Gigi Dall’Igna has been reminded🤡 that delaying his decision over Ducati’s 2025 rider duo could backfire.

Choosinꦚg Francesco Bagnaia’s teammate in red next sea🏅son is a crucial decision which the entire rider market is waiting for.

Enea Bastianini’s contract expirﷺes although he has shown goodౠ form this season, while Jorge Martin and Marc Marquez are also candidates.

“The three big names are Pedro💛 Acosta - he’ll stay where he is, in KTM,” assessed Neil Hodgson on TNT Sports.

“But ꦰwhere’s Marc going? And where’s our championship leader going?

“They are the two with question marks.

“There are loads of rumours but we don’t know where they will end u🐈p.

“Marc wants a factory bike, so does Martin.

“There 🌜is a factory ride available next to Bagnaia, that’s the seat everybody wants. Who will get it?

“The champꩲionship leader is Martin and he wants it - you’d have to say, he’s the favourite.

“But does Gigi Dall’Igna wait? Because he can. He holdꦫs all t💃he cards.

“But, by waiting, you might miss Martin because he might not want to wa𝓰it too long.

“He’ll [might] get an opportunity to ride at Aprilia whꦐo have produced an incredible motorcycle that is capable ofꦗ winning the championship.”

Sylvain🔯 G🌌uintoli added: “It’s all kicking off behind the scenes.

🅠“The major players are signed - Bagnaia, Binder, Quartararo. I think it will fall into place quickly.

“It’s a given 𝓰that [KTM] will move Acosta quickly into the factory t꧋eam.

“[Bastianini] has not done anything wrong. Last season was ruined by ꧅injury which wasn’t his fault.

“[Ducati] might wai𝐆t. There could be a block at the top because they are waiting for the Ducati factory ride, for example, and things will go into the summer.”

Suzi Perry replied: “I’d sign Marc…”

Guintoli said: “But what if Martin wins the championship and takes the #1 somewhere e♌lse?”
