Enea Bastianini admits he “knows the speed” of rivals aiming to grab his ‘25 Ducati
“It will be compl🌸icated. I am confident to stay here"

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Enea Bastianini confessed that his rivals in pursuit of the 2025 Ducati seat are also worthy.
Bastianini is into his second season as a factory Ducati rider but is in serious danger of 🐻being replaced next year.
With his contract expiring, and withܫ teammate and reigning champion Francesco Bagnaia already locked into a long-term deal, Bastianini is vulnerable.
Pramac’s Jorge Martin and Gresini’s Marc M൲arquez both appear likelier to be wearing red next 𓄧year than Bastianini.
“It’s a difficult decision for Ducati because we are the top four in the championship,” Bastianini said ahead of this weekend’﷽s Catalunya MotoGP.
“Pecco already has the c🌜ontract. It can be difficult, the decision.
“At the moment,🌳 my situation is not bad. The Ducati is so fast on the track and has imꦓproved. Every year we add something.
“I can be a fa𒉰ctory rider next year. But, also, I know the s🥀peed of other riders like Jorge and Marc.
🔴“It will be complicated. I am confident to stay here. But let’s see.”
If Bastianini is replaced, Ducati know they might lose him a𝓀ltogether.
Two alternative options w🉐ere put to Bastianini😼 in Barcelona.
He sa🐈id about Aprilia and KTM: “I𝔍t could be an option for the future.
🥀“They have progressed in🧸 the last five years and could be an option.”
Aprilia, in partಌicular, have been credit🔯ed with an interest in Bastianini.
Signing him would give them an Italian poster boy𒊎 for their Italy-based brand.
And the retirement of 🐎Aleix Espargaro has now freed🐓 up room - and put pressure on Aprilia to attract a high-calibre rider to replace their captain.
A good♎ performance this weekend in Barcelona would be good timing for Ba🔯stianini.
He arrives joint-fourth with Marquez in the MotoGP standings after five rounds, 40 points behind leadಌer Martin.
Bastianini has wo🐬n in Barcelona in Moto3 but has never finished better than 10th in the prem꧃ier class.
Last year, he wꦜas involved in an incident moments before Bagnaia’s even scarier crash.
“I remember i🍃n 2022 I crashed, and last year I committed a big mistake on Turn 1,” Bastianini recalled.
“It’s a strange race because the grip✃🧜 is too low. It’s important to have a good base on the set-up to work well.”
