The Braun interview on the grid was interesting where he said he wouldn't have Pecco and Marquez in same team. But in F1 they tend to have lead driver. This won't end well...be like PBM in BSB last year
I so hope this is accurate, and JMs attitude will have cost him dearly, if he doesn't win this years world championship he'll never win one.
Because he is still the fastest rider when on the best bike and the biggest draw for sponsors and the crowds. I doubt they fancied seeing a rejuvenated Marquez riding against them on a factory KTM or Aprilia.
I'm glad its looking to go the way of MM93 rather than the petulant child, thats if Autoport are right, crash.net still only reporting it as strongly expected rather than deal done. Was made up for Enea beating JM ..
JM announced at Aprilia https://www.crash.net/motogp/news/1050064/1/official-jorge-martin-joins-aprilia-motogp-2025
Great. MM taking points off Baggy and Baggy taking points off MM. Fingers crossed that Aprilia continues to improve. This is all good for the racing. Next…tyre pressure rule for the bin! Cant wait tbh, and already enjoying this year. MM factory Duke JM factory Aprilia Acosta factory KTM oh yes, bring it on.
Groan... I was hoping Jorge Martin was going to get the factory Ducati ride. He's been racing the wheels off that Ducati and in my opinion he deserves the factory seat. Let’s hope Aprilia have a competitive package for next season.
JM to Aprilia means they have a winner in the team. Factory Ducati really doesn’t need MM93, he should have gone to KTM, but I imagine Enea will go there so 2025 is on for a proper competition.
Arguably true, but Ducati don't want anyone other team to have him and all the worldwide attention that he brings.
So who do Ducati drop to make way for MM and where does MV go now given JM is the new kid on the Aprilia block
I’m not too smug but I did predict this in another thread a few days ago. Excellent move by Ducati. IMHO.
