Davide Tardozzi is right to point out that the last Malaysian Grand Prix once again established Ducati's supremacy in MotoGP. With a triple victory and records broken everywhere, the Italian brand has moved closer to a new double constructor's title and driver's title. However, this consecration has every chance of being celebrated with a Pramac team leaving for Yamaha and a Jorge Martin who would bring his crown to Aprilia as soon as the lights go out…
Ducati is one step away from ceding the MotoGP throne to its satellite team Pramacas the season reaches its peak. During the
Malaysian Grand Prixthe Borgo Panigale brand once again proved its dominance with a resounding victory for Pecco Bagnaia, followed by Jorge Martin and Enea Bastianini. This race marked the 105th victory for Ducati in the premier category, bringing 18 the number of victories this season, a new record, and 16
the number of consecutive victories. Impressive figures that competitors will find difficult to ignore, even with upcoming regulatory changes.
Despite this new triumphant march, the celebration of the MotoGP riders' title will have to wait until the final round in Barcelona, following the cancellation of the race in Valencia due to the tragic events in the region. Montmelò is preparing to become the scene of the final chapter of this thrilling season, where Bagnaia et Martin
competed in a ballet of overtaking during the
Malaysian Grand Prixoffering a quality show to spectators.

Jorge Martin could become the world champion by winning the next Sprint. Martin has already won seven Sprints and three Grand Prixwhile
Bagnaia took the upper hand in six Sprints and ten Grands Prix. However, the weak point of
Bagnaia remains the short races, where he suffered
