Speaking about his triumph, Di🧔 Giannantonio said: “The moment is incredible. The feeling now is a bit more relaxed but it’s because I understand what has hap♐pened.”

Despite 🐻his win, Di Giannantonio looks set to miss out on a place in MotoGP next season, which is very harsh given his recent form.

The It♍al𒉰ian admitted after his win that doors are closing and that he received a negative update recently.  

“I want to be honest and say one thing,” began Di Giannantonio. “After Malay🐽sia something aꦬbout my future happened and it was not a good thing. 

“So I arrived home with a lot of anger but i🐬n a positive way. I said two or three times to my family and friends ൩that in Qatar I’m going to win. 

“My friends said ‘don’t say it, go there and work’. But I sa൲🧸id ‘no, I am going to win, I am going to do it’. But you have to do things well and make it happen. It was not easy but we made it.”

Di Giannantoni🐽o, who has been close to victory on a couple of occasions since the summer break, couldn’t have chosen a better rider to get the better of, a💝s Bagnaia looks set to become a two-time champion. 

Aware of the title fight and what’s therefore at stake, Di Giannantonio said: “It waꦗs tough because he is the world champion. He🍌 has won many races and knows perfectly how to manage the situation. 

“Also, he is playing for the world championship ൲so I had to be really careful. For sure, I d꧋idn’t want to do anything stupid and ruin anybody’s race. 

“I knew that I had something more. At that moಞment I felt sorry for him because I was taking points from him but I had the chance to win.”
