Alex Marquez says it wওould be “perfect” if the 2025 MotoGP season started tomorrow amid his current testing form but꧃ warns the “real potential” of the factories hasn't been seen.

The Gres𓃲ini rider has inherited the GP24 Ducati that dominated last year, winning 19 of 20 grands prix and delivering the marque its th🦂ird successive world title.

Having made a str💎ong start to life as a Ducati rider in 2023 on the GP22, th💙e switch to the troublesome GP23 hindered Marquez’s 2024 campaign.

Topping the Barcelona test last November on the GP24, Marqu🀅ez was third f♔astest on day two of the Sepang test and was just 0.130s off the best pace.

Currently the second-fastest Ducati ove⛦rall at the test behind day two leader Fr🌺anco Morbidelli, Marquez is sure his advantage will disappear quickly.

“That would be perfect to already tomorrow be in the race of ꧒Thailand,” Marqᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚuez said.

“That would be perfect. But, I mean, still they will improv🅘e. The factory [Ducati team], for sure, they were tryꩵing many pieces.

“Last 🐬day tomorrow maybe, but especially in Thailand they will put ev✤erything together and then you will see the real potential of not just Ducati but KTM, all the other manufacturers.

“So, weﷺ are doing a good job, we are fast, we are solid.

“But with the feet on t𝕴he ground because there’s still a lot of pre-season left.”

Alex Marquez notes Ducati strong point

Marquez says corner-entry is a noticeable area of improvement on the 𝓡GP24 compared to the GP23, while he can “feel a little bit more” under acceleration with the GP24 ride height devꦿice.

“Especiall💙y on cornꦦer-entry is where I feel more comfortable,” he added.

“With the ’23 I was not able to perform on 🐼braking point, and especially I had a lot of weight on the front, pushing form the rear.

“This bike is more born for this rear tyre, t👍his bike is done for this rear tyre and it’s something easier to go into the corner and feel the b💞alance of the bike.

“[With the ride height device] in some accelerations you feel a little bit more, you canౠ put a little bit more of torque because you have a little bit less front wheeli﷽e.

“In some tracks, especially Thailand Turn 3 it ඣwill be a good boost. But, if all that you can win is 0.00🍌3s is always welcome.”
