The future of Jorge Martín is one of the hot topics in MotoGP. The rider leads the championship comfortably and has legitimate ambitions to move to the Ducati factory team – where he did not get a spot even after finishing as runner-up in 2023.
During the press conference after his victory at the French GP, the Spanish rider was asked if he believes that the Borgo Panigale manufacturer will once again overlook him. Martín replied:
– People always ask me about this. I don’t want to talk about it. I think that even if I win here or win in Montmelò, or not, I am the same rider, the same person, so that won’t change the decision, let’s say. Whatever happens, it will be good.
In addition to Martín, two other riders are seen as top candidates for the Ducati seat: Enea Bastianini, who currently holds it; and Marc Márquez, who joined Gresini this year.
