JAKARTA Pramac Racing racer, Jorge Martin, is starting to lose hope of winning the 2023 MotoGP. The reason is that he feels he has been rigged.

He issued the series after finishing 10th in the Qatar MotoGP race at the Losail International Circuit, Monday, November 20, 2023 in the morning WIB.

The failure to climb the podium was caused by the poor performance of Michelin's rear tire. After the race Jorge took an oath of gratitude and suspected that certain parties were trying to harm him.

"It feels like they stole the title from me. Before this week's race, I was sure I could become world champion, but now that task is getting very difficult," he said in Speedweek.

The 24-year-old racer actually opened the race in Qatar well. He won the sprint race to cut the distance from points with his competitor, Francesco Bagnaia, at the top of the drivers' standings to only seven points.

After winning the sprint, Jorge Martin went all out on the race. However, the back tire that was too hard made him have to fail the podium.

Jorge said the fraud this season has really damaged his extraordinary season. His hard work so far this year has been in vain.

"It's a shame the championship was decided in this way after an amazing season where I've worked so hard," he said.

"You can see for yourself when my rear tire rotates wildly. It feels very hard like a rock. From outside the track it may look like I forgot how to drive overnight," he added.

Failed to get on the podium in the Qatar MotoGP race made Jorge Martin now 21 points adrift of the leader of the standings, Bagnaia. However, he still has hope of winning.

With one race remaining in the Valencia series, both drivers will certainly run out. Both will be seen in the 25-point race and 12-point race scenario.

If Bagnaia wins the sprint race and Jorge Martin doesn't finish on the second podium sprint race then Pecco, Bagnaia's nickname, will certainly defend the title before the race.
