JAKARTA - Ducati Lenovo racer Francesco Bagnaia is in a condition of not 100 percent fit against the Italian MotoGP, this weekend. The Italian racer still has difficulty riding a motorcycle.
Bagnaia even admitted that it was difficult for her to walk after her ankle broke due to an accident in the French MotoGP, some time ago.
However, that did not dampen Bagnaia's enthusiasm to win at home. Valentino Rossi's student did not want to just give up.
"My condition is not 100 percent (good), I'm struggling more to walk than driving or racing, and it shouldn't affect my race weekend. Because, as an Italian, it's a very special weekend," he said, quoted from AFP via Antara, Friday.
The ankle of the rider who is familiarly called Pecco broke when he collided with Maverick Vinales (Aprilia Racing) at the Le Mans Circuit, France. He is also now targeting victory for him and Ducati to maintain the top position, considering that he is only one point ahead of Marco Bezzecchi (Mooney VR46).

"It will be an important weekend for us, and of course, great support from the public we will give us extra motivation to do well at our home Grand Prix," he added.
In addition, Pecco also welcomed his teammate, Enea Bastianini, who was also declared to be racing at Mugello this weekend. Bastianini previously missed several laps after suffering a shoulder injury he received at the opening of the MotoGP season in Portugal.
"After all, I'm motivated. It's our home race, so I hope I can do it well," said the rider nicknamed "The Beast".
On the other hand, Bezzecchi also said he was ready to face tough rivals in Italy and wanted to fight for another title, after his victory in France.
Meanwhile, the sixth round of MotoGP will take place at the Mugello Circuit, Italy, on June 9-11.
