Marc Marquez has shed light on why only a single engin💦eer foll🐻owed him from Honda to Gresini.

His switch from MotoGP juggernaut Repsol Honda to one of the paddock’s smaller teams will defiꦡne the next chapte🐲r of his esteemed career.

Javi Ortiz is the sole engineer to make t🐷he move alongside Marquez - even his long-time crew chie൲f Santi Hernandez remained at Honda.

A new documentary has revealed a much different team dynamic t𒊎hat Marquez is entering.

Nadia Padovani, Gresini team owner, told&n🌱bsp;: "My husband Fausto would be super happy about al🀅l this.

“Because although he, like us, did not imagine that a 🧸day like today could come, in which Marc would be part of our family, he would surely 𝓡be very proud and very happy."

Marqu🔥ez added: "For Nadia and her entire family it is very important that I am on their team, because Fausto flattered me a lot.”

Fausto Gresini, the team founder, died in 2021.

His wife, Nadia, is now in charge.

Michele Masini, Gresini sporting director, said: "I always think, every day, I t🌼ry to remember everything that (Fausto) has taught us, because I think he is the living part of this team."

Nadia 𒁏added: "We are a family at heart, we always try to be well.

“Psychologically we don't want to p༒ut more pressure on t🎃he riders , we are always available for anything.”

This goes some way into explaining why Marquez did not want to overwhelm his new, family team with the high-profile inner-circle which surrounded h🥃im since his glory days▨ at Honda.

"Nor does my influence within the box have to c♍hange that Gresini family,” Marquez insisted. “That is the reason why I have bꦬrought one of the members of my Repsol team to Gresini, but not the entire team.

“Because they have thꦆeir family, their ❀environment.

“By changing a rider you cannot destroy that family, I have to adap🔴t to it."

Marquez’s new crew chief will be Frankie Carchedi, who worked with Fabio d🉐i Giannantonio l💎ast season at Gresini.
