Bagnaia, Marquez, Martin’s private chat revealed: “Miller? He’s crazy!”

Martin: It was great. It was a long race.

Marquez: You guys were well ahead at the end.

Bagnaia: I pushed like crazy.

Marquez: What time did you get again? 1’38?

Bagnaia: On the last lap 1’38’.91.

Martin: I got 1’38.89 then I saw 1’39.04 and I thought ‘that’s ok’. Then I heard you and thought ‘it’s over’.

Bagnaia: I put a hard tyre on the front.

Martin: I did too and it was an error.

Marquez: The hard tyre tightened the bike up a bit.

Martin: With the wind it was tough.

Bagnaia: The front wheel kept lifting up on every lap.

Bagnaia: I’d said I was going to overtake both you and Miller. He’s crazy!
