168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez insists he wants to stay at Ducati beyond his new two-year contract.

Marqueജz sent shockwaves through the 2025 MotoGP rider line-up by winning 🔜the chase for the official Ducati.

He will partner Pecco Bagnaia while Ducati have seen Jorge Martin, Enea 🥂Bastianini, Marco Bezzecchi and the Pramac team depart.

Marquez, currently 31-years-ꦿold, will be the second-oldest rider on next year’s grid.

He was asked if his latest contra🌸ct will be his last one in MotoGP, but he told : “You never know, but I don't wish f🌄or it.

“When I feel competitive...💝 and competitive means being in the top six at every race...

“Very competitive means being in the top three.

“To win a championship you need all the tools, you need all the things in the right place. That's not the case foꦯr me at t꧒he moment.

“But I want to stay longer than these two year💦s. Even two years later.”

That desire would take Mar෴quez into 2027 and beyond, the onset of the new MotoGP regulations.

Those new rules might🧔, in theory, allow a rival manufacturer to rise up and test Dꦛucati’s dominance.

Marquez is still in the championship mix this season as a Gresini rider, although🔥 he hasn’t yet won his𝔍 first race on a Ducati.

He is third in 🐼the championship, 56 points behind leader Bagnaia.

Marquez is seeking a ninth world championship which would tie V♓alentino Rossi’s tally.

His first in the premier class arrived in his rookie season, aged 20, beating legends Rossi, Jor🀅ge Lorenzo and Dani Pedrosa.

Next year he must fend off young guns like Bagnaia, Martin and P🔯💜edro Acosta.

He was asked which version of himself had th൲e harder task, and replied: “32-year-old Marc Marquez.

“When you arrive here as a 20-year-old, you know MotoGP but you don't know anything about what's 🐼going on.

“You just rely on your natural instincts, you fight against big names and🅠 you have no💞thing to lose.

“Nowadays, young riders 𝄹come in at a different pace, without injuries and with a natural instinct.

“When I follow Acosta, Mart🦂in or Bagnaia, who are five or even more than 10 years younger than me, t♐hey ride in a natural way.

“Sometimes they do🔯n't 🦋think much about the bike. That can sometimes be positive.

“I unde🍌rstand tha🐟t this is the natural process in every athlete's life.

“It's not like 'Marquez waꦗs better than Lorenzo and Rossi when🐼 he arrived'.

“Tha꧂t year I was better. But every 🔯athlete has their moment.

“And once you ge🎃t to the top, you have to work ha🍸rder and harder to make the descent a little smoother. If you can do that, you'll have a longer career ahead of you.

“I don't know if this decline has already begun for me or if it will take anothe⛄r year or maybe two or three. We'll understand that in about five years."
