“Everything under our control was done”
Pressed on what he had understood, Bagnaia remain♌ed v♌ague but hinted at factors beyond his control:
"Honestly, we had good results co🍰nsidering the situation. Everything that was under our control was done, and the rest was not working well.
"But in any case, we improved during the🥃 race weekend and finished on the podium. That wasn’t my objective, buꩲt considering the situation, wasn’t that bad.
"And let's see this race weekend.
“It's a tr🍬ack where I need to work more. Tomorrow we'll try to adapt to the situation, because I did two laps walking an𝔉d the [track] condition is not the best, absolutely.
“But we try to improve. We try to learn from what I did ꦆwrong in Thailand and try to be competitive from the first session.”
Speaking separately to Spanish broadcaster DAZN, Bagnaia reiterat🐻ed that something outside his and the team's control wasn't working well in Thailand.
But the Italian🤪 refused to confirm or deny if he meant tyres.
Bagnaia without a podium in Argentina
While Marc Ma🔜rquez boasts an impressive record at Termas de Río Hondo, includin🔜g three victories, Bagnaia is yet to claim a podium finish.
"Every time, I’ve made mistakes - either in qualifying or the race. But I enjoy riding here. I like the layout, I t🍎hink it suits my style and there’s always a first time!"
When asked whether the weeken♏d would again be a battle between him and the Marquez brothers, Bagnaia remaꦉined cautious:
"Let’s see. I’m sure they’ll be competitive, as will the other Ducatis, Aprilias, and KTMs. It won’t be an easy w🌞eekend for anyone.
"Like Marc said, the track will improve session by session, with peak per🐼formance coming during 🃏Sunday’s race. We just need to be ready, adapt, and stay competitive."
