So, Marquez’s move to Gresini means he꧃ and engineer extraordinaire Dall’Igna w🐬ill both be in the dominant Ducati camp next season.

Honda tried to lure Dall’Igna, the main brain behind the Desmosedici project, but🔯 failed - then saw their star rider go and join him at Ducati.

asked Dall’Igna: “Is there so much mutual respect that🙈 if you had gone to Honda, Marc would have stayed in HRC?🃏”

He replied: "We s🌳hould ask him this, I guess so. But it's a question to ask Marc. Only he can answer."

Dall’Igna explained 💮his reasons to stay: "We have and I have made a lot of ef🐼fort in recent years. 

“Now that we are reap꧙ing the benefits, it seemed bad and stupid to leave. 

“I have a fantas♎tic group, both from a technical and rider point of view. 

“I want to win again, I don't like finishing second. it makes me f🦂ee🙈l physically ill. 

“Ducati is the best place to be right now."

Factory Ducati rider Francesco Bagnaia and Pramac’s Jorge Martin are fighting for the MotoGP title with five rounds remaining, with VR46’s Marco Be🃏zzecchi also in the mix.

Next year the enviꦜronment will shift 🍌with Marquez riding a year-old Ducati too.

"It was an operation carried out by the Gresini team, we have to say well done to them because it was a complicated si𒊎tuation. 

“That an eight-time world champion wants Ducati is something that makes us proud 💮and gives us great pleasure."
