Pecco Bagnaia reveals the most valuable lesson he learned in 2025 through MotoGP Crusis: “It taught me the importance of trying to work better in difficult situations”
Pecco Bagnaia He finally saw the end of his nightmare. After 2025 is a year to forget MotoGP riding you ducatiThe Turin native packed his bags and headed to the Maldives to relax with his partner. He had to step away from motorcycles because when he was one of the frontrunners for the title and expectations were so high, reality hit very hard.
Although he was only able to win two races throughout the year, Marc Marquez He won the Grand Prix by five points and became the champion. The Italian finished fifth overall, 257 points behind his boxing partner.. This is something a double MotoGP champion cannot do, which is why he is putting his life on the line heading into 2026. But according to Bagnaia himself, he is already “resetting” for a new campaign.
“It was very difficult. There were some good races and I’ll try to understand why, and there were other bad races. That will be a lesson in identifying the problems. If you look at Ducati, it was a great season where Marc dominated and made the difference. I want to start again.The game in Valencia was a good start and I’m looking forward to Malaysia as well.“He said this in a statement reported by Motorsport.com at a press conference at Campioni in Festa, Ducati’s big festival that ends the year in Italy.
“With experience, I realized that every situation is helpful. Even if things don’t work out, it’s important to keep your feet on the ground, reflect, and try to improve. 2025 This experience taught me the importance of successfully dealing with difficulties and trying to identify the main problems.” he said, looking back on what he learned from a frustrating year.
unknown future
Bagnaia is no exception; like almost the entire grid, his contract ends in 2026. For this reason, after a very difficult year with Ducati, many are doubting his continuity in the Alpine structure. Pecco did not want to go into details, but assured that everything feels the same as it did at the beginning of the previous preseason.
“Ask questions to those who can answer them. I don’t feel like anything has changed.”. This is how openly he answered whether he understood Ducati’s desire to update him. Over the next few months, we’re going to have a “silly season” that will squeeze a lot of juice out of us.

One of the two new teams on the Formula 1 grid is preparing to introduce its car for the 2026 season. The Audi team will officially reveal the new car at a special event in Berlin on Tuesday, January 20.
Audi has fully taken over Sauber’s project ahead of the 2026 season and will start its first Formula 1 championship as a factory team and power unit manufacturer. The team has also retained a significant portion of its 2025 Sauber structure, including team boss Jonathan Whitley and drivers Gabriel Bortoleto and Nico Hulkenberg.
This will make Audi the fourth team to submit designs for its 2026 car, after Red Bull, Racing Bulls and Haas. The presentation will take place in the German capital in the format of a full-fledged seasonal launch.
Following the main event, a separate event will be held in Berlin on Wednesday, January 21 for selected fans and media to take a closer look at the new car and its livery.
The presentation will start on January 20 at 20:00 Kyiv time. During the event, the team will reveal the car’s full design for the 2026 season.
Let’s remember that Audi had previously put the 2026 car on the track during promotional races at the Barcelona-Catalonia circuit in early January, but only a limited number of images were released at that time.

Formula 1 driver Nico Hulkenberg can count on a multimillion-dollar bonus in his first season with Audi if he can repeat the results in the 2025 season.
Last season, the German pilot reached the Formula 1 podium after 250 races for the first time in his career and finished the British Grand Prix in third place. At Silverstone, Hulkenberg was ahead of seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton and scored 15 points in one go.
Hulkenberg scored 51 points at the end of the 2025 season.
On the eve of Audi’s first season, specialized media reported that the 38-year-old pilot signed a contract providing a bonus of 50 thousand euros for each point earned in the 2026 season.
Given the large-scale changes in Formula 1, even the pilots themselves cannot yet predict the balance of power in the peloton. However, if Hulkenberg scores 51 points again, the bonus can reach 2 million 550 thousand euros in addition to his base salary at Audi.
If Nico manages to win the race and score the maximum 25 points, this will immediately earn him a bonus of 1,250,000 euros.
The team will present the appearance of its first car today at 20:00 Kyiv time.

Thomas Berman, the younger brother of Haas Formula 1 team driver Oliver Berman, will officially take part in Italian Formula 4 and Euro 4 in the 2026 season.
Thomas will represent the VAR team colours.
The 16-year-old Briton spent last year in British Formula 4, where he scored one win and finished eighth in the final season standings.
But the ones that are considered the most prestigious and promising are the Italian and European Formula 4 championships. They are often chosen by young pilots for further career advancement. In addition, Thomas’ older brother Oliver Berman also competed in these series and became the Italian Formula 4 champion in 2021 with 11 wins.
Let us also remind you that Ukrainian Alexander Bondarev will compete in the same championships with the Prima Racing team in the 2026 season. The Ukrainian pilot does not hide his ambitions and has repeatedly expressed his intention to fight for the championship title.
Bondarev now participates in Middle East Formula 4 in preparation for the European leg of the season. After the first stage, he took first place in the general rankings and became the leader in the rankings.
Thomas Berman will compete in the Formula Winter Series as part of his preparations.
The competition between the current “four” promises to be extremely high, and the appearance of the younger brother of the Formula 1 pilot will only increase interest in the series.
