Pecco Bagnaia volvió a vivir otra pesadilla en el Sprint del Gran Premio de Australia de MotoGP, en Phillip Island. El turinés ya se clasificó 11º en la Q2. Luego, fue penalizado con tres posiciones en parrilla, a cumplir el domingo, por estorbar a su amigo Bezzecchi. En la cita corta, bajó posiciones y acabó penúltimo, sólo por delante de su compañero, el probador de Ducati, Michele Pirro.
Pese a la reiteración de decepciones, el de Chivasso estaba asombrado. “Muy difícil, fue muy difícil. Estamos intentando entenderlo. Por los datos, se ve muy claro que la moto se movía mucho, pero no sabemos el porqué. No lo entiendo. No sé cuántas veces hemos buscado este año la solución. Hemos entendido que no es algo relacionado con la configuración o la electrónica. Es otra cosa y estamos buscando saber qué es”, dijo. Es el gran premio número 19 de la temporada.
Desconcertante
Lo más desconcertante con él es que había momentos en que su montura iba bien, hasta posicionando arriba en entrenamientos. El viernes dijo que una moto iba y otra, no. “Estaba empezando a sentirme algo mejor, pero en la Q2 y el inicio del Sprint ya sentí algo extraño. No lograba pilotar la moto, otra vez era pasajero de ella. Muchas veces debía cerrar el gas a la salida de curva. Extraño“, se cuestionaba.
Bagnaia, en Australia.
Ducati y Marc Márquez
Al ser preguntado sobre si la Ducati sigue siendo la mejor moto, el tricampeón dio su opinión. “Pienso que si Marc Márquez hubiera estado aquí, habría estado en el podio, con lo que quizá lo es (la mejor moto). Nuestra moto va fuerte cuando todo va bien, pero por algún motivo las dos mías no funcionan con normalidad”, proclamó.
Japón y su sufrimiento
Pecco ha pasado de arrasar en Motegi, con doblete de triunfos, a ni puntuar en Phillip Island en el Sprint. “Sinceramente, acabar la temporada así es duro. La moto es la misma que en Japón o en Indonesia, pero sólo funcionó normal en Motegi. ¿Por qué? El equipo está intentando entenderlo. Hay alguna cosa que se nos escapa“, lanzó.

Pete Alonso signing with Orioles: Mets slugger bolts for Baltimore on five-year, $155 million contract
The Baltimore Orioles have agreed to terms with the top power hitter remaining on the free agent market. The O's and first baseman Pete Alonso have agreed to a five-year contract worth $155 million, CBS Sports has confirmed. The deal does not include any opt outs, per the New York Post. The team has not yet announced the signing. The signing comes one day after it was reported the Orioles offered Kyle Schwarber the same five-year, $150 million contract he took to return to the Philadelphia Phillies. Essentially, the O's added $1 million per year to that contract, pivoted to Alonso, and got it done. The $31 million is the second-highest average annual value ever given to a first baseman. Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Blue Jays: $35.7 millionPete Alonso, Orioles: $31 millionMiguel Cabrera, Tigers: $31 millionFreddie Freeman, Dodgers: $27 millionPaul Goldschmidt, Cardinals: […]
Back Bills to Win Super Bowl … Because What Could Go Wrong?
What if I told you back in August that Patrick Mahomes, Joe Burrow and Lamar Jackson would all be watching the NFL playoffs from home?Only four weeks remain in the regular season and, honestly, the situation laid out above isn’t too farfetched if you really think about it. Burrow’s Bengals are dead and buried while Mahomes’ Chiefs and Jackson’s Ravens are literally underdogs to make the postseason. The Chiefs are as high as -800 to miss in the market. If you knew then what you know now … what would’ve been the play?"Oh, I would’ve emptied the clip on Buffalo," one professional bettor told me from Las Vegas. "The only team that’s stopped Josh Allen is Kansas City. That’s the only one that matters. Mahomes is their kryptonite."And yet a path without all three is obviously easier.This page may contain […]
What’s Next: Pete Alonso Gives Baltimore a Boost and the Mets Need to Act Fast
ORLANDO, Fla. – In the latest shake-up to the Mets’ core, the club’s all-time home run leader is bound for Baltimore. Just one day after losing longtime closer Edwin Díaz to the Dodgers in free agency, and weeks after trading Brandon Nimmo to the Rangers, Pete Alonso is the latest franchise icon to depart from Queens this winter after agreeing to a five-year, $155 million deal with the Orioles that will give him the highest average annual value ever for a first baseman in free agency. A year ago, Alonso was unable to secure the long-term deal he coveted coming off a down year by his standards. He settled for a two-year, $54 million contract that included an opt-out, which he exercised this winter after raising all of his slash-line numbers in 2025, hitting 44% above league average and passing Daryl Strawberry […]
