Dani Pedrosa: “Ducati superior, it was clearly seen in Sepang.”
KTM tester Dani Pedrosa in an interview with Dazn took stock ahead of the 2023 MotoGp World Championship. Ducati is once again the benchmark bike for everyone: “We can’t say whether Ducati is better or not compared to last year’s bike, but it’s clear that right now they are superior, at least from what we saw in Malaysia. On those days I went to observe on the track and they seemed very fast bikes in every type of corner and on every part of the track, they all seemed at ease. “
On individual riders, Pedrosa has clear ideas: “From what I saw, one of the best was Jorge Martin. Then there is Pecco Bagnaia, who is the defending champion and will try to defend his crown. Last year he was champion with a lot of mistakes, something I’ve never seen. He will only need to fall less to do better. “
The possible dualism with Bastianini: “He will be eager to show his worth and will be motivated by having the world champion by his side.”
