Ducati has chosen for 2023. But Jorge Martin hasn’t really digested it and might be thinking of ‘revenge’.
Ducati he has completed his party and has clear the building blocks for the next MotoGP season. Pecco Bagnaia ed Aeneas Bastianini will be in the official team, Johann Zarco e Jorge Martin continue in Pramac. Gresini Racing has Fabio Di Giannantonio and Alex Marquez, VR46 goes ahead with Luca Marini and Marco Bezzecchi. But that will be the case keep an eye out the young Spaniard of the first satellite team mentioned, namely Martin, who has not really digested the promotion by Bastianini in his place. And he might think of “revenge”…
Is Ducati shaking?
You don’t need to go very far to find confirmation of the state of mind of Jorge Martin. After the official announcement, the Spaniard has never forgotten about underline the thing in his statements, more or less covertly. The last rumorraised by Paddock-GPthey would then deliver us a pilot who, despite the contract until 2024, is definitely on course looking around. And one idea would be Yamaha, despite the M1 appearing clearly inferior to the Ducati racing cars. A choice of heart more than head, but the voices that accost are intensified Martin to Yamaha already for 2024. Truth, science fiction or some pepper pre-season? Let’s remember that Ducati has repeatedly stressed that both Bastianini and Martin are riders tied up directly to the brand. If you want, too interchangeable, as no specific team is mentioned for one or the other. But Lin Jarvis and the house of three tuning forks might still be a beauty temptation…
Martin ready to crash the party
Disappointmentsmoments to digest and whatnot have been several times great reasons. The extra push to achieve great results, to go beyond the limit. And if it were also the case of Jorge Martin? Davide Tardozzi He has feared him for some time, in fact he has already admitted that now the Spaniard can really do anything. There lack of promotion compared to Enea Bastianini is more than enough reason to declare war to Ducati and risk breaking the bank. The last one sample of the world with a private team it was well before the modern MotoGP, precisely in 1982 with the French postman Jean-Louis Tournadre. It would be a’golden opportunity for Jorge Martin: to prove to Ducati that it was wrong and at the same time write an incredible race history page of the two wheels. A 2023 season is expected rather incandescent at home: two Italians in the same team (the previous ones are not happy), a Spaniard ready to ruin plans, five other pilots in charge. Eight riders in the same brand maybe start to be too many?
