Ducati will not confirm their 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:2025 MotoGP rider line-up at Mugello this weekend.

The date of the Italian MotoGP ha𒁃s been widely circulated as the deadline for the Italy-based manufacturer’s massive call over who will partner Pecco Bagnaia next season.

His current teammate 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Enea Bastianini, Gresini’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez and Pramac’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin are in the hat for the coveted red bike.

But they will 💯now be forced to wait e💟ven longer to learn their fate.

“We have never said that we are going to announce it at Mugello,” a Du๊cati spokespersoꦉn told .

“What we have always said is that, from Mugello onwards, we will begin to outline what theꦍ decision is.”

Ducati general manager G👍igi Dall’Igna said: “The decision will come soon, but then contracts are always complicated and negotiations can take longer than expected.

“We will need time to apply the idea, make it a reality and then communღicate it to the public.”

Ducati CEO Claudioও Domenicali told Sky Italia: "They are all top-level riders, but we are confident that we will be able to find the right balance.”

The Italian MotoGP this we♏ekend is the seventh round of the 2024 season.

Afterwards, there is a thr💝ee-week break until Assen.

Ducati’s monumental decision has tꦗhe entire MotoGP paddock waiting on its outcome.

Bastianini’s first year as a factory rider was wrecke🌌d by injury and has put him oꩲn the back foot this season.

In-form Martin was denieꦺd the championship at the final round last year, and as a result missed out on the 🐷automatic promotion to the factory team that the title would have brought.

Martin leads the MotoGP championship after𝕴 six rounds he🔴ading into Mugello.

He has claimed he willಞ quit Ducati if he doesn’t wear red in 2025.

Ducati ꦇhave welcomed the high-profile Marquez into their ranks this year, at an independent team.

But Marquez insists he was a factory-spec bike next year, not the year-old version which he currentl🦩y rides.

The knock-on effect of this rider decision also impaꦚcts Pramac, as a team.

They are c꧟onsidering whether to stay with Ducati next ye💜ar or go to Yamaha.

As a result, Gresini and VR46 are also affecte꧒d as Ducati’s other satellite teams.

Other key movements in the rider market𓆏 are also awaiting Ducati’s decision, to discover which riders or which bikes will become available in 2025.
