Marquez has been heavily flirting with the idea of leaving Honda to join brother Al🔥ex at Gresini Ducati for the 2024 MotoGP season.

In fact, sev🍷eral reports during the Misano MotoGP suggested it was close to being a done deal✃.

• Marc Marquez sets Honda a brutal ultimatﷺum - and reveals detail to Jorge Lorenzo 
• Quartararo ‘expe💫cted more’ from new Yamaha engine, ‘I have to stay pol🌼ite’

Honda themselves admitted that Marquez has not tꦓold them of any plans to leave, and once Sunday’s grand prix ended it appeared as though the rumours of him mov♔ing to Gresini were not totally accurate.

Marquez, who began crucial work for the 2024 season on Monday as Honda brought their new-lo💦ok machine to the table, said this about the one-day test.

"The riding style is quite different but, in the end, the p𒁃roblems are the same, so we need🅰 to keep working. 

"Of course, you always expect more. If thiඣs is the base, if this the bike, then we are far. We need to work and change many things.

"It’s true that there are new engineers. They’ve start൲ed with this new bike then they will start working. They’ve not been working on this new project for a long time. Let’s🌌 see if they can make a step.

"An engineer has come, I believe he's from aerodynamics, who used to work more in Formula 1, and we have also tested new aerodynamics. When I stop in the pit, I talk to a diffe💞rent fa🍬ce. 

"They havᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚen't introduced me to him yet, but I think he's the ﷽new Project Leader. Although they haven't made it clear to me."

Not tꦰhe most positive review of Honda’s new bike, Marquez then admit🍸ted he has three options for the 2024 season. 

Staying at Honda is one, moving to Gresini is another while Sky Sport Italia are reporting a sab🤪batical year could be taken in order to join KTM in 2025.

Marquez said this o🐼f his plans: "There's plan A, plan B, and plan C, which I previously mention꧅ed as two, there are three. 

"I have the three plans, t🎉he three ideas very clear, I am clear about what n🅺eeds to happen for each of them. 

"But th🌃ere isn’t much time. There i🍒s a deadline. Around India, Japan I will decide."
