Rome, 17 October (LaPresse) – "I'm definitely starting further up the grid than in the last race. Otherwise, it was a difficult day to understand because we had several complications with one of the two bikes in both sessions, and I wasn't able to continue the good work I had done by completing laps with the tyres. However, in the end, we managed to get into Q2, despite a less than perfect lap.‘ This is what Francesco Bagnaia told Sky Sport after finishing ninth in the pre-qualifying for the Australian Grand Prix. ’The goal was to get into Q2, and it's good that we managed to do that. Tomorrow morning, it will be essential to understand which tyres to use for the Sprint Race, and then we'll see."
