“It’s definitely a pop at Marc, absolutely..."

Bagnaia, last weekend at Silverstone, voices his annoyance: “We have also to say that the situation in qualifying right now is quite ridiculous considering that ten MotoGP riders can go slow like this to follow other riders.”“Because he started it back in MotoGP when he was on the Honda.” “It happens, doesn’t it? I’m not anti-Marc, I am a massive fan. But he’s always looking for tows in qualifying, then if someone rolls off, he is annoyed!Bagnaia’s criticism of tow tactics was echoed by multiple other MotoGP riders including Aleix Espargaro and Fabio di Giannantonio.
“Even more so in the smaller classes. The Moto2 and 3 riders watch every MotoGP session. These guys are their heroes. It is really important that the MotoGP riders stop doing what they are doing.Simon Crafar, the ex-rider and current MotoGP broadcaster, will replace Freddie Spencer as leading Race Direction next year.“We all agree that it’s great Simon was picked. He’s so happy to be doing it,” Guintoli reacted.Guintoli insisted new rules must be brought in to combat towing.
