Martin leaves
Last Sunday, after the victorious race at Mugello, the Ducati had to decide who would join ‘Pecco’ Bagnaia in the official Lenovo team next season and the choice fell on Marc Marquez, six-time world champion in the premier class.
For Jorge Martin was a real shockso much so that the Spanish rider, world leader, spoke with Massimo Rivola and in one night signed the contract that will bind him to Aprilia for the 2025 and 2026 championships.
And this World Cup?
But first we need to conclude a 2024 in which Jorge Martin has the concrete possibility of winning the world championship ahead of him, given that leads the standings with 18 points ahead of Bagnaia and 35 over Marquez. Many are wondering if Martin will be guaranteed the same support on the GP24 entrusted to the Pramac team that he has enjoyed up to now.
It was he who swept the field away from the allegations Davide Tardozzi to CycleWorld: “Gigi Dall’Igna said it clearly and I repeat it: Martin will have everything he needs to win, as he has so far. He will have everything to fight for the title. Ducati has put itself in a difficult situation, with the world championship contesting between Martin, Bagnaia and Marquez. And even Bastianini cannot be excluded from the dispute“. Tardozzi then concluded: “The Ducati choice was made based on the results, the value of the riders and future possibilities. She wasn’t influenced by what Marquez said. However, the season is still very long. Martin is in the lead and Pecco has shown how strong he is. He has the number 1 on his hull and we hope he can confirm it for the third time”.
