The MotoGP world is abuzz with speculation about the future of Marc Marquez. Marquez, who went through one of the most difficult periods of his career, clearly stated that he was unhappy due to the balance problems he experienced with Honda. So where might Marquez's future lie? The current signs seem to be towards the Italian team Gresini Ducati.
Marquez and Honda Relationship
Marc Marquez has been known for his successful collaboration with Honda for many years. However, the recent problems he experienced with his Honda motorcycle caused him to have the worst season of his career. Marquez could not reach the podium even once in the 2021 and 2022 seasons and struggled with injury. During this difficult period, Marquez's desire to continue with Honda became questionable.
Gresini Ducati Claims
There is a lot of speculation in the MotoGP world about Marquez's future. Marquez was first mentioned with KTM, but no steps were taken in this direction because the team did not have a vacant motorcycle. However, a recent surprise claim attracted attention: Gresini Ducati!
Gresini Ducati have proven in recent years that they can compete for the championship despite being on an old motorcycle. This could be an ideal option for Marquez.
Marquez's Decision
According to the latest news, Marquez prefers Gresini Ducati. But there is an obstacle here: Marquez's contract with Honda also covers the next season. Therefore, negotiations will need to be started with Honda for a possible separation.
According to the latest news from Sky Italy, “Marc Marquez has made his choice: The Spanish rider has decided to race with Gresini Ducati in 2024, in the same team with his brother Alex.” However, before the agreement can be officially announced, a way out must be found with Honda.
