The four teammate pairings that could provide drama in MotoGP 2023

Repsol Honda
Two world champions, two Spaniards, two riders eager to get the better of one-another, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez and Joan Mir ꧟will go head-𓄧to-head as they attempt to bring Honda back into contention.
- Mar𒁏c Marquez:♎ ‘The risk I take will always be the same because it’s my mentality’
- Yamaha: 🌸Fa🥃bio Quartararo ‘one of those extraordinary MotoGP talents’
With just three wins from the last three seasons🦹, all of which came courtesy of Marquez, the most successful team in MotoGP has gone through a severe damp patch.
Mir, who arrives at Honda eager to replicate the form of 2020 which saw him win the title, will arguably have the toughe꧃st challenge on the entire grid, as Marquez has never been beaten by a team-mate over a full season.
In fact, Marquez has comfortably finished as the t�𒉰�op Honda rider despite missing races in both 2021 and 2022.
Also adding to the potential spice of this pairing, is the fact Marquez and Mir have had p൲lenty of run-ins during their time together in MotoGPꦍ.
Whilst competing for Suzuki, Mir voiced his frustration at Marquez's tactics from Free Practice and Qualifying sessions, as Marquez was seen using hiꦡs fellow Spaniard to gain a tow.

Mir and Marquez have only had positive things to say about each other sꦯince the former joined Repsol Honda, however, when on-track and potentially fighting for wins something tells us their rivalry will be renewed.
Red Bull KTM
What could end up being one of the tightest inter-team battles on the grid, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Brad Binder and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jack Miller are expected to compete for the right to finish as the top KTM rider, which in-turn could see them fight f𒉰or the title.
Yes, Ducati has the fastest bike on the grꦆid, but as Binder so often showed in race situations, the RC16 c♋an be fighting for wins if qualifying results go their way.
Bringing a raft of experience across from Ducati is Miller, who was previously in the KTM set-up in Moto3, while it’s also a reunion with former Pramac Team Manager, ꦆFrancesco Guidotti.
Miller and Binder have both won races in the last two seasons, and as they showed during ♏their battle in Assen, no rider wanted to give an inch to t⛦he other.

There has already been frustration between the pair when Miller accused Binder of ‘smashing into me’ during said battle at the Dutch Grand Prix. The Australian🌳 rider’s comments were made after an attempted overtake at the final chicane.
And with the right to be the fastest KTM rider on the line in 2023, fireworks could be aplenty betw🐬ee🅠n both riders.
Mooney VR46 Ducati
While 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marco Bezzecchi and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Luca Marini are very good friends, not to꧒ mention they are part of the VR46 Acade꧋my, a strong season from both riders could put them in contention to graduate into the Pramac Ducati team.
Bezzecchi already showed as a rookie that 🌜he can get the better of Marini, who himself began to emerge as a contender for podiums during the second 𓂃half of the year.
Impressi𓂃ng team owner Valentino Rossi is sure t🐠o be one of their main goals, and although the nine-time world champion won’t want to see a negative rivalry emerge, the opportunity to move up the ranks at Ducati should lead to both riders giving as good as they get.
Lenovo Ducati
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Francesco Bagnaia and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Enea Bastianini produced some of the best racing in 2022, and althou💃gh it was very clean for the most part, visible tension was there when team orders began to surface.

Sitting directly next to ౠBagnaia during press conferences, Bastianini repeatedly said he would go for race wins as opposed to moving out of the way should Bagnaia need it.
In fact, during the Malaysian MotoGP Bastianini was shown a message on his pit boar🃏d that asked him to relinquish the lead, however, the Italian chose not to do so.
To Bastianini’s defenc𒉰e, winning or finishing second was not going to be enough on that day for Bagnaia to win the title, so the Gresini Ducat🐻i rider was well in his right to fight for the win, which eventually went the way of Bagnaia.
Now in the factory team and with a clear opportunity to win the 2023 world championship, Bastianini is unlikely to play second fiddle to Bagnaia🎐.
Battling for race wins i𝐆s expectedℱ to be a regular occurrence for both riders, and thus, a similar championship fight to that of Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo in 2015 could be on the cards.
