Interesting. I did like Joan Mir's comment on the Honda - basically he said its still shit Marc Marquez is going to block-pass his way to the 2025 title which will be wrapped up with 10 races to go The World Champion getting used to life on the Aprilia and the sound of fairings sliding on gravel - as Marc Marquez passes him on a shiny new Factory Ducati oh dear, never mind, it will all be fine I am sure . Should be good ...
Interesting to get a preview of next years bikes and also the teams. Odd that the VR46 team have gone for 1* GP25 and 1* GP24. Surely they can just copy the new bits off the GP25 and put onto the GP24 themselves. Also noted that MM93 and PB63 have different coloured bikes, one red and one white, don't remember a team doing that before unless they just ran out of red paint and they didn't bother to paint their #2 rider. Now got to wait 3 months to get going for real.
Going to need sunglasses if MM is racing bike and leathers in those colours, hurts my eyes. Yes, you can have too much red! I thought Fabio had a good showing in testing. It is no pointer to race pace come the season though, have made that mistake before...
I'm just waiting for the 93 race Replica from Ducati if he wins the title down the line at mega money for those that've grown up Long trousers.
Pramac did the same this year, only JM had the 24 spec bike. Frankie was on the last years bike all season.
Sorry but that's not right. Bagnai, Bastianini, Martin and Morbidelli all had the latest spec factory bike (GP24) in 2024. Would have given Morbidelli an excuse but no, seems he had the same bike as the others. Just watched an interview with Dalligna on motogp.com. He confirms Ducati are going from 4 factory bikes in 2024 down to 3 in 2025. He doesn't give a satisfactory explanation considering KTM, Aprilia, Honda and Yamaha will all have 4 full factory bikes.
