Mar𒐪tin finished arguably the💧 most important race of his season, maybe even his career, in tenth spot while title rival Francesco Bagnaia went on to finish second.

As a result, a furious Martin blꦯamed Michelin after feeling as though a faulty rear tyre was the cause for his performance.

Saying the title had been decided b🐷ecause of a bad tyre, Martin then admitted that Michelin had given him no answers in the pre-event press conference for this weekend’s s🍌eason-finale at Valencia.

But Micheling has since responded, with Piero Tarama✱sso telling MotoGP.com: “I think everybody knows what happened in Qatar, Jorge was quite hard in his criticism of Michelin. We understand the position of Jorge, he was fighting for the cha🌞mpionship. Riders have a lot of adrenaline. 

“We spoke with Jorge, with Pramac and with Ducati. What I want to tel﷽l you is that we took this matter very seriously. Right after ⭕the race, we sent all data. 

“We sta🎃rted to cꦇheck all the processes of manufacturing, all the parameters. 

“What I can tell you is that there is no manufacturing problem, no quality problem, about the rear tyre of Jor𝔍g𓂃e. This is the most important thing for us.”

But that wasn’t it as Taramasso, who ꦑfirstly thanked Pramac and Ducati for supplying the tyre manufacturer with extra data from the sprint race whic🐬h Martin won, said that the concludion is not ‘100% clear’.

“Then, thanks to Pramac and Duca🅰ti, we got some data from the race and from the sprint,” began Taramasso. “We started to analyse. Yesterday, we exchanged the analysis with Pramac and Ducati. We agreed wit🐻h the conclusion. 

“The conclusion today is not clear 100% but we saw some hypotheses, some ways we need to work to maꦉke it more precise. 

“What we agree is that the performance of Jorge was not in line with what everybody expected, especially from Lap 7 until the end of the race. We will still work, we still﷽ have a lot of data to analyse, it is only three days since the race finished in Qatar.&nb🦩sp;

“We are working on different hypotheses. One 🔯hypot🐬hesis is the working range of the rear tyre, the rear hard compound. 

“We know it is🌳 quite narrow. We need to c🍰ontinue with this, then we will have more answers later.”
