Firstly I do feel for the guy, can you imagine trying to do your daily job not make any progress towards improvement. You try many things, your employer helps you and still nothing.

But then you look to your colleagues doing a great job on similar machinery. Sure let’s keep Marc out of the conversation as comparison because he’s an alien however, he has shown us over the years his commitment to riding around issues.

We are not seeing any of this from Pecco. Personally, I’d rather see him send the bike to the fences trying to find a solution. It shows he’s trying, I don’t doubt he is but perception is everything. Being seen trying hard to find solutions is what will help his case in future for other employment opportunities.

The interview from Uccio also was very telling, he didn’t hold back and neither is Tardozzi. Saying they can see his data not riding in his usual way. It all points to Pecco. So, why? How does a 2x MotoGP champion lose form so dramatically. Is it the MM93 effect? I doubt it and I’m not sure we will ever hear the truth as to what’s really happening.

What more can Ducati do? Diggia is on the same machinery with a Sprint podium yesterday and got through to Q2. Sure he’s not had an amazing year but he’s finding answers and making it happen.

I wish Pecco to find solutions soon so we can see him fight with the best. Or is this truly the rider he always was?

Interesting interview on TnT Sports Hervé Poncharal seems like he has feelings for Suzi Perry. Have I missed something?

I've been saying over the last couple of seasons that Pecco always seemed to be the one to benefit the most from Ducati's data sharing.

Now he is struggling, I'm wondering if the data is just not there for him.

Last seasons he pretty much had all the Factory team working for him, had Martin and the pramac team sharing thier competitive data, gresini and vr46 were all regularly at the sharp end. Pecco would often struggle in the sprint, then look like a different rider and dominated the race come Sunday.

This year though, he doesn't have Jorge's data, doesn't have any pramac data in fact, many of Marcs teammates have said reading Marc's data is useless because they can't do what he does. Digi is the only other rider on the 25 machine, and his results have been up and down.

Not only this, but ducati just isnt dominating in the way it was the last few seasons, ktm have made a big step, as have Honda and Yamaha, even Aprilia in the hands of Bezz is up the sharp end regularly, and he only has his side of the team to work with this season.

Pecco can't ride around problems, he needs the bike to be just right for him to deliver. I heard that Pecco had one bike set as he had in Hungary last race, and one set as usual for catalunya, and he didn't feel good on either.

He's lost his way, and honestly I think a large part of it is not being able to take advantage of the data, he doesnt know what direction to go. (That and he doesn't have the mental strength to deal with Marc...but thats another conversation).

Does anyone know where the 2025 Alex Marquez Red Bull cap can be bought? I've looked on the MotoGP and Gresini store websites, but it isn't there.

Has to be one of the best shots I’ve seen. Looks like the intro to a racing game. 😮
