Some may have arrived later than planned after the visa turmoil, but most of the MotoGP paddock has now had its first look at the Buddh International Circuit, venue for this weekend’s inaugural Indian MotoGP.
With team-mate Enea Bastianini still injured, Ducati test rider Michele Pirro will join Bagnaia for India and next weekend's Japanese round.
"I am happy to participate in two more MotoGP events, although I feel sorry for Enea. His season is really turning out to be complicated, and I hope he can come back soon," said Pirro."[India] will be a surprise for everyone, and only on Friday will find out the characteristics of this track. In any case, I am calm: I will do my best, and as always, it will be an honour to share the garage with the World Champion.
Also pictured walking the 4.96km circuit were the likes of Pramac Ducati's Johann Zarco and Moto3 front runner Deniz Oncu.Michelin will offer a wider choice of tyres for this weekend, as MotoGP faces its first new event without any prior testing in over a decade.Related Articles
