Ducati has been the benchmark in MotoGP in recent years, and from what appeared in pre-season tests, it seems that in 2024, it may once again have an advantage over the competition.
One of the constructors best positioned to challenge Ducati’s dominance is KTM. Their test rider, Pol Espargaró, was asked by Marca newspaper if the Austrians could prevent an Italian manufacturer’s dominance. #44 replied:
– Hopefully, and that is the goal. Nevertheless, it will be difficult because Ducati has taken another small step forward this year. The 2024 bike seems to work very well, and it won’t only be a problem for KTM. It will be for all other constructors, but we are in it.
