The Repsol Honda rider arrived at the Indian MotoꦫGP but was coy about his big 2024 decision, of whether to stay o🔯r leave the Japanese manufacturer who he has become synonymous with.

Marquez reportedly has the option of Gresini Ducati on the table, while KTM ar🌊e floating around in the background for 2025, but Honda want♊ to keep him for the final year of his big-money contract.

“My ideas are the same as one month ago… No news at the moment,” he sai𒅌d in India.

DAZN’s theorised: “I don't see that we have any news about⛎ Marquez's futඣure in India! 

“I rathe🦩r see it being in Jaღpan where the parties tell us they are separating!

“And if that's not the case, and Marc stays, it may just be becꦬause legally he has no option. 

“Because I think he hasn't beli꧑eved in the Honda project for days!”

Honda have pr🙈eviously insisted that they will not keep any rider against their will.

But, having shown Marquez their 2024 prototype at the Misano test, their plans are ▨underway for next season, the last of their star rider’s current contract after which he will become a free agent.

Gresini, alongside his brother, were heavily touted as his shock des♍tination.

But Honda have also reportedly made moves to recruit Europe-based engineers to appease Mar💮queꦐz’s demands to stay.

Next we🦩ek in Japan - the home race for Honda - coulꦕd be the location for his crunch decision.
