Il MotoGP, after its debut in Qatar, arrives in Europe where, next weekend, the Portuguese Grand Prix. Also on the circuit Portimão a fight between Pecco Bagnaia and Jorge Martín with Marc Márquez and Brad Binder who will try to get in to take the victory. Three Ducati and a KTM with the others, Aprilia first and foremost, chasing. The two-time world champion, together with the Borgo Panigale team, after the victory in Losail, wants to repeat it on Portuguese soil where, last year, he achieved a prestigious double between Sprint and Long race. Bagnaia, for the Sisal experts, is favorite on Sunday, at 2,25 while chasing on Saturday, winning at 3,00 behind Jorge Martín.
Precisely the Spanish driver of Pramac remains the number 1 rival for Nuvola Rossa not only for the present but also for the future: "I want the official Ducati, they know it in Borgo Panigale". Martinator's statements leave no doubt about his intentions for next year but, to sit alongside Bagnaia, the Iberian phenomenon is aware of having to win. Jorge wants to start from Portugal where he starts as the man to beat in the Sprint, triumph at 2,25, while, in the grid of favorites for Sunday, he starts behind his great rival Bagnaia, being offered at 3,50.
Between the two litigants he would like to take advantage of it, to achieve success, Marc Márquez who, already in Qatar, showed that he was at ease with the Ducati of the Gresini Team . Cabroncito, first under the checkered flag in the long race at 4,50, wants to become the first rider to win in all three classes of the World Championship having won in 125, in 2010, and in Moto2, in 2012. Not an easy task but absolutely in the heart of the eight-time world champion. Who will definitely try is Brad Binder, riding the KTM, twice second at Losail and eager to climb to the top step of the podium. The South African, who won at 7,50, will want to play all his cards, in Portimão as for the title, until the end.
The rest of the competition starts behind but watch out Peter Acosta. The rookie of wonders, with the Gas Gas, he already showed amazing things on his debut and he, who has already won on these hairpin bends in Moto3 and Moto2, dreams of a victory already in the second race in MotoGP: a feat that would pay the stakes 50 times.
Sisal always reminds that the game is forbidden to minors and that you must always play with awareness and moderation.
