Racing History in the Making: Marc Marquez Set for Thrilling Ducati Debut at Valencia Test

P1racenews AI automatic summary:


Marc Marquez has been cleared to make his Gresini Ducati debut at next month’s Valencia MotoGP test.

Alberto Puig, team manager of the Repsol Honda team, stated that there will be no objection from Honda for Marc Marquez to ride at the Valencia test. Despite agreeing to terminate the final year of his current contract, Marquez is still under contract with HRC until the end of this year. Therefore, special permission was required for him to participate in the test. The announcement of Marquez’s replacement at Repsol Honda has yet to be made, but there are strong indications that current Gresini rider Fabio di Giannantonio will take his place. The Valencia test is scheduled for November 28. In a similar situation, when Valentino Rossi left Honda in 2003, he was not allowed to test for his new Yamaha team until January 2004. Puig, a former rider, took over as Repsol Honda team manager in 2018.
