Marquez: I wouldn’t have won 2024 MotoGP title even with Ducati GP24

Marquez doesn’t think outdated machinery was the reason why he didn’t fight for the championship this year

Marc Marquez believes he wouldn’t have been able to win the 2024 MotoGP title even if he was riding Ducati’s all-conquering GP24. Marquez had to do with a year-old GP23 bike on his switch to Gresini at the beginning of this year, leaving him at a disadvantage to the factory Ducati and Pramac teams.

” Marquez made a gamble at the end of 2023 by terminating his lucrative Honda contract in favour of a move to the satellite Gresini team. It meant, among other things, having to adapt to a bike built to a completely different philosophy after 11 years of riding the Honda RC213V. This task was made harder by the fact that he suffered a career-altering arm injury at Jerez in 2020, which required four surgeries over the following years to fully heal from.
