Zambenedetti said: "Alvaro is for sure our first choice, we have won a lot with him, and we are givi🌌ng him the maximum ཧsupport that we can. 

"We haven’t stopped working on any area of the bike, it is a continuous improvement, but the most important thing is the dynamics of the bike, and we are working together to t🍌ry and give him our best. 

"For sure oth🔯ers are most competitive this year, making it more difficult but we wil🧸l try until the end.” 

Bautista's future is directly linked to the likes of Danilo Petrucci and Andrea Iannone, bo🅠th of whom want 🍒a full factory bike next season.

Iannone has in particular made it clea꧒r tha💜t joining a factory team is his aim.

A hot topic again🥂 in the Czeꩲch Republic, Iannone's Team Manager at GoEleven Ducati, Denis Sacchetti said: “What I can say is that we are talking with him about our future. 

"Every rider wants to go in a factory team, and I think that is noౠrmal and that Andrea deserves an opportunity in a factory team but that is not by us but by Ducati and Bautista because I think until Bautista makes a decision we have to wait. 

"Maybe he can stay with us, maybe not, we will s🐼ee. T🧸here is an agreement with him about many things that I don’t want to speak about. 

"It is n♊ormal that he would like to ride a factory bike.”
