Alberto Puig says he expe♑cts Marc Marquez to ride for Honda next season after receiving ‘no information’ abou🃏t the six-time MotoGP champion’s plans to leave for Ducati.

Becoming the worst kept secret in MotoGP, Marquez is said to be on the verge of joining his brother Alex at Gresiniꦡ Ducati f𝔉or the 2024 MotoGP campaign.

If that happens it woul𒀰d result in Marquez scrapping the final year of his deal with Repsol Honda, something we’ve already seen Alex Rins do in order to join Yamaha.

But when speaking to MotoGP.com during Friday practice, Repsol Honda Team Managerꦐ Puig was unconcerned by the speculation. 

"I can only give you the information that I know. As you said, he has a contract for 2024ꩵ.

"He💎 never came to us, informing us that he will not stay with us.

"I can only tell you that, for us, 🌜we will go wওith the contract that we have.

"This is what I can tell you bec꧟ause I haven’t had any communication from the rider or his manager."

Marquez also reiterated the fact he has a contract with Honda for 2024 on Th♔ursday, but the eight-time world champion did not want to confirm whether he would𒅌 honour that agreement.

Asked if alternate plans have been made in case Marquez leaves, Puig said: "No🐽t really. Because of what I said. If yo༺u have a rider under contract, there is no need to think of other riders.

"To🎃 advance a problem that is not there, is not a very🐽 smart thing to do.

"Normally yo♐u try to fix a problem when you have a problem.

"At this moment, as I told 🐬you, we don’t have this informa🐻tion."

Puig uttered similar words when discussing the future of Jorge Lorenzo in 2019, and on that occasion the five-time world champion left the Japanese man🦋ufacturer.

Puig finished by saying: "I have concern that we are not performing, and t𝄹hat our bike is not good. But I have no concern ♓because I have received no information."
