The Spaniard struggled to find his feet again with the manufacturer and lost large parts of the next three years through constant failures. At the end of 2023, Marquez cut ties with Honda and headed for Ducati Gresini satellite.

“The Human Resources Team. This was the hardest thing or the one that made me doubt more.

“It was a team and it is a team that works with friends. I worked with engineers that … I worked with them for 12 years in a row.

“This is something that creates a relationship, a bond, inexplicable, a friendship. A relationship you can’t create in a month, in two. As in 12 years.

Marc Marquez’s delicate message to Francesco Bagnaia with 2025 Ducati helmet

While making a story in Honda, it was the right time for Marquez to move on to a new adventure in Ducati. In 2025, this decision is already proven to be the correct one.

The Spaniard enjoyed a perfect start in red life with a dominant weekend at the Grand Prix of Thailand. The 32 -year -old was excellent as he taught the position of the pole and won the sprint and the main race.
