Davide Tardozzi warned that Ducati will “lose PR exercise”
“That will sting, there is no doubt about it..."

Du𝓰cati will lose the PR war if Aprilia unveil a #1 plate on their 2025 bike, Davide Tardozzi has been told.
Pramac Ducati’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin takes a 24-point lead into this weekend’s MotoGP season-finale in Barcelona.
He is re♍d-hot favourite to wrap up his first title but will go to Aprilia in 2025 - meaning Ducati’s rival manufacturer could run the coveted #1 plate on Martin’s ♕bike next year.
Ducati team bos🐻s Tar♏dozzi insisted they will be content knowing Martin became champion on a Ducati, regardless of the appearance of next year’s Aprilia.
But TNT Sports’ Michael Laverty claimed: “That will sting, there 𒁏is no doubt about it.
“As much as they will sugarcoat it by🗹 saying he’s the champion on a Ducati in the record books, they will lose the PR exercise next year.
“And Aprilia w⭕ill gain it. They will stick the #1 plate on the Aprilia, for sure!
“You would capitalise on it.”
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia, who has won the title in each of the pa🦩st two seasons, must complete an almighty comeback in Barcelona to retain it.
And he arguably lacks assistance on the grid - teammate Enea Bastianini owes Ducati nothiꦏng after they replaced himౠ for 2025, and he will go to KTM.
Marc M🤡♔arquez is Bagnaia’s next teammate but he is unlikely to want to get involved in the title fight.
Laverty told Ducati: “They can’t force it. They can’t force Enea to help. Martin has been more consistent with le🐈ss mistakes.
“They’ve got a double world champion but this hasn’t been Pecco’🐠s year.”
Pramac are close to the huge coup of bea🧸ting their own factory to the title.
It would be a remarkable end to their alliance, because P🌠ram♚ac have signed up to become a Yamaha satellite project from 2025 onwards.
Neil Hodgson said: “It’s huge. That is a satellite team🐻 - they don’t have the same amount of personnel.
“It’s quite a step up to the full factory team.
“It has neveꦡr happened, we have never had a satellite team win the MotoGP title. I know Valentino Rossi won in 💧2001 on a full factory bike.
“But we’ve not had it, especially at this level.
“For a sate꧙llite ಞteam to put one over on the factory? It’s huge.
“If it happens, the fact that it’s Pramac? They are the friendly team, the🐈y’ve always been fri꧒endly.
“Paolo Campinoti who runs the team has be♏en in this paddock for 25 years, spending millions of his own money.”
