Enea Bastianini’s salary and Ducati contract contains a clause which may be incentive to beat teammate Francesco Bagnaia

The 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:2023 MotoGP rider line-up will feature the two young, excitin༺g Italians as teammates in Ducati’s factory teღam after Bastianini earned the step-up from Gresini to join the 2022 world champion.
Their personal relationship - and Ducati’s team orders - is a key talking point ahead of the new season because Bastianini has already shown willﷺingness to go wheel-to-wheel with Bagnaia.
Carlo Pernat, Bastianini’s manager, explained the terms of his deal with Ducati: "The contract expires at the end of 2024. If he makes first, second or third, hi꧃s salary triples.”
Pernat revealed Bastianini’s other income: “But it's not just Ducati, we have Alpinestars, KYT with decent fig❀ures. And other sponsors that are equivalent to other bonuses.
“Between first and second there is a big differꦉence."
The final incentive for riders to🌌 finish even slightly higher may ultimately trump team orders when the season gets underway, particularly for someone like Bastianini who is hungry for his maiden championship and is riding a bike which is the envy of many of his rivals.
Reigning champion Bagnaia may discover that the biggest obstacle to retaining his titl💃e is actually on the other side of the same garage.
"That rivalry was built by Duc🌳ati uncons🔥ciously,” Pernat said.
“A🍌t a certain moment there was ta﷽lk of teamwork, but at that moment a dualism was created.
“Eneaꦆ was playing for the world championship, or at least [within] the first three positions. In the financial field it is worth a lot of money.
“Many times I asked Ducati toജ guarantee us at least third place, but there was always a postponement.🅺"

Bastianini was snapping at Bagnaia’s heels at Misano, even wh🌌en his future as 50 percent 🌠of the factory Ducati line-up was guaranteed.
"Enea is a tough guy, he is not there and will not be there at team games,” Pernat🌱 s♐aid.
“They are two completely different riders: Bagnaia is fast and consistent, Bastianini is more like 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Casey Stoner, a tightrope walker, overtaking clean but at times when it is m⭕ore difficult to pass. It will b♛e a good battle, but it's normal."
Pernat said about the changing life of a MotoGP manager: "Managing a rider is like man♊aging a company, several riders came to me, including Dennis Foggia, many parents of 12-13 year olds.
“The life of a manager is🙈 very hard, I am 75 years old! Our generation was on the handshake, on friendly contracts. Today you make a contract with your lawyers, but they can ch♛ange at any moment."
