P1racenews AI automatic summary:
The Gresini team has no doubt that new superstar signing Marc Marquez can fight for race wins and the MotoGP title next season, as they also hope to convince him to stay for 2025.
The satellite Ducati team has surprised everyone by signing Marc Marquez, an eight-time world champion, away from Repsol Honda to join his brother Alex on year-old Desmosedicis. The team’s Commercial & Marketing Director, Carlo Merlini, expressed how this is a dream come true and thanked Marc for his trust in the team. Having Alex in the team and sharing the same manager made the negotiations easier. The team hopes to see Marc on their bike for the Valencia test, pending approval from Honda. Their goal with Marc for 2024 is to be on top of the rankings and fight for the championship, with the hope of extending his contract beyond that. Fausto Gresini’s absence is felt, and the team wonders how he would react to having such a great rider in the team.
