Valentino Rossi has publicly requested that Ducati provide him with the exact same level of support and technical backing as teammate Francesco Bagnaia.
The legendary rider emphasized that receiving equal machinery and engineering attention is crucial for him to be fully competitive in MotoGP.
Rossi noted that while Bagnaia is performing exceptionally well, a balanced garage dynamic would ultimately benefit the entire manufacturer’s championship campaign.
Technical integration and software updates are central to his request, as he aims to bridge the performance gap witnessed in recent races.
Ducati management now faces the delicate task of balancing the needs of a multiple world champion with those of their current top performer.
The statement highlights the intense inner-team rivalries in MotoGP, where minor differences in factory support can drastically alter race results.
