Ducati boss Davide Tardozzi believes it will be “very easy” to manage Marc Marquez and Francesco Bagnaia throughout the 2025 MotoGP season.
Ducati signed Marquez in the first half of the 2024 MotoGP season, creating one of the strongest lineups in MotoGP history, with both riders winning a total of eight premier class titles. Marquez’s addition follows Bagnaia’s successful season with 11 Grand Prix victories in 2024, raising concerns about potential conflicts within the team. However, team manager Tardozzi remains confident in managing both champions smoothly, emphasizing their mutual respect and collaboration to improve the bike. Despite reigning champion Jorge Martin’s departure for Aprilia, Bagnaia, Marquez, and the third rider, Fabio Di Giannantonio, are not expected to receive preferential treatment for the upcoming 2025 season. Ducati is committed to supporting both riders equally, recognizing them as champions and expressing pride in having them on board.
