168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez has again made it cꦐlear that he wants a facto𒉰ry bike in 2025.

Marquez is only contracted to Gresini for one൩ season so, in the coming weeks, will reopen talks about his future.

Having already dropped a clue that he was keeping his options open, Marquez insisted ahead of the Spanish MotoGP that he does want a latest-spec motorcycle.

“The fuꦫture? Of course, at the moment I donꦡ’t have anything clear,” he said.

“Of course, I would like a factory bike. Th🃏is is something th𒁏at is always a plus.

“This year, of course, is something super special in my career. Because 🐎I𒈔 was coming from four years super difficult.

“But the🐻n I proved, a♏nd showed to myself (which was the most important) that I am still competitive.

“So my work is to do 100% to have a fact♍ory bike for next year.

“Thꦗen? Let’s see. I don’t have contact with anybody.

“I want to do my best. If you are f🌃ast on the race track, you will have more options.”

Marquez was asked if he has already openedꦕ talks with teams to discuss 2025.

“Around Jerez, 🍰Le Mans and Mugel🍃lo, some contact will start. This is true,” he said.

“But at the moment I 🗹have some margin on the race track to keep going.”

Gresini are contracted to remain as a satellite Duc🐓ati team next year. Their terms are to ride year-old bikes, but they are reportedly trying to convince Ducati to give them one GP25 next seaso🌟n.

That would enable Marquez to stay.

But the situation a🍎round Ducati’s other satellite teams is th♐e issue.

Pramac and VR46’s contracts are coming to an end, and they are nego💜tiating their futures.

Pramac, like the factory team run GP24s this season while VR46, like Gresini, ha✨ve GP23s.

Pramac can a🐠ctivate a contractual clause to stay with Ducati for two more years on the same 🦂terms, and keep their factory bikes.

But the💯 delay in activating this clause has caused doubt around Pr💫amac’s future.

Yamaha are reportedly in “advanced talks” to prise Pramac away, into🥀 their r🎀anks for 2025.

I𝕴f Pramac leave Ducati, their tw❀o factory bikes are up for grabs.

Although VR46 will also want access, it e𝕴nhances Gresini’s chances of landing the GP25 that Marqu🔯ez wants to ride.

Marquez’s other key option t🤪o secure a GP25 is obviously to ride for the official Ducati team, alongside Frances😼co Bagnaia, next year.

Should Marquez move manufacturers - however unlikely tha🔜t seems after a year of adaptation to the Ducati - then Aprilia could offer a factory bike. Maverick Vinales was already quizzed about the potential arrival of Marquez.

Any hope of a return to Honda is surely a non-start🐭er a🍨fter their poor start to this year.

How will Marquez avoid COTA crash repeat?

Last time out, Marquez crashed from the lead ꦍat th𒉰e Americas MotoGP due to a braking problem.

“The crash was my fault.,” he said.

“Because if you have a problem you need to understand it, and try to preventಞ itꦇ.

“It was unpr🌃edictable to kn💜ow when I would have that problem.

“Specifically on Turn📖 1, when I overtook Pedro Acosta, the front tyre temperature goes a lot.

“When I arrived at the first hard brake point▨, the brake was empty.

“The team is working super hard with Ducati to see what we can do for the future, t🐼o not have this 🐲problem again.

“The first thing is to change the front level.

“Like this, if ܫI have a problem, I will have more margin.

“I’m here to learn ꦅthings. There are a few things.

“The most important is that the speed is there. “Now we need to clean the small things to be more consistent in the top posit🍸ions.”
