Marquez ‘wishes to cross paths’ with Honda again in MotoGP
After 11 successful years together, Marc Marquez and Honda have decided to part ways at the end of this season. Marquez will be joining the Gresini Ducati squad in 2024, riding a year-old Desmosedici. Although he expressed the difficulties he faced in making this decision and leaving his long-standing Honda crew, Marquez did not rule out the possibility of reuniting with Honda in the future. Miguel Oliveira from Aprilia is rumored to be the top candidate to replace him at Honda, although nothing concrete has been proposed. Marquez emphasized the emotional challenge of breaking an 11-year relationship with Honda, but also expressed his desire to continue his career and enjoy the sport again. He chose the Gresini team because of its strong family atmosphere, the best bike on the grid, and the presence of his brother. Marquez sees this move as a big change and a new challenge, but ultimately one that he hopes will bring joy and success to his racing career. He also mentioned that staying with Honda in MotoGP would have been the easier option for him.
