Marc Marquez admits he’s receiving a lot of support from Gresini and Ducati as whispers about joining the factory Ducati team surface.
Marquez, who lost time early, caught the two-time reigning MotoGP champion before attacking twice at turn nine.But despite his best weekend aboard the Ducati in terms of performance, which did no harm in his attempts to join the factory Ducati team in 2025, Marquez does not want to think about the championship.
“This is something that in the test will be important. During the race weekend it is super difficult and still we need to understand something on the balance of the bike. One of the reasons for that is the natural speed he’s showing, which is not something that’s come about because of overriding, like at Honda.
“Sometimes in the past I was struggling with both tyres, or fighting with the front, but with this bike at the moment I am smooth and the lap time is coming. After two attempts at taking the lead during the grand prix, Marquez was unable to mount a late charge as Bagnaia set a new fastest lap deep into the race to create a small gap.
