Marc Marquez feels the pressure he faces at Gresini is not any less than at Honda, as the satellite Ducati team has the same ambition as its bigger MotoGP rival.
After an 11-year stint at the Repsol Honda team that yielded six titles but no victories since 2021, Marquez moved to Gresini this year in order to get his hands on a more competitive Ducati bike. The Italian, family-run outfit is a world away from the more corporate Honda operation, creating a more convivial environment for Marquez to thrive on after a decade working for a factory.
