Not everybody in the paddock thinks Marc Marquez is a shoo-in for the ൩2025 factory Ducati team.

Enea Bastianini is the man in possession of the most coveted bike in MotoGP but his ow𓂃n form this season coul🐻d result in an extended stay next to Francesco Bagnaia, the reigning champion and his team’s star rider.

Gresini’s Marquez and Pramac’s Jorge Martin are alsღo jostling for the bike next to ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚBagnaia.

“Marc to the factorꦍy Ducati team? I jܫust can’t see it fitting,” Neil Hodgson told TNT Sports.

“But🐽, then, why would they not want Marc on their motorcycle?”

Suzi Perry replied: “They ha🀅ve opened 🦄the door. They have put Marc on a Ducati.

“There are people who have changed position♏s at Ducati, arguably, because of that.

“Because there were disagreements at the top of D🃏ucati whether this was against their DNA of what Ducaꩲti do, bringing riders in.

“They have brought Marc in. If he can win t🎃he championship on a factory Ducati…”

Hodgson replied: “Why would yღou not want him on your motorcycle?”

Perry: “It’s an incredible game of chess. It’s the most interesting landscape that we have, in🐲 terms of rider movement♔.”

Hodgson:🅰 “If he doesn’t sign for the factory Ducati team, if that isn’t available, where does he go?

“Surely he won’t wantꦺ to stay in the Gresini team on a year-old bike because of what he’s experiencing this year, w♚hen maybe the bike isn’t as good as it could be? Who knows.

“Where does he go? KTM? KTM are so stacked with talent and ♛h🌼ave their seats full.

“There are rumours saying KTM will want M𝓰arc. It will be Marc and Pedro Acosta, the dream team.

“Brad Binder already has a contract but they could move him 🐬into Tech3 GASGAS.

“I can’t see that happening, by the way.

“There are so many rumours.🅷 So where does Marc go?”

Marquez made it very clear at the America📖s MotoGP that he wants a factory bi💛ke in 2025.

Where that G💧P25 might be located is up for debate.

🍨Gresini would love access to a factory-spec machine to keep their star man but it appears unlikely.

Pramac, as well as the factory team, offer access to the new𝓡est bike.

And the other issue is whethﷺer Ducati will break their philosophy of bringing through their own young riders to ♈fast-track Marquez into their official team, potentially irking Bagnaia in the process.
