The ‘Porfuera’ commented on the news of the day
Marc Marquez official Ducati rider in 2025 and 2026. He was just missing officialdom after Jorge Martin’s move to Aprilia and the Borgo Panigale company issued the press release in the morning. The eight-time world champion thanked the Gresini team for having ‘bet’ on him in a difficult moment of his career and Luigi Dall’Igna underlined that he had chosen a “unquestionable talent” like Catalan.
Jorge Lorenzowho for weeks believed that Marc Marquez’s ‘promotion’ to the Factory Ducati team was ‘a given’ to prevent Ducati from losing the eight-time world champion, commented thus on Instagram this bombastic operation: “Wow, the best rider on the best bike. Will he be able to beat young champions like Bagnaia? 2025 will tell us.”
There is ‘only’ four years of difference between Bagnaia and Marquez given that Pecco was born in 1997 while Marquez was born in 1993. The Catalan, however, almost risked having to put an end to his competitive career due to the injuries he sustained. Marquez, on the occasion of Quartararo’s renewal with Yamaha, had underlined that he no longer had much time to try to enrich his portfolio (the Frenchman was born in 1999) and his all-in move to join the Ducati Factory via Gresini was successful. Marquez will wear red like Lorenzo did in the 2017-2018 period. The Majorcan won three races in 2018 separated at home after the renewal negotiation was unsuccessful. Alongside Andrea Dovizioso, Lorenzo’s heir was Danilo Petrucci, in 2019 Lorenzo tried to challenge Marquez on equal terms with Honda HRC, retiring at the end of the season. A few months later Marquez’s physical ordeal began and he constantly found his way to the podium in 2024 as a Gresini rider, earning the chance to aim for the world title again with the best bike of the lot starting from next season.
