168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Valentino Rossi ana𒀰lysed Pecco Bagnaia, who enjoyed a perfect weekend at the Austrian MotoGP.

The reigning MotoGP champio🔯n, and VR46 Academy graduate, won the Saturday sprint race and the Sunday grand prix to emerge ☂with a five-point lead over Jorge Martin.

Martin - who was punished with a long lap penalty on Saturday - finished ꧙second twice.

“He comes from an incredible moment, this weekend he immediately st♒arted strong, he went well from the first practice,” 🌄Rossi analysed Bagnaia to  after the sprint.

“Martin is there, but these weekends [Bagnaia] mana൩ges to have something more.

“He's very quiet, drives well and is incredibly fast. He has improved a lot on al♏l points and at the moment he doesn't have a weak point.

“He does the lap, he always starts well at the start and this is a very important thing, something that c🌃hampions like Verstappen for example do.

“It's not easy to always start well, every now and t𝐆hen someone gets it wrong and instead he's always there. And he’s incredibly fast."

Bagnaia 'aggressive not dirty'

Rossi insists that tw🦩o-time champion Bagnaia thrives in difficulty.

"Yes, lately under pressure he's giving his all, he manages to bring ou🐬t that♚ extra bit,” he said.

“In my opinion, Bagnaia's strength is this: he's aggress꧋ive but he's not dirty, he's clean but he's nꦕot sweet.

“He's the right mix of wickedness, the aggressiveness, riding the Ducati in oversteer when braking but also the mileage, he don't make mistakes. Now🗹 he’s hard to beat.”

Rossi warned factory Ducati rider Bagnaia that Pramac’s Marti🍨n could contest the championship until the final day, as he didꦅ last year.

"There is a lot of possibil🏅ity that they will reach the end,” Rossi said.

“It depends on the dynamics. Now we are in the Bagnaia dynamic which has recovered a lot of points from them in the last races, because𝔉 let's not forget👍 that he had maybe 40, but he was in the lead and now he's there.

“Now we have to see every weekend, because Martin is a very fast rider, he doesn't mak꧒e many mistakes, he has the fastest lap too. He starts well, these are the important things in MotoGP now and it will be a good fight until the end."

Is it better to chase or be chased?

"In my opinion, Pecco was in a good condition befor⛎e the break because he had passed him,” Rossi said.

“But Martin, even though he won't be in Ducati next year, will have to change teams🎀 and was disappointed because he wanted the red one.

“When he returned from holidays he was ther⛄e straight away and manag🌃ed to recover points from him.

“Now I see it as equal. Even from the outside, the two of them are the ones who aꦍre going a little better now, you can see it by eye🥂."
