Enea Bastianini has definitely been the pick of the lot when it comes to the number of Ducati riders on the track. We all expected Fabio Quartararo to build on the kind of championship winning season that he had and become the runaway champion this year around too. But the quality that Enea Bastianini has shown on the Ducati has not let the Yamaha rider get away. Recently, Bastianini won his third race of the season at Le Mans.

The Italian rider has been able to do this on an unofficial Ducati which makes this feat more impressive. To put the results in context, it’ll be fair to say that it has been a combination of some breathtaking rides by Enea Bastianini and the lack of power on the Yamaha which takes away the edge from Fabio Quartararo. We all know the competitive edge that the Ducati has over Yamaha in a straight line and that’s something that needs to addressed.

Just like any other team, Ducati will also want to keep that advantage that they have over the rest of the pack. But the message from Enea’s camp has been a little different. We know that it’s implied from Fabio’s camp that either Yamaha does something about the lack of the competitive edge of the Yamaha or the reigning world champion might look for another manufacturer at the end of the seaon.

But, on the other hand, Enea Bastianini doesn’t want to interfere with his competitive package as he is satisfied. His agent, Carlo Pernat confirmed his feelings. He said, “We tested a fairing in Jerez and we are waiting for the second version, which will come in august at Silverstone. We could only approve one so we preferred to wait.“

“The only thing we don’t have is the device to lower the front of the bike, otherwise it would be the same as the bike of the official team.”

“For now Bastianini has decided not to use this fairing. He is waiting for the test that follows in Barcelona to test it again,” as reported by motorcyclesports.

Enea Bastianini is taking it slow so that he can assess on all the options before he can make his mind up on the upgrades that he would like to bring in for its Desmosedici.
