Marc Márquez and Francesco Bagnaia had their first day working together as teammates at Ducati factory squad this week.
Just days away from the official team presentation, the two riders from the Borgo Panigale manufacturer participated in a photoshoot to capture the usual promotional images.
This duo is one of the most anticipated pairings on the 2025 grid. Bagnaia narrowly missed out on the title last year, finishing just ten points behind champion Jorge Martín (Prima Pramac), and is now aiming to claim his third championship in the premier class.
However, while the Italian has been the apparent leader within Ducati’s factory team in recent years, this season he will face his strongest teammate yet: Márquez, an eight-time world champion (six in MotoGP), eager to return to championship-winning form after a title drought since 2019. Márquez comes into this season following a year where he secured third place as a Gresini rider.
