“Such a deserved champion!”: MotoGP fans explode Twitter as Francesco Bagnaia gets Ducati their first Championship since 2007
Pecco Bagnaia
After a tense season filled with moments of many ups and downs, the results are finally in for this year’s MotoGP World Championship, and the scale has weighed in favor of Ducati. After a drought of 15 whopping years since Casey Stoner got the crown on behalf of the Japanese manufacturers, Francesco Bagnaia has made his Italian team proud by putting up a brilliant fight against the defending Champion Fabio Quartararo to get his maiden title.
Going into the Valencia Grand Prix, Francesco Bagnaia already had an advantage of 23 points over French prodigy Fabio Quartararo. While Quartararo had led the Championship Standings during the initial months up until the paddocks arrived at TT Assen, the Yamaha racer needed to win the Valencia GP to keep his hope of defending his MotoGP title up. Unfortunately for the Frenchman, he could not achieve the top spot as he finished P4 today–and this made it clear that Pecco is the World Championship claimant for this year.
Francesco Bagnaia was not the Championship favorite at the beginning of this season in MotoGP, but he truly turned the tables on his rivals, and achieved the World title in his Italian racing bike. This news has brought up the hopes of a massive number of Ducati fans who had forgotten the joy of winning the golden trophy since Casey Stoner got it in 2007. Thus, they took to Twitter to express their utter happiness at Francesco Bagnaia’s World Championship victory.

Alex Rins became the winner of the title-deciding race in Valencia as Fabio Quartararo could not get to the top from his P4 position in the starting grid. Francesco Bagnaia, on the other hand, only needed to finish 14th or above to guarantee his victory this season. Once the race got over, fans poured in their reactions on social media to celebrate their “Pecco’s” win. Here is what they had to say–
What a great #MotoGP season it's been. I kinda wanted Fabio to pull off a miracle but it's also cool to see Ducati win their first title since 2007. Already excited for Tuesday and seeing the new riders on their new bikes! #ForzaDucati
