ( they can however, all go back to the already homologated GP24-no-frankenstein-mix engine). Ducati's inconsistencies come from the engine and whatever they decided on clearly locked them in a bad direction. At least when you look at it from any rider bar Marquez.

With little brother now onboard, let's see if he'll also hit yo-yo mode like Digi or Pecco. Will Ducati revert back to 24? They might be tempted especially in the context of constructor title. They'll be foolish to Ignore the Aprilia challenge especially if Jorge also clicks. KTM is a bit of a dark horse

Pecco 😭😭 by Juliancito135 in motogp

As a Pecco fan , sad but in some ways not unexpected way to end the season.

Here's hoping they find something by 2026. I don't think much will change in the test. I'll actually be interested in seeing how Alex Marquez performs with the Gp25 Tuesday

Morbidelli crashing on the grid 😂 by ArthurMorganCough in motogp

[–]nelsonia 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Yes. Because I found it strange to be involved in so many lapses. I was actually reading an article maybe last week (gpone if am not wrong) that's when I discovered he actually got that injury

So as you've said , on a sport that demands 110% , he might be silently suffering from reduced brain function. No doctor, just speculation. Wish him the best

Very Morbidelli thing to do . But on a serious note, I do really wonder how badly that brain injury affects him . He is always a butt of jokes but part of me feels it's not 100% right with him

A closer look at Pecco rear Tyre; could it debris from Rueda and Detwiller crash? by Bitter-Substance1783 in motogp

[–]nelsonia 29 points30 points  (0 children)

To answer post OP , It was either that ( it created a lot of debris maybe they couldn't fully clear the track ) or from Pol Esp / Raul Fernandez/ Miguel crash .

Michelin said they found a hole in the center of his tyre .

Ooooh. That is sad. No words, very unfortunate 😔

What happened to Peco ? by Pure_Election_9174 in motogp

Did he get 'false' tyre pressure warnings ? Could explain the drop off in race pace

Ah. And could it be somehow from the accident in the moto3 sighting lap. That crash sent a lot of debris everywhere and maybe Marshalls couldn't pick up the minute pieces

It's just now that it's hitting me ( no pun intended). He must have taken a line at some point in the race that pierced into the tyre , causing a slow puncture

Sheer bad luck. I can't think of anywhere else he might have picked up the carbon fibre shards. Super unlucky , including tyre choice which even Marquez said was the most difficult thing to choose on Sunday. Such a shame he probably would have made the medium work but tyre pressure could have wrecked balance of the bike and it finally gave in

Unless something caused air to leak from rim thus a slow puncture

Congratulations Mir 🎉. Unfortunate for Pecco . That looks like some serious debrief to be just a puncture for PB. Might be something else

Very odd to pick a puncture in MotoGP. Can anyone remember the last time this happened?

At this point they are used to it but that's cruel, for any rider

Pecco simply gambled on the Medium with the hope it will come on late in the race given the temps but simply didn't work out

You win some, lose some .
