MotoGP Aragon 2024 – Regarding the Seat ‘Snatched’ by Marc Marquez, Ducati Boss Still Unhappy with Jorge Martin

Ahead of the 2024 Aragon MotoGP this week, Ducati Team Manager , Davide Tardozzi still feels uncomfortable when the fight for the factory seat between Marc Marquez and Jorge Martin is brought up .

The Aragon MotoGP series competition on August 30 – September 1, 2024 is still inseparable from the discussion of Marc Marquez to Ducati next season.

Yes, in MotoGP 2025, Marquez will be Francesco Bagnaia’s new teammate at Ducati Lenovo.

The two world champions will compete against each other and share the same paddock belonging to the Red Borgo Panigale.

Many are warning that a big clash might occur between them or perhaps give birth to a great duet and rivalry of the century.

However, there are still many who still imagine that it was not Marquez who was appointed to sit there. But Jorge Martin.

Jorge Martin had previously been strongly rumored to be filling the spot next to Bagnaia.

But somehow, the situation turned around.

Ducati seems to have betrayed Martin by giving the seat to Marquez, who in fact has won in terms of big names in the MotoGP scene.

When asked about this, Ducati Team Manager , Davide Tardozzi admitted that he was still feeling uneasy.

Tardozzi did not deny that Martin was indeed worthy of moving up to the main Ducati factory.

However, on the other hand, Ducati executives and superiors above Tardozzi had several considerations that ultimately made their fingers point more at Marquez.

“It’s clear that Martin deserves this seat, but we made the decision based on the data we collected,” Davide Tardozzi was quoted as saying by BolaSport.com from Speedweek.

“It was a very difficult decision for us after weeks of discussions.
In Mugello we had to make a choice,” he said.

“I’m sorry for Martin, he deserved this as much as Marc, but we have to make a decision,” said the Italian.

Tardozzi was then asked whether the opinions of the other two Ducati bosses , namely Ducati CEO Claudio Domenicalli and Ducati Corse General Manager Gigi Dall’Igna, also played a big role in influencing this final decision?

However, he preferred to remain silent.

“Everyone has their own opinion, but I’m not going to talk about it,” Tardozzi said.

Judging from the data, Marquez is clearly above Martin.

Titel Si Semut dari Cervera sudah meraih delapan gelar juara dunia. Sedangkan Martin, capaian terbaiknya adalah runner-up MotoGP 2023.

Meski begitu, dua pembalap itu adalah pembalap berbeda generasi. Marquez sekarang berusia 31 tahun, sedangkan Martin 26 tahun dan berpotensi jadi calon bintang besar.

Martin sendiri pada akhirnya bergerak cepat setelah menyadari bahwa dia tak lagi jadi opsi utama Ducati ketika mendengar nama Marc Marquez dipertimbangkan naik ke pabrikan.

Pembalap asal Spanyol itu memilih pindah ke Aprilia Racing. Di pabrikan Noale itu dia akan berduet dengan Marco Bezzecchi yang belakangan diumumkan jadi rider anyar mereka.
