“I would be really surprised” if Ducati made a crunch call with Alex Marquez
Alex Marquez has been informed that reuniting with his brother in the same team garage is highly unlikely after their previous stint together at Gresini Ducati.
The Marquez brothers were teammates last season at Gresini Ducati, before Marc moved to the factory Ducati team this season alongside Pecco Bagnaia.
Although Marc has excelled on the GP25, it is Alex Marquez who has been his closest rival on an older Ducati, rather than Bagnaia who has equal machinery.
Alex Marquez’s hopes for a factory Ducati seat alongside his brother have been tempered by experts who doubt its feasibility over displacing an Italian champion within the team.
As Ducati looks to the future, their faith seems to lie with riders like Fermin Aldeguer, a young talent impressing in his rookie season and highly regarded by the manufacturer.
Despite speculation, Bagnaia affirms that he continues to enjoy the support of Ducati’s CEO.
