Adding information still surrounds the puzzle as to which of the 3 racers (Martin, Bastianini and Marc Marquez) will fill another seat on the Lenovo Ducati 2025. In general, many people are asking why Marc Marquez’s name is suddenly mentioned by Gigi Dall’Igna. . Why isn’t Bezzecchi’s name, who ended the season in third place last year? . ? There is a lot of speculation and outside analysis that might be the reason. . One of them is what was announced by the figure of Jorge Martin. .
“I will understand it. “That’s Marc Marquez, the eight-time world champion, from a marketing perspective he’s a monster and I can understand that position,” Martin said of the prospect of the former Honda star getting a factory Ducati seat. “This reassures me that the other brands are waiting to see what happens, if so, they will close (sign) me. Whatever happens, I won’t be without a motorbike [next year] and I will have a good choice.”
“My first option is very clear. If I don’t get that option, I’ll look for another obvious option. My idea is always a winning bike, or a winning project, if I can’t. Right now my focus is on winning and having the best bike. That’s what I focus on. What can happen does not depend on me. Aprilia is the winning bike, KTM is the winning bike. Certainly Honda and Yamaha will be like that in the next few years. But for now I’m still young and I want to win.”
Previously, at the start of the 2024 Le Mans race weekend, Gigi Dall’ Igna had given important instructions at Le Mans about how he would make decisions regarding Team mate Pecco. “We must not only consider the 2024 race. We have to consider the entire history of our riders.” It was this piece of “all history” diction that was speculatively interpreted by some as an indication that Marquez – who has a history as an eight-time world champion – would gain that specialty.
