Enea Bastianini Juarai MotoGP Qatar 2022: Saya Rasa Kami Semua Menangis
07 Maret 2022, 13:01
Enea Bastianini performed exceptionally throughout the Qatar MotoGP race. Calm and deadly, that's the right word to describe the performance of the 2020 Moto2 champion.
Bastianini finished the race in 42 minutes 13.198 seconds, even scoring the fastest time of 1:54,337 seconds on lap 17, breaking Francesco Bagnaia's 2021 record with 1:54,491 seconds.
"I feel great at the moment. I tried hard from the start, but the most important thing was to save the tires for the end of the race," Bastianini said in his official statement.
"I saw Pol so fast up front, but I managed to overtake Binder and then at the end, once I was very close to Pol, realized that I could try to win the race."
"I passed him at Turn one and he went wide, so from then on it was all about staying in the lead and bringing home the win. It's hard to express how I feel right now but I want to dedicate the win to Fausto because he gave an incredible motivation from 'up there'," he continued.
