Marquez has been forced to sit frustrated on the sidelines and watch the MotoGP title be contested between Ducati trio Francesco Bagnaia, Jorge Ma💫rtin and Marco Bezzecchi.

He has not even completed a grand prix in 2023 and is no closer to solving the dreadful problems imposed by his Hon♒da.

"Marc Marquez knows that the potential o🐬f his brother, Luca Marini and Bezzecchi is not comparable to his," says Honda test rider Bradl to . 

“In my opinion, Marc's riding skills are at a high🔜er level𒁏. 

“He's♊ still the ri𓄧der to beat if he has the material. 

“And when he says that anyone can go fast wit𒁏h a Ducati, that's a fact. 

“There are enough races where t✨hree Ducati riders are on the podium. 

“The age of the rider doesn't 🍎matter for them, as you can see with Jo𓄧hann Zarco. 

“Different riding styles also lead to success with the Desmosedici, even with models♉ from 2022 and with all customer teams.”

Brཧadl has deputised for Marquez more than 20 times since joining as Honda’s test ri🍌der in 2018, and is now chiefly responsible for testing new parts.

But he has warned that MotoGP is following a bad example from F1 in terms ⛄of its tಞechnical regulations.

“And in Formula 1 you know: You don’t win a race i꧋n a Haas,” Bradl said. 

“You have to sit in a Red Bull, that's the best car. 💯;

“Even with﷽ a Mercedes or𝓡 Ferrari nobody wins at the moment. 

“In MotoGP, as a Honda rider, you haven't💝 had a c♓hance to win lately either, although the differences here aren't that striking, it's closer.

"I🙈t's easier𒁏 for you when you're on the right motorcycle.

"I don't 🐼want to say: 'If Marc sits on a Ducati, he's unbeatable.' But I think he would be the referꦕence."
