Join Ducati And Babak Dampingi Bagnaia, This Is The Main Target Of Bastianini Next Season

JAKARTA - Italian racer Etherea Bastian was officially chosen to join the Ducati Lenovo team in MotoGP 2023. Before taking to the track, Bastianini had prepared a big target for her performance, namely by improving her consistency.

Quoted from Speedweek, Thursday, the target was set by Bastianini because she was aware that she would be in the same team and accompanied Francesco Bagnaia for the 2023 MotoGP season. Even though it has officially become a part of Ducati, Bastianini admits that it is not easy to get that position.

The reason is, the 24-year-old racer previously had to compete with Prima Paramac racer Jorge Martin, who also performed quite well this season.

Bastianini also realized her performance was less consistent this season. She was thrown from the top 10 several times, despite winning three wins.

Ducati certainly doesn't make easy decisions. Because Jorge (Martin) is clearly a fast rider. I realized that in 2022 so far it has not appeared consistent," Bastianini was quoted as saying by SpeedWeek.

Based on this note, Bastian has set a target to improve his performance and consistency in order to compete for the title with Ducati next season.

"Now I have to improve myself in the next race. In the future, I want to be more consistent, so that I can be the challenger for the real world title," he said.
