Another interesting thing that I really want to point out after the news about Jorge Martin preferring to race with Aprilia next year, coupled with rumors that Pramac Racing will leave Ducati and move to Yamaha, is whether after this Ducati Corse will change their support policy for Jorge Martin and Pramac. ? It is Gigi Dall’Igna who is perhaps best suited to answer it. .
“We carry out activities in the field of sports, so we have to act in a sporting manner. There is nothing to say about the management of Ducati’s satellite bikes over the years, everyone has the opportunity to express their talent and grow with our bikes, the same will happen. “For Martin, he will not lack technical support and human resources from us,” he said.
Apart from Martín, Ducati will lose Enea Bastianini who only reached the semi-finals. “Enea has done extraordinary things at Ducati, even with a private team, she has had an extraordinary journey to reach the factory team. He had bad luck: he threw away the first season because he crashed in the first race, he has done extraordinary things on Ducati. no chance to prove his worth.”
“We have two giants ready to fight, who come from different paths, and Bastianini is out. The atmosphere we currently have in the Ducati team is extraordinary, and the aim is to continue to maintain that atmosphere next year.”
“I hope to start to relax, because this is a complicated decision, both from a sporting point of view and from a humanitarian point of view, because no rider crosses the line. There are never any mistakes. I have changed my decision on reflection several times in the last few days, but in the end I am convinced that Márquez is the right choice. We have the best team in Ducati history. Sunday of the Mugello weekend (2 June 2024) we only have a little time to think about the details of his (Marc’s) contract.”
In 2025 Dall’Igna ensures that Ducati will have the best pair of riders in history, and is confident they will be at the same level. “I think so, they are two champions, they have great determination, they both know how to suffer. They will fight equally. “We will see a great World Championship, all the fans at home will enjoy watching our drivers fight on the race track,” Gigi concluded his statement via Sky Sport.
However, logically, since June 2024, it is certain that Jorge Martin and Enea Bastianini will no longer be included in the Ducati Desmosedici GP25 development project, of course because basically they will be Ducati’s competitors starting next year.
