The MotoGP world will be watching Marquez’s every move next s🥂eason when he swaps﷽ Repsol Honda for Gresini Ducati.

Oꦦne of the biggest rider moves in MotoGP history is expected to give the current grid’s biggest star his best shot at winning a ninth world championship.

"We did almost scientific simulations,” Claudio Domenicali told about Marquez. “Comparin😼g his performance with that of his brother Alex, who raced in his current team. 

“But I won't say the results even under torture…”

Ducati waited 15 year🌳s to return to the top of MotoGP but, through Francesco Bagnaia, have won two chꦏampionships in a row.

This year the꧂ manufacturer totally dominated, with the three title contenders all representing different Ducati teams.

Domenicali predicted next year’s champion: "I choose Pecco: he's Italian, h💝e races in the official team and with him there is a particular empathy.&nbs💟p;

“B🐼ut Marc is a champion, if he ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚis good enough to deserve the title we will be happy.

“He will certainly fight until the ꧒end for the World Champio🥃nship.

"Marc will make us grow further: our other seven champions have begun to study the way he 🎉rides. 

“He will be a stimu꧒lus, an example. They will all become better. 

“We will have greater i🍌nternal competition, our opponents' race for the World Championship will become more complicated. ൩;

“This year Jorge Martin learned a lot from Bagnaia, and Pec❀c♋o will do the same with Marquez. 

“We will continue to raise the level, have ౠyou seen Di Giannantonio? Six out of 8 Ducatis have won ♔at least one GP.”

The Italian brand’sও dominance means that new concessions rules have been introduced for 2024 to aid their opponents.

Do♕menicali said about winning under new conditions: "It seems impossible. But we're trying. 

“Our opponents have asked to change the rules from next year, otherwise we're too strong f🍌or them. The organiser satisfied them. 

“No problem, on the contrary: for us it is the best marketing campaig💎n."
