Jorge Martín is certain that he will have a factory bike at his disposal next season. The Spanish rider, in statements at the press conference before the Le Mans GP, showed great confidence that he will always have a good alternative even if the official Ducati does not want to stay with him next year.
– I would understand. In the end, it’s Marc Márquez, eight-time world champion. In terms of marketing, he is a beast and I would understand that position, but it reassures me to know that I have all the brands waiting to see what happens with, in this case, someone close to me. So, whatever happens, I will not be without a bike and I will have a good option.
Martín also spoke about the possible options if Ducati chooses another rider besides him: ‘My idea is to have a winning bike or a winning project. Aprilia is a winning bike. KTM is a winning bike, Gas Gas is a winning bike and certainly Honda and Yamaha will be in a few years; there are many options.’
