Since then Morbidelli has not w🐼on a race and only has one podium to his name.

But after stepping aboard a Ducati for the first time in his MotoGP career dur🌞ing last year’s post-season test at Valencia, Morbidelli’s new team manager Borsoi has high expectations.

Speaking to , Borsoi said: “It was only a day – or a day and a half bec🤡ause we also saw each other on Monday. There is little time to make a judgment. 

“Bꦗut he seems to me to be a fantastic guy, he has a fantastic personality. What I'♔ve seen so far: He seems very easy to talk to. He is very open, he listens when it comes to what he needs. 

"I believe that thaꦉnks to these characteristics we will work ver🎃y well together right from the start."

Borsoi alsℱo said that Morbidelli is𝕴 eager to show everyone that he can be as competitive as ever.

“These characteri🌱stics will probably also accelerate the path he has to take in order to be competitive,” added Borsoi. "It's a pleasure to have s♊uch a person in the pits - a rider with a sunny disposition and a strong will to show that he is still Franco Morbidelli."
