MotoGP championship leader Jorge Martin 𒈔feels💞 he is “more mature on the bike the last few races” as he is “not crashing that much” now.

Martin made several critical errors in grands prix 🅺in the first half of the campaign, crashing out of the lead of the Spanish and German Grands Prix as chief rival Francesco Bagnaia won.

But since the summer break, Martin has finished every race while Bagnaia was involved in a collision at Aragon and fell while run💧ning third last weekend at Misano.

After the Emilia Romagna GP, Martin leads the championshi🌸p by 24 points over Bagnaia having finished second in all but one Sunday race since the British GP.

“Well, the good thing is now it 𓆉seems I’m more mature on the b🃏ike the last few races,” he said.  

“It seems like at the beginning of th🃏e season that I had 𓃲some problems that I didn’t recognise, and I was crashing, like at the Sachsenring or Jerez.

“Now, I th🉐ink we’ve found the solution, for sure last weekend [in the San Marino GP] I did the wrong choice [by pitting for my wet bike] and I lost points.

“But I’m not crashin𓄧g this much, so I’m happy I f♏ound a good base set-up.

“I know my bike really well and I feel like𝓰 I can control the limit. So, I hope next time I can be focused in Indonesia and the next few races to keep this g🌳ap or even increase it.”

Martin 𓃲noted after the summer break that his crashes in the first half of the season were down to him running something different compared to the other Ducati riders, which was affecting braking.

The Pramac rider lost the Emiliaꦕ Romagna GP in controversial circumstances after Enea Bastianini pushed him off track in a last lap overtake.

But evaluatꦉing his situation as a whಞole after that incident, Martin said: “I think I did a great weekend.

“For sure, I wanted to win but it’s ok. I’m ha🐼ppy with my performance, I’m happy with my qualifying.

“The target is the end of the season. I will keep working, keep learning ♒and I am happy. If I look just at the final results, today it couldౠ be better. But let’s move forward.”
