Loris Capirossi, former 125cc world champion at just 17 years old, becoming the youngest rider to do so, looked at what could happen in 2024 in the premier class, remembering that the late Fausto Gresini would have liked to see Marc Márquez on his team.
‘I would like Fausto to be with us, because seeing Marc on the team would be something wonderful, amazing. In addition, the two brothers are on the team. I believe they will have an excellent team next season. Márquez will not have an official bike, but he will always be a protagonist. I am convinced that he will put on a great show,’ described the former rider in an interview with the Relevo portal.
‘This change of scenery will be good for him to continue showing the star he is. Marc has not forgotten how to win, I am convinced of that. Márquez is Márquez. Giacomo Agostini is worried because he told me that this guy can steal his record. Jokes aside, Marc is a visceral rider, with heart, who always pushes the limits. To all of this, we can add his enormous quality. He is perhaps the one who most resembles the geniuses of the past. He is not afraid of anything, but he is an intelligent guy who knows and masters everything. He has it all,’ he added.
Capirossi has no doubt that the next championship ‘will be one of the best in recent times’.
