Ducati team manager Davide Tardozzi is “surprised” by Uccio Salucci’s comments about Francesco Bagnaia’s Misano test, as the factory team continues to insist on a vague line about the Italian having ridden a VR46 GP24 that day.
The test preceded a return to form for Bagnaia, who dominated the subsequent round in Japan. But if Bagnaia did indeed borrow Franco Morbidelli’s GP24 at Misano, the factory squad still does not want this to be said out loud in such terms – despite what Salucci said earlier today.
