Jus popped up on my news feed! Haven’t verified it but you would assume it will be a family affair over on the satellite Ducati ?
Will be great to see him on a Ducati. Should mix things up even further next season. Honda once again losing the best rider because they think winning is down to them but not winning is down to the rider.
IF MM signs with Gresini, given the inference in a recent interview with Paolo Ciabatti, I strongly suspect his contract will be with Gresini not Ducati so independent team status and last year’s equipment. Andy
…and if he’s as good as he thinks he is that won’t matter an iota. Next year’s Ducati won’t be a massive step up from this year’s already stellar bike.
Marquez thinks he’s the best rider on the grid. And he probably is. Interesting times ahead. I watched live on Sunday. Fekin ill and I couldn’t sleep…. He’d have won that race had it not been red flagged. The rain removed the Doocardi rocket ship performance and the bogeyman was reeling them in… mwu ha ha ha haaaar…
It will be interesting to see how Ducati go about prioritising parts/upgrades/team orders if 93 does jump on it and starts winning races straight away.
Marc is a faster rider than his brother. Alex has already won a race in his first year on the bike. Marc WILL win races on it assuming Ducati don’t restrict him too much.
The new season will be interesting to see how Ducati manage the riders they have and the priority they give. Bit of a nightmare for them to manage, but, nice problem to have for them. Also be interesting to see how Honda and Yamaha respond to the Ducati's dominance.
What great news! One of the greatest riders of all time now unfettered by a bike that is no longer competitive. Looking forward to seeing MM93 on the top step.
The sport will definitely benefit from having MM93 on a competitive bike for 2024. The reality is, 2024 MotoGP becomes a one-make tournament.
