Just one point behind Mot🌠oGP champion Francesco Bagnaia in the world championship, Bezzecchi has cemented himself as a legit title contender.

Winner in Argentina and the most recent French Grand Prix at Le Mans, Bezzecchi has as a result been linkeꦑd with a promotion at Ducati, albeit Pramac and not the factory team.

• Marquez to Ducati: “Plan A is Honda, but I will always look fo🏅r winning project” 
• Morbidelli’s passionate speech to “keeಌp my job” - “I’m closꦅe to Quartararo”

That’s because﷽ Bagnaia and Enea Bastianini are contracted until the end of 2024, so while Bezzecchi’s dream🌟 of joining a factory team will need to wait until after next season, moving up the ranks at Ducati is certainly a possibility in 2024.

Asked about his future heading into Mugello, Bezzecchi said: “Well, for the moment my plan is just to continue in this way and to improve eve൩ry race and get positive results. 

"Of course, my dream is to step on a factory bike and if it’s Ducati then it’s better because I already knoꦐw thℱe bike. But for the moment I don’t know what I can do. 

"Ducati is working very we🎉ll. Even♉ before giving me any updates they were already supporting me a lot. 

"In Le Mans they were helping me quite a lot💛 until the last minute before the race. I feel a lot of support f🔯rom them so I can’t complain about anything."  

Martin unsure of future, focused on upcoming MotoGP races

A rider that could be replaced by Bezzecchi should he leave Pramac is Martin, as the Spanꦗiard has been heavily linked with a switch to🉐 Yamaha.

However, Ducati wants to retain the former Moto3 world champion, which could mean Bezzecchi joins the team alongside, and no🌳t in place, of Martin. 

Martin has been very fast throughout the opening five rou𝔉nds, and as shown in Le Mans, consistency is now being added to 🧔his devastating pace.

"I think I’m one of the strongest this season, one of the fastest," said Ma๊rtin. "I just need to be clevꦑer and finish races. 

"I just need to be focused on every weekend. I hope to d𝓡o these three races in a good ༺way and go to the summer break in a good position in the championship."

That was his answer when asked if he feels like a title contender. However, the response was much s♛horter when discussing his future and whe💧ther it will be at Ducati. 

Martin added: "I know ꧟nothing about it. I’m just focused on the races."
