Honda allows Marquez to participate in post-2023 testing for Gresini Ducati, despite leaving the team one year before the end of his contract.
After winning three successive premier-class titles for Honda , Rossi sensationally announced he would be joining the struggling Yamaha project in 2004.
Given Honda’s stance after the loss of its previous multi-time champion, Marquez must have felt some trepidation at receiving permission to take part in the vital day of post-2023 testing on November 28. Perhaps for that reason, Honda’s current team management has given permission for Marquez to test for Gresini Ducati at Valencia, rather than wait for the first test of 2024 at Sepang in February.Underlining that such permission cannot be taken for granted is the news that Toprak Razgatlioglu must wait until December to make his BMW WorldSBK debut, having not received the green light from Yamaha to ride in this week's Jerez WorldSBK test.
