🗣️'After all those mistakes it’s normal to receive some criticism, so I accept that' MotoGP world champion Francesco Bagnaia is philosophical about the mistakes he made on and off-track in 2022, but says 'without mistakes you can’t grow' ⬇️
When asked by Autosport following his title win in Valencia if he felt the criticisms he faced in 2022 were fair, Bagnaia responded: “I think everyone can have his point of view and everyone can say what they think.
“I can also say they were saying the truth, because when you start the season with the pressure of winning you have to demonstrate that you have this possibility to be world champion and I was losing a lot of races because I was crashing and making a lot of mistakes. “But already in Portimao I did a big mistake in Q1, I almost broke my collarbone and it was a difficult race.“Then in Jerez we did an incredible race, it was the key to be competitive again and then in Le Mans I crashed again in a stupid way."
“I didn’t need to approach the race in that way, because I was sure in the second half of the race the hard tyre would have been better.“I accept also when I had my mistakes during the summer in Ibiza, I accepted everything.“I try to improve myself every time and mistakes can happen, unfortunately. But without mistakes you can’t grow.
