Agreed, but I also think Ducati chose the correct rider. Marc is a proven all-time great. Ducati are seeing his performance on a year-old bike, and they are impressed. No other rider on a '23 Ducati is competing for podium places.
To anyone doubting J. Martin at Aprilia I think you are missing. Yes, he won't going to win right away like when he is at Ducati. But his adaptation on the bike will be seamless because he has all the reference to look at. Especially a personal rider coach at home that could able to give him all the info. to unlock the capability of the Rs-GP in his pal Aleix. Most of all his natural riding style suited more the bike. He just needs to be one on it. A bit of time is what he needs.
Ducati will two of the four fastest* , and the two most successful, current MotoGP riders. I don’t think Ducati screwed up. * Pecco, Pedro, Jorge and Marc.
Is this the Neil Morrison, the commentator in Moto2 on the Global feed? Very recognizable, pleasant voice. Not really a question. Instantly recognised his voice. I had to go back to the beginning to check his name. Have never seen his face before. :')
Pramac going to Yamaha is a real possibility for 2025 and MM93 got the wind on Friday in Mugello and therefore firmly stated he will not go to Pramac. And everything just started from there.
@@ianjohnson1207 i am sure he knoes what he is doing but cutting off one of the possible seat for next year in public is not wise unless he already have a secured contract. So my guess its because he knew something about the yamaha pramac deal therefore he can say for sure he will not go there. Anyways, its just my 2 cents
Frankly, I don’t care that Martin has left.. Bagnaia is a better rider, and Marquez is far better for corporate Ducati, who does sell motorcycles with a fair bit of profit.. Martin has demonstrated himself to be an entitled, self centered - if talented - brat. Exactly who is surprised at the outcome ?
The Ape can corner very fast. And so can JM89, a very dangerous combo. It’s been done in the past when Ducati would decimate all bikes in the straights and even the Hondas and Yamahas could still beat them in braking and cornering. It’s all in the pilot, not always the bike. JM should be trouble to all once he makes his Aprilia adaptation!
Ducati has shown their low character, short sighted management & terrible disrespect for the riders in their brand & satellite teams. Best of luck to Martin. Rookie of the year, runner up last year & leading this year after 7 rounds. Ducati has shown their are trash. Never buy Ducati.
very excited to see Marc on that GP25! I'm sure Gigi is too!! couldn't be happier for Marc, yes I felt bad for Martin for sure, but it wasn't meant to be, someone's comments i saw on X. Perfectly said. "From a near career ending injury and a horrendous time on the Honda, to finding his spark again and securing the best bike" spot on imo. Hey lets all hope KTM and Aprilia will be fighting next year for the title too, as a long time fan of GP this is good imo. Im a big 93 fan and i also ride a Ducati so ... :P cheers guys always look forward to your pods. Roll on Assen
Now he is out the picture for factory ride Martin will attack Pecco with more risk and marquez wil reep the victory and become world champion this year
Maverick must be thinking of retiring in 3-4 years time and wants to bank some cash, otherwise it makes absolutely no sense to leave Aprilia for Honda.
An interesting angle Simon Crafar pointed out, is if they let Marquez go, they could have cost their major sponsors the chance of a cash grab for them to have their brand and name attached to Marc. So it wasn't all Ducati's decision.
Indeed, it's clear that he will be more concerned about having Marc as a teammate than Jorge. Marc has never been beaten over a season by any teammate. Most have not even come close. I honestly don't expect that to change next year.
What if he moves straight to MotoGP. As what Simon Crafar said, someone out there is looking at him as an option. That would be so cool if it happens. 🤔
@@dayleashleynolasco5765 that would be really silly, moving from directly from Moto3 to MotoGP usually never works. Yes hes clearly more talented than the recent examples, Binder and Miller, who both really struggled. But as I said, I dont think its a good idea, hell Pedro didnt do it and I dont think Alonso is quite on the same level as Acosta and again, Alonso is a short king, moving him straight to a big bike, really dont think that gonna work
@@bernardoberner4 D. Binder's move was due to his contract with RNF, not about his talent compare to David Alonso who is a complete rider. You do know their Moto2 team got dissolved despite having an existing contract to ride with them in Moto2. So the solution of the boss R. Razali that time just to keep him & his valuable Green Power sponsorship was to put him in their only team in MotoGp alongside Dovi who brought WithU. David Alonso's case is different. He is talented enough to leapfrog to MotoGP. If J. Miller who hasn't the same potential as him when he was in Moto3 managed to do that & stay for 10 season in MotoGp similar to the other good riders of the sport. It shows all alone that it could work. What more on David.
My 24 grid: Ducati: Bagnaia, M.Marquez VR46: Bezecchi, Aldeguer Gresini: A.Marquez, Oliveira KTM: Binder, Acosta GasGas/KTM 2.0: Bastianini, Diggi Yamaha: Quartararo, Rins Pramac: Morbidelli, Mir Aprilia: Martin, Viñales Trackhouse: Roberts, Fernandez Honda: Marini, Zarco LCR: Ogura, Miller *Edit: If Rins does end up retiring then maybe Mir will end up at Yamaha and Garcia could go to Pramac. If he keeps up his performances he should definetely be on the grid next year
Ducati don't think so. They think he will help them sell a lot of motorcycles. From a purely commercial POV they have made absolutely the right decision. I think they have in terms of performance too.
I think Ducati made a massive mistake. Marc is so crash prone and is just one crash away from a career ending injury due to his eye problem. Also, Marc and Pecco in the same team is going to be drama. Marc is not a team player, he thinks he rules the roost wherever he goes. I hope Jorge does well at Aprilia and makes Ducati regret their decision.
Crash prone because he was pushing that honda to the absolute limit. Actually most of marc's crashes dont happen in the main race. In fact, Pecco has more DNF's so far this season. The one crash away from a career ending injury is the same for every rider. This is a dangerous sport. It speaks a lot of the progress in safety that a career ending injury hasnt been the case in a long time.
I think you are totaly right. Marcrash is a crybaby and bully on and off track together with his pathetic daddy ducati wil find out they made a mistake.
Martin did the honorable thing. Wish nothing but the best for him at Noale.
Agreed, but I also think Ducati chose the correct rider. Marc is a proven all-time great. Ducati are seeing his performance on a year-old bike, and they are impressed. No other rider on a '23 Ducati is competing for podium places.
Will Ducati give Martin a sub par bike for the rest of the season to deny him any chance of taking the number 1 plate to Aprilia?
Love your work guys 💯all the best Micky G

Erm - Ducati only cares about their shareholders... Not you, the press or how they could milk it for content or attention.

Yip - can’t forget the voice!
Martín thought he had the best hand and pressured Ducati. He could have been champion with Pramac.
Unlikely.
Pramac going to Yamaha is a real possibility for 2025 and MM93 got the wind on Friday in Mugello and therefore firmly stated he will not go to Pramac. And everything just started from there.
Marquez knew exactly what he was doing refusing to ride for Pramac, certainly nothing to do with Yamaha

He had nothing to lose, he knew Ducati wanted him on a 2025 bike, it was a calculated risk, and it paid off for him

It's already up there on top speed.

The worst thing Martin did to KTM, but you probably don't know about that, that's why you talk like this.

Alex Rins is starting to come alive! Hope nothing but the best for Yamaha. 😊

Agree
Really appreciate the high quality content ‼️💪‼️
I think these guys are all wrong. Ducati was blindsided by Martin's decision & took the obvious choice after the fact.
It would be a real shame if Rins retires any time soon, I feel we have yet to see his true potential unleashed.
Love to be a fly on the wall in Pecco’s house 😉
Indeed, it's clear that he will be more concerned about having Marc as a teammate than Jorge. Marc has never been beaten over a season by any teammate. Most have not even come close. I honestly don't expect that to change next year.
Will be interesting to see how Alonso does when he moves to Moto2, given hes really really short, 1.62m, have a feeling hell be the new Dani Pedrosa
What if he moves straight to MotoGP. As what Simon Crafar said, someone out there is looking at him as an option. That would be so cool if it happens. 🤔

Gresini: A.Marquez, Oliveira
KTM: Binder, Acosta
GasGas/KTM 2.0: Bastianini, Diggi
Yamaha: Quartararo, Rins

*Edit: If Rins does end up retiring then maybe Mir will end up at Yamaha and Garcia could go to Pramac. If he keeps up his performances he should definetely be on the grid next year
Good line up👌🏻
My crystal balls are leading me to believe neither Marquez or Martin will win the title in 2025.
I think motogp should only be for world champions .Robert's first has to win that
Will the Marquez brand over shadow the Ducati brand. 2027 Ducati design for???
Ducati don't think so. They think he will help them sell a lot of motorcycles. From a purely commercial POV they have made absolutely the right decision. I think they have in terms of performance too.
Pramac can get Mir, Bezzechi, Viñales…. If they stay with Ducati
I dropped Morbido for Rins also in fantasy!!! Rins was 3rd fastest on Saturday P1. Then Morbido got 4th in the sprint. Wow.
Martin is so over rated they act like he already won this years championship.
bitta laugh yous have on the pods is brilliant😂
Thanks for the mention guys 🙏🏼
No sound
Erm, eh?
sounds fine for me...
It's an old RUclips bug that has never been fixed. Just exit out and reload
