The Pramac Racing rider is 13 points behind championship leader Francesco Bagnaia in a tooth-and-nail scrap for the 2023 MotoGP title.

Martin is in red-hot form, winning both races at the we🌸ekend’s Thailand MotoGP.

And his blisteringꦛ speed could earn him a promotion into Ducati’s top team, al💜ongside Bagnaia, next season, report.

The Spanis🀅h newspaper claimed they “can guarantee from the paddock of the Chang International Circuit that the doors of the official Ducati box are opening again to Jorge Martin”.

Fonsi Nieto, 🦹Martin’s technician, told AS 🧜when asked if he expected a move to the factory team: “I could give you many answers. It makes me sad and it makes me happy. 

“It makes me very sad on the one hand and I am 100 percent happy on the other, but if it is for that reason, because we are world champions, the team🌟 would🃏 be very happy to see that. And if he doesn't win, too. 

“Right now Jorge is a rider who dese𒐪rves any bike he wants from the ꦓpaddock. 

“Ri𓂃ght now I think he is the rider that the f🥀actories want the most.”

Pramac boss Gino Borsoi, asked if he expects to lose Mart🌞in, replied: “I don't know what will happen, but if it happens it will be because he deserves🍰 it.”

A💃 year ago, Martin was overlo✱oked for a promotion to the factory team in favour of Enea Bastianini.

Bastianini, with Greꦺsini in 2022, had won the second-most amount of races behi🧸nd champion Bagnaia.

But Bastianini’s debut year as a factory rider has be꧟en savaged by injury, the first of which was suffered on the opening weekend.

Bastianini may have initially signed for two years but Ducati reportedly want to strengthen their factory team while Martin is showing the best form of his hi🌃🌟s career.

T🐻he MotoGP season has three rounds remaining, starting in Malaysia in two weeks.

Although Ducati’s 2024 MotoGP rider line-up appeared guaranteed - includi♑ng the addition of Marc Marquez on a year-old machine for Gresini - it seems there may still be time for one major shake-up.
