Maꦬrc Marquez has made his first appearance as a factory Ducati MotoGP rider carrying Monster sponsor🦄ship following his split with Red Bull.

The eight-time grand prix world champion has been a Red Bull athle꧑te throughout his career in the MotoGP paddock, with the brand staying with him when he moved to the Gresini Ducati squad.

However, when he signed a deal to join the factory Ducati team for 2025, it was long-thought this wo𝔉uld cost him his personal sponsorship with Red Bull due to the squad’s Monster Energy pa♋rtnership.

During his final a🍸ppearance with Red Bull at an event at the brand’s Hangar 7 complex in Austri🏅a, he confirmed he will not continue with this sponsorship in 2025.

On Monday, Marquez 🙈made his first public appearance as a factory Ducati rider in Italy and was sporting ൲Monster Energy logos on his leathers.

However, Marquez will not be an official Monster athlete in 2025 - leaving the door open for a return to Reꦐd 💧Bull in future.

The Red Bull logos on Marquez's crash helmet have been replaced by Estrella Gal▨icia branding.

Marquez will partner double MotoGP world cham🦋pion Francesco Bagnaia at the factory Ducati squad for the next two years.

In his fꦅirst year on the Desmosedici, Marquez won three grands prix with Gresini and finishe𝔍d third in the standings.

Bagnaia ended the year as runner-up after losing the ti🎐tle to Pramac’s Jorge Martin by 10 points in the Barcelona finale.

Martin has moved to the factory Aprilia squad for thღe 2🉐025 season.

Ducati dominated the 2024 season, winning 19 of the 20 grands prix𓆉 and securing the constructors’ championship by 395 points over KTM.
