“Wages” and “paperwork” justification offered to overlook Marc Marquez
“Why try to pay his wages if someone else is?"

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez should not be moved into the factory Ducati team for financial reasons, it has been sugg🦩ested.
Gresini’s Marquez and Pramac’s Jorge Martin arrive to this weekend’s Catalunya MotoGP hoping to conꦓvince Ducati to promote them into their official 2025 team.
Enea Bastianini, the man currently in red whose bik꧂e Marquez and Martin drea✅m of, is still in the mix to retain his spot.
Although the prospect of six-time MotoGP champion Marquez in the official🌃 Ducati team may be alluringꦍ, there are complications.
“I’ve been th𒉰inking about it,” broadcaster Simon Crafar said from ins🦋ide the Barcelona paddock.
“I’d leave Marc where he is, because of Red Bull.
“Leave Marc𝓡 where he is. He’s happy with his brother. He’s got sponsors paying his wages.
“Why try to pay his wages if someone else is?
“I would give him the bike to keep him happy. And takﷺe Enea or Jorge on.
"Imagine the p🐼aperwork to take Marc from Red Bull to Monster.
“He’s ಞwith his brother, all is going well, and 𒉰someone else is paying his wages.”
Marquez’s personal sponsors do reportedly represent💖 a hurdle, if he is to switch Gresini for the official Ducati squad.
Red Bull, one of his major personal sp꧅onsors, clash with Ducat🦂i sponsors Monster.
Marquez’s other alliances with Samsung, Al🌺lianz and Oakley could also be problematic because they are in contrast to companies🌳 that work with Ducati.
At ༒Gresini, he has been able to transfer his personal sponsors across from Repsol Honda.
Instead, Pramac’s Mart🔴in should be finally promoted 🔜into wearing red.
He has been overlooked in🐲 each of the past two years, with Bastianini🐭 prevailing twice.
“Jorge, I think, has done enough,” Crafar said about the rider who tops the MotoGP s🎶tandings after five rounds.
“I am an Enea fan but he has had terrible luck.
“Jorge has done enough and it would be sad if th💝ey didജn’t give it to him.”
Bastianini won the second-most amount of races in 2022 w🐭ith Gresini, to win a place 🌊alongside Francesco Bagnaia.
But his debut season was wrecked by injury and although🐬 he has shown reminders of his talent this yea🌟r, it comes amid the backdrop of Marquez’s availability and Martin’s red-hot form.
“If it doesn’t happen, it will be a travesty,” Crafar 💞said about Bastianini’s hopes of a third season with the official t📖eam.
“Because Enea is a fanta🅘sti🌱c rider who has had such bad luck since he got on that machine.
“Injured at Portimao, last year was a write off.
“Now he’s coming🐼 back. He hasn’t had the results that he needs to keep that job.
“He is riding good ൩enough. He needs to put it all together - from qualifying, put himself in the position, don’t make a mistake, put it ꦛon the box, and do it regularly.”
