Ducati has been the MotoGP reference in recent years and, from what it seemed in the pre-season tests, it appears that in 2024 they may once again have an advantage over the competition.

One of the constructors best placed to challenge Ducati’s dominance is KTM. Their test rider, Pol Espargaró, was asked by the Marca newspaper if the Austrians could avoid Italian manufacturer’s dominance. #44 replied:

– Hopefully, that is the goal. However, it will be difficult because Ducati has taken another small step forward this year. The 2024 bike seems to work very well and it will not only be a problem for KTM. It will be for all the other constructors, but we are in it.
