Alex Marquez admits ꧃he is searching for a Plan𓆏 B amid Ducati’s huge rider decisions for next season.

The Gresini rider wants to stay put in his current team but, with a huge reshuffle plausible, he is working to guarantee his place in the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:2025 MotoGP rider line-up.

Alex’s brother Marc is at the centre of silly season but Alex himself has barely been mentionဣed, even though his Gresini contract expires this season.

“Normally✅ things go ꦇfrom the top guys,” Alex said about the rider market, referencing Ducati’s decision over their 2025 factory line-up.

“Everybody is waiting. Marc, Jorge, Enea…

“We need to wait. I speak with Na🌠dia and Gresini. I am calm withꦇ what they are saying to me.

“I am working on more options to have a 🌺Plan B because you never know what will happen with this situation.

“My preference is to continue with Gresini.”

Alex was asked about Ducati’s call, whether to replace En🐬ea Bastianini with M𒈔arc Marquez or Jorge Martin.

His warning was that whoever is overlooked could ཧhaunt Ducati riding a rival’s bike♔.

“My opinion is not fair,” he said.꧂ “I would take my bro⛦ther!

“It’s a difficult decision. I think Ducati need to be quite caཧlm be📖cause whatever decision they take will be a good one.

“It’s not like they are playing with t🍬heir future. This one, the other, the other… they are all good ones.

“The rider they will lose is a pro🃏blem for them. Because he will go to another manufacturer and will be fast.”

“Marc Marquez is more relaxed because he is fast"

The smile💫 that has returned to the face of his illustrious brother Marc is because he is a less-pressurised satellite team atmosphere, it was suggested to Alex.

But he replied: “The atmosp😼here on the team can be more relaxed but the ♏pressure is still there.

“Who wasn’t saying, at the😼 start, where Marc would be after the first race? This is pressure.

“He is more relaxed because he is fast.

“Y🙈ou can be in a satellite team but, if you are not fast, the smi🐠le will not come.

“He is really good at Gresini. His🌠 decision has wei👍ght because I have said to him that he is comfortable here.”

This weekend’s Catalunya MotoGP brings Alex back to familiar surroundings, but to a track where he is yet to excel in t🔴he premier class.

“I have been fast here in Moto3 and Moto2,” he said. “In MotoGP I have never had the best weeke🐷nd here.

“With Honda this was a track where we suffered wi💯th the grip.

“The set-up an♏d t🥃he setting [on the Ducati] has changed a lot [from last year].

“It’s a flow track with not a lot of braking points. You need to always have speed. It depends on the bike - if you have a bike which turns a lot, you will hav🐼e more grip.

“It is something that Aprilia have h🔥ere. They have good turning on the first corners. They🍨 have speed so don’t stress about the grip.

“We are good in corners where we use the front brake re🗹ally deep. If we flow more, we suffer more. We pick up, but a little too late.  Aprilia can turn the bike, are on a better line.”
