Marc Márquez and his choice of team
Marc Márquez, the Catalan pilot, has seen how the choice of his new team has not been as simple as he expected. After signing for only one season with the Gresini Racing team, Márquez found himself in the situation of negotiating another contract for the next season. Despite being clear that he would have several options, the reality has not been as favorable as he expected. One of the options Márquez considered was a possible signing for the KTM team, but this option was indirectly blocked by Pedro Acosta.
The success of Marc Márquez this season
Despite the difficulties in his choice of team, Marc Márquez has had a brilliant start to the season in MotoGP. After adapting to the 2023 Ducati bike, Marquez has shown great consistency and has become one of the main contenders for the championship title. His work and sporting performance have been exceptional, and he has managed to become one of the most outstanding riders in the MotoGP World Championship.
Pedro Acosta and his impact on Márquez’s options
One of the reasons Marquez’s option to KTM was blocked was the team’s bet on Pedro Acosta. Acosta, a rider from Murcia, made his MotoGP debut this season with the GASGAS team and achieved great success. His spectacular performance and potential has led KTM to consider him as the main rider for the upcoming season. This decision left Márquez without the option of signing for KTM, and he had to look for other alternatives.
Marc Márquez’s final decision
Despite the difficulties and obstacles on his way, Marc Márquez has made the decision to sign for the Ducati Lenovo Team. After negotiating and fighting for this position, Márquez will be Pecco Bagnaia’s teammate from next season. Despite not being able to get the desired option at KTM, Marquez has found a new opportunity to continue competing at the highest level in MotoGP (https://materials.campus.uoc.edu/continguts/PID_00294231/index.html).
