Ducati team boss Davide Tardozzi has admitted that its defeat to Aprilia in the Thailand Grand Prix felt like a “slap in the face”, but insists the true competitive order in MotoGP will only become apparent over the coming rounds.
Ducati endured one of its most challenging weekends in recent memory at Buriram, with VR46’s Fabio di Giannantonio ending up as its top finisher in sixth. The result marked the end of an 88-race podium streak stretching back to the 2021 British Grand Prix.
