The incredible rise of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Valentino Rossi’s squad this season has seen 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marco Bezzecchi emerge as a MotoGP tit💃le contender, winning his first and his 🎐team’s maiden grand prix.

The shuffling of seats ahead of the 2024 season is underway and ꦓDucati’s numeric💖al advantage on the grid means they have decisions to make which will have a knock-on effect.

"Bezzecchi dese💎rves a factory bik🥀e,” sporting director Ciabatti told .

“We will have to u♏nderstand how it will be manageable in 2024 given that there will be only four factory bikes.”

A hypothesis is that Bezzecchi remains within the VR46 ranks, who receive factory bikes, rather than switching to Pram﷽ac.

Bezzecchi previously said:𝕴 “Having a factory bik🐼e is a dream, but I would like it here with Mooney VR46. 

“My guys are the key t꧂o my successes, without them🐻 I would not do these things. An unofficial Ducati is also fine, but I would always want my team with me."

A seat at Gres🍃ini Racinജg is possibly opening up within the Ducati faction.

"Alex Marquez is confirꩵmed even if there has been no announcement f෴or next year,” Ciabatti said. 

“Fabio Di🌟 Giannantonio has been given a certain period of time to decide if we will extend the con💖tract or not."

There are sui🍸tors to the Gresini seat alongs🌼ide Marquez.

“[M🍌ana🍨ger] Carlo Pernat came forward for Tony Arbolino,” Ciabatti confirmed.

“And we talked to VR46 for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Franco Morbidelli. In the paddock there is also talk thaಞt he can replace Toprak in Superbike."

Morbidelli’s contract with Yamaha will expire at the end of this season and he has been invo🎉lved in a saga, spanning the entirety of 2023 so far, 🌸about whether they will extend it.

More recently Morbide🏅lli has publicly shown indifference about remaining on his underwhe🍌lming Yamaha.

Morbidelli had been linked with a move to VR46, a🙈s a graduate of Rossi’s academy, but that depended on Bezzecchi being moved i🔯nto another spot within Ducati.

But now, with Bezzecchi’s prefer๊ence to stay in the environment that he is thriving in, the vacancy is set to be at Gresini, withꦇ Di Giannantonio at risk.
