Ducati boss Gigi Dall’Igna makes crucial promise for Francesco Bagnaia and Jorge Martin’s title battle

Ducati are guaranteed to crown the 2023 MotoGP champion - their second in a row, after 15𓆏 winless years - with only championship leader Bagnaia, Martin and Marco Bezzecch൲i mathematically capable of finishing on top.
Team orders from Ducat🐬i, as their factory rider battles with Pramac and VR46, will therefore come under scrutiny.
“All of the others will enjoy the final races of t﷽he season,” 🍸Ducati general manager Dall’Igna said. “I’m not sure I will be really happy!
“It’s brothers fighting.
“They have to have all the p𒊎ossible chances to win. We will൲ give all of our riders the best possible information to do their best.
“We will try to give the best p🎃ossible bike for fighting.
“This is our job, this is what we have to ꧅do in the last three races.”

Bagnaia has a 13-point advantage at the top, despite Martin winning the spr✤int and the grand prix in Thailand this weekend.
Three r🅺ounds remain, beginning in Malaysia in a fortnight.
“Last year was a f꧙antastic year for us, but🥀 this year is probably better,” an ecstatic Dall’Igna said.
“We are really happy. Really happy for all the people who work for Ducati Corse becauseꦰ they have a reward for t🌜heir job.
“I hope this will be a battle, a true batt﷽le, until 🦩the end.
“We saw this year already, [Sunday’s] race w♈as unbelievable. They did a 🎶lot of overtaking.”
