Marc Marquez’s switch from Honda to Ducati has been compared to swapping a child’s bike for an adult’s bike.
Alex Marquez, who moved from LCR Honda to Gresini Ducati, made a brutal comparison between the two bikes. He stated that going from Honda to Ducati is like leaving a children’s bike to ride an adult bike. Alex believes that the Ducati is much more comfortable, allows for immediate competitiveness, and provides a lot of security and better sensations. He claims that his brother Marc, who will be his teammate at Gresini this year, has had more than 30 falls due to pushing the limits of the Honda bike. Alex believes that Marc, with the aid of a year-old Desmosedici, will be able to compete for the title in 2024. Alex himself experienced a career resurgence with Gresini last year, achieving a career-best ninth-placed finish in MotoGP. He hopes to reaffirm his position and fight for a top 3 finish in 2024. His ultimate goal is to be in an official team, but he is currently focused on maintaining a solid base by consistently finishing in the top 5 and making podium appearances.
