Jorge Martin believes the MotoGP title fight is more about himself and series leader Francesco Bagnaia, rather than Marco Bezzecchi despite the Italian having won the same number of races.
Both Martin and Bezzecchi have three wins apiece while MotoGP champion Bagnaia is well clear on eight.
The factory Ducati rider also holds a commanding lead over Martin in the standings, but that hasn’t stopped the Spaniard from believing he can close the gap.Martin hasn’t beaten Bagnaia that often in 2023, but when he has it’s resulted in big results as was the case at Sachsenring when he completed his first MotoGP double.
"Pecco is in a really good position at the moment," continued Martin."He’s in a moment where he can afford to finish second, finish third and he can decide whether to take risks or not."I need to risk a little bit more to recover those points. I feel like I can arrive and that I will arrive. But also Brad [Binder]. I feel like he can close the gap."Me and Pecco are a bit more consistent in all the tracks. I feel like it’s more about Pecco and me.
