At just 26 years of age, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia not only has two MotoGP titles to his name already but rides for a manufacturer, Ducati, that has won the last two World Superbike championships, with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alvaro Bautista.

“I think about it every now and then,” GPone.com quotes Bagnaia as saying. “I like looking at the nuꦦmbers and statistics at the end of a season, Wikipedia is a pa🍌ge I consult a lot!

“I’d like to win in Superbike too, but the🀅re is time.”
