The rivals and challenges Marc Marquez must overcome in MotoGP 2024
“The greatest rider of his generation is now on machinery from the dominant manufacturer. Is Marc Marquez ready to banish his recent struggles for Honda and reclaim his crown? As Orwell once wrote, ‘there’s time for everything except the things worth doing’. In Marquez’s case, the thing worth doing is being competitive again on a MotoGP bike. At 31 years old, Marquez is at least halfway through his MotoGP career, and for the past four seasons he has found himself facing myriad adversity. Marquez’s move to Gresini Racing on a year-old satellite Ducati was necessary if he has any hope of stopping too much time passing him by. Marquez has always said – publicly at least – that his aim coming into 2024 is not solely the title. After the past few years, he just needs to know whether he can be competitive again.”
