Marc Marquez And Pecco Bagnaia They will be teammates at Ducati in 2025. In the best brand. They will also have the best bike. The same. The same reddish machine that won the last world cups and he might just win this class too. They’re both champions…and they’ll both be fighting to be champions again next year.
And yes, two plus two equals four… but in the automotive world, that sum is sometimes equal to five. Because there is nothing scientific about bringing together what are perhaps the two best drivers in the category. Because what you think could go very well can be a huge problem when you put two roosters in the same henhouse.
Who knows what would happen if, in F1, for example, you put Verstappen Already hamilton in the same team. Or at Alonso and Hamilton, or Fernando himself and Max. It can turn out well or explode over time… and that’s something they don’t want to happen at Ducati.
“You shouldn’t become friends…”
They have already warned him several times, and now they are doing it again. It was Gigi da’ll Igna, the big boss of the brand, who, in “La Stampa”, recalled so much Marc like Pecco It doesn’t matter if they are friends. What they should do is work together.
“You shouldn’t make friends or go out to dinner in the evening, but in this Ducati system “We must behave properly to achieve our goals,” he said.
And he comes back to the reason, once again, why they chose Marc: “A team with a bike of our level needs two champions, and we already have them.”
“Now we need the capacity to manage these champions“Everyone has their own personality and wants to stand out,” explains Da’ll Igna.
