MotoGP Le Mans, Race: Andrea Dovizioso “I'm sorry for the team”
Andrea Dovizioso finishes a hard-fought race fourth.
This was a race to remember for Andrea Dovizioso, who for the first time since his arrival in Ducati was able to fight for almost the entire race for the positions that matter, at least until the track started to dry out and the tires gave way crash, relegating the driver from Forlì to an excellent fourth place. The word is up to him.
“It's always a great feeling to be first in front of the whole group! In the first part of the race I was very happy with the feeling with my bike and until the tires dropped significantly I was able to manage the situation well. Pedrosa had more than me, but I could still continue to make a good pace. We had good traction and this helped us a lot but then, when the track started to dry, the tires dropped really badly. Unfortunately I was no longer able to keep up in the last six/seven laps and therefore I lost the opportunity to get on the podium. I'm very sorry for the team, because I really wanted to give them this satisfaction, but otherwise we had a positive weekend in all aspects, even in the dry."

Even though I don't have any sympathy, I have to say that I was sad to see him lose third place.
...is there anyone you like besides Pasini and Testoner?
I could list several, but one above all, Crutchlow!
In fact there aren't many Italians, perhaps because they are pumped up badly by journalists, perhaps because I understand what they say!
Don't worry Dovi, you can see you're trying hard.
The hope is that the synergy will be created which then leads to a constructive agreement.
Honestly, reducing the discussion to the concept of nice/unlikeable is too restrictive, I think it would be better to think about skills or aptitudes.
Currently I believe it is the best that could be found to develop the project practically from scratch.
I was only saying the fact that I didn't like him to underline how much, in my opinion, for the work he is doing, he deserved it.
