Valencia MotoGP - Bagnaia and Quartararo face-to-face as it happened
Fabio Quartararo and Francesco Bagnaia met the media ahead of their MotoGP title showdown on Sunday in Valencia.
After overturning a 91point deficit to Quartararo, Bagnaia now leads the MotoGP standings by 23 points.
A very comfortable lead with just one race to go, Bagnaia can afford to finish anywhere inside the top 14 if Quartararo wins the race, something the Yamaha rider must achieve just to have a chance of winning the title.
Quartararo will either win his second title in succession or Bagnaia will become the fourth different premier class champion in four years after Joan Mir won in 2020 and Marc Marquez in 2019.
