Prima Pramac made history in MotoGP this year, becoming the first satellite team to win the team championship. They were also in the fight for the rider’s title until the last round, but their rider Jorge Martín eventually lost to Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati).
Team manager Gino Borsoi defended to GPOne.com that everything was in place for the Spanish rider to be champion and admitted his share of the blame: ‘I’m not presumptuous, but I believe that all the ingredients were there to win the title this year, and I think and rethink about all the moments in all the races where I made mistakes. Probably, if we didn’t bring it home, part of the fault is also mine’.
With the missed rider’s title, the Italian considers the season wasn’t perfect: ‘With those two details that might have changed the course of the season, you question whether you could have done better, where you went wrong, if we didn’t win because of me, or because of some mistakes, or because it had to be this way. I don’t think there’s such a thing as bad luck, but if we didn’t win, it means that we couldn’t do everything as well as possible. But even without being perfect, this is a season to remember’.
