After the Japanese MotoGP, Marquez𝐆 was fielding questions from journalists about whether he will quit or stay at Honda in 2024.

But 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia, sat next to h🎉im in the same press conference, chimed in.

He joked: “Bye, bye Honda!”

Marquez awkwardly smiled back: “No, why?”

Marquez laughed෴ out loud in response to Bagnaia’s comme🍷nt.

“The kiss of Valentino,” Bagnaia smil📖ed in reference to a famous moment𝔉 from MotoGP history.

Valentino Rossওi wore a t-shirt saying “bye, bye baby” at the season-ending grand prix before quitting Yamaha to join Ducati, and was kissed on his 💧helmet.

Bagnaia was cheekily inferring that Marquez will make a similarly high-profil🔜e🍌 decision to leave Honda and link up with Gresini Ducati, as expected.

“It was a very romantic podium,” Marquez earlier smiled about his third-placed finish in♐ Japan.

Words that could clearly be un🦩derstood as a hint that he♏ won’t represent Honda at their home race ever again.

Marquez has been coy about his future but Ducati boss Gigi Dall’Igna dropped the💜 biggest hint yet, after the Japanese MotoGP, that the star rider is coming to Gresini.

Bagnaia, who will be his stablemate ne꧒xt season, is clearly enjoying the saga too.

But will Marquez have better luck at Ducati than his old ꦰenemy Rossi did, when he made his own ill-fated move?
