Ducati Rider Andrea Dovizioso really do not have much choice in keeping the chances in the title race. He must win at Valencia, with the result was not yet sure to be a world champion.
The victory at Sepang, Malaysia, on October 29 has indeed made Dovizioso still able to breathe in his rivalry for the 2017 MotoGP world title with Marc Marquez (Repsol Honda).
However, the additional full points of the race also does not necessarily make the Dovizioso opportunity so great. In fact he still missed 21 points from Marquez ahead of the final series at Ricardo Tormo, Valencia.
With the big difference between the two riders, the only option that Dovizioso has to remain a chance to win this season is through victory in Valencia on 12 November.
The top podium in Valencia will also not automatically make Dovizioso will be world champion. There are conditions, relatively heavy, that must be fulfilled for him to become champion.
First of all, Dovizioso can hope Marquez can not add numbers in Valencia. Not impossible, though it will not be easy to come true, with Marquez this season has failed to add points in the previous three series of races.
In addition, Dovizioso can also hope that if any later Marquez can add points, the amount is no more than four numbers only
In the supposition scenario, Dovizioso wins (+25 points) and Marquez finishes 12th (+4 points), both riders will both have 286 points. Dovizioso has the right to be a world champion because it will have more series of wins than Marquez this season - so far both riders have six wins.
"We need a win, that's our only chance to win the title," Ducati Corse Dental Manager General Dall'Igna said as quoted by Speedweek.com when talking about Dovizioso's chances.
