Francesco Bagnaia admits being wary of Marc Marquez on “a competitive bike”
"The difference will be that Marc Marqu🌼ez will have🍰 a competitive motorcycle," Francesco Bagnaia says

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Francesco Bagnaia concedes that 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez joining Ducati will be the key “difference” t🥀o last season.
The headline switch ahead of the 2024 MotoGP season is undoubtedly Marquez swapping his misfiring H♕onda for a GP23 Ducati with Gresini.
He has played down whether he can immediately swoop for a seventh premier 🀅class championship but his rivals are in doubt.
“I see it as a normal year,” Bagnaia told about🅰 his🍒 title defence.
“The balꦚance will be the same. The difference will be that Marc will have a competitive 🐻motorcycle.
“It will take the place of the one before.
“It will be competitive from soon on, that's𝔉 n✱ormal.
"Many riders are competitive. The GP23 he will use is a winning bike, ꦰsurely better than the one he rode in 2023. We will see."
Bagnaia (and Enea Bastianini, Jorg🎃e Martin and Franco Morbidelli) will step onto a developed GP24.
"Last year's bike was almost perf⛎ect, but in some areas it was d꧑ifficult,” the champion said.
“I suffered some 𓄧Fridays. It improved in♌ some aspects that we asked for, because our styles are similar.
“I already saw som𓄧ething in Valencia. The improvement was good, but it was Valencia. No It was the best time; Malaysia will be better.”
Pramac’s Martin,𓆏 riding an identical machine, 👍is expected to return for the title which narrowly evaded him at the final round last year.
“I don't know, he's a strong rider, that's for sure, but it's too early to tell. W🍸e will see,” Bagnaia said about Martin’s return.
“It's hard to know. All Ducati are competitive.
“Others🎀 will improve, like KTM or Aprilia. It is difficult to predi🏅ct, we will see.”
Bagnaia edged Ya𝕴maha’s Fabio Quartararo (who was then t🅘he reigning champion) in 2022, then fended off Martin last year.
“It was a more complicat🎶ed situation with Martin, because he bec🅺ame stronger after Barcelona,” Bagnaia said.
“In 2022, we eꦗnded up in a difficult situation because it se﷽emed that we were forced to win and we did.”
Only Marquez and Valentino Rossi have won three MotoGP championships in consecutive seasons, a feat which Bagnaia can achi⛄ev✤e this year.
