Pecco Bagnaia Statements Day 1 GP Argentina MotoGP 2023

“All in all it was a positive day and I am satisfied with our work. Compared to Portimão, where we had two days of testing before the race weekend, here we didn't start in the best of conditions. The time available to set up the bike isn't much, but we still managed to do a good job. With used tires my pace is competitive and we are not far from the leaders. Tomorrow morning it will be very important to be able to run again with used tires to try to take a further step and in qualifying it will be fundamental to be able to secure a position in the first two rows of the starting grid.”
