Alex Marq💝uez admits he is searching for a Plan B ami🙈d Ducati’s huge rider decisions for next season.

The Gresini rider wants to stay put in his current team but, with a huge reshuffle plausible, he is working to guarantee his place in the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:2025 MotoGP rider line-up.

Alex’s brother Marc is at the centre of silly season but Alex🌄 himself has barely been mentioned, even though his📖 Gresini contract expires this season.

“Normally things go from the top guys,” 🌞Alex said about the rider market, referencing Ducati’s decision over their 2025 factory line-up.

“Everybody is waiting. Marc, Jorge, Enea…

“We need to wait. I speak with Nad🐻ia an✅d Gresini. I am calm with what they are saying to me.

“I am working on more options to ✤have a Plan B because you never know what will happen with this situation.

“My preference is to continue with Gresini.”

Alex was asked about Ducati’s call, whether to 🤪replace Enea Bastianini with 🐠Marc Marquez or Jorge Martin.

His warning was t𒉰hat whoever is overlooked could haunt Duc🦹ati riding a rival’s bike.

“My opinion is not fair,” he said. “I would take mܫy brother!

“It’s a difficult decision. I think Ducati need to be quite 🌞calm because whatever decision they take will be a good one.

“It’s ✨𒅌not like they are playing with their future. This one, the other, the other… they are all good ones.

“The rider they will lose is a proble🌱m for them. Because he will go to another manufac🌳turer and will be fast.”

“Marc Marquez is more relaxed because he is fast"

The smile th♋at has returned to the face of his♋ illustrious brother Marc is because he is a less-pressurised satellite team atmosphere, it was suggested to Alex.

But he replied: “The aꦐtmosphere on the team can be more relaxed but the pressure is still there.

“Who wasn’t saying, at t♑he start, where Marc would be after the first ﷽race? This is pressure.

“He is more relaxed because he is fast.

“You can be in a satellite team but, if you are not fast, the smile w🐬ill not come.

“He is really goo♊d at Gresini. His decision has weight because I have said to him that he is c🧜omfortable here.”

This weekend’s Catalunya MotoGP brings Alex back to familia𓂃r surroundings, but to a trac♏k where he is yet to excel in the premier class.

“I have been fast here in Moto3 and Moto♛2,” he said. “In MotoGP I have never had the bes🦋t weekend here.

“With🐲 Hondaꦅ this was a track where we suffered with the grip.

“The set-up and the setting [on the ꦑDucati] has changed a lot [from last year].

“It’s a flow track with not a lot of braking pꦑoints. You need to always have speed. It depends on the bike - if you have a bike which turns a lot, you will have more grip.

“It is something that Aprilia have here. They have good turning on the first corners. They ha♓ve speed so don’t stress about the grip.

“We are good in corners where we use the ꦦfront brake really deep. If we flow more, we suffer more. We pick up, but a little too late.  April🐻ia can turn the bike, are on a better line.”
