A fresh-faced ‘ Pecco ’ Bagnaia ’ s debut season in Moto3™ in 2013 was an inauspicious one , the Italian failing to score a point while riding for the Team Italia squad . A move into the Sky VR46 fold the following year using KTM machinery saw a rapid upturn in results , but it was a switch to Mahindra ’ s Moto3™ racer in 2015 that really showed off his talent . While he scored his first Grand Prix podium in 2015 , and in 2016 season Bagnaia was inspired , scoring Mahindra ’ s first Grand Prix victory at Assen , before adding another at Sepang . A call up to Sky VR46 ’ s new Moto2™ team , followed in 2018 when he scored the ‘ Rookie of the Year ’ title . A second season with the squad saw him claim eight wins and his first World Title . Bagnaia made his MotoGP™ debut with Pramac Ducati in 2019 , but it was only in 2020 that he came alive , scoring a debut podium at the Misano GP . Now lining up for Ducati ’ s factory team , he must improve his approach in cold conditions to become a consistent podium contender . That has shown early on , as he backed up a brilliant pole position in the Qatar GP by scoring a second MotoGP™ podium in race one .
