Alex Marquez Ready for Big Moves with Marc at Gresini Ducati

In a surprising MotoGP twist, Marc Marquez has decided to join the Gresini Ducati team a year earlier than expected.

This reunites the Marquez brothers, offering Alex a great opportunity to leverage his brother’s experience and enhance the team’s performance.

The brothers teamed up at Honda during the 2020 Spanish Grand Prix, but Marc’s injury cut their partnership short. Now, as they get ready for the 2024 season, Alex is eager to make the most of this special opportunity.

Expressing his optimism, Alex says, “I need to take advantage of that. I have a great opportunity to grow as a rider.” With eight-time world champion Marc Marquez alongside him, Alex believes their teamwork will lift the entire team’s performance.

Marc Marquez had a solid debut on the GP23 Ducati at the Valencia test, despite needing surgery for an arm issue. His performance showcased the competitiveness of the team.

Reflecting on the recent test, Alex notes the significant step-up from the GP22 to the GP23 Ducati. He mentions challenges like tricky wind conditions but remains positive, emphasizing his commitment to adapting his riding style to the GP23.

“Yeah, it’s a step up from our bike,” Alex remarks, highlighting the shift in power delivery. “I still need to adjust my riding style because power delivery is a bit different.” Despite these changes, he sees potential benefits, especially with improved aerodynamics that enhance his front-end feel, offering an exciting prospect for the future.

As the Marquez brothers gear up for the 2024 MotoGP season, anticipation is high. Alex’s determination to leverage Marc’s presence shows his commitment to personal growth and the team’s success. With the dynamic duo back in action, the Gresini Ducati team is set for an exciting and competitive season.
