Marquez will leave Repsol Honda for Gresini Ducati in the 2024 MotoGP season, leaving behind t🃏eam manager Puig.

But, at the Qatar MotoGP, the outgoing Marquez has delivered a 🎐blunt reminder of hi⛎s boss’ importance to the rejuvenation of Honda.

“For me,𒊎 and I have said it many times, and I continue to say it, I know thaಌt there are people who criticise Alberto,” Marquez told . 

“But normally people who are hones🔯t have few frꦉiends. 

“Alberto has always shown me he is honest.

“If he has a thought, he can listen to you, but then he has his own thought and reasons it to you.&nꦐbsp;

“I think that Alberto is fundamental൲ w💫ithin the Honda project. 

“There are many times in which a team ☂manager cannot decide everything and, no matter how much you want to do some things, there is a group, there is a 'sꦅtaff' that decides things together. 

“But, for me, Alberto has verꦫy good ideas for the future for Honda.&nb💦sp;

“I think it would be a mistake for him to come out of this upset, because he has always been very clear and has had a project in mind.&nbs⛎p;

“Some things have been done and other things 🐲have not, but I have always liked hi♊s ideas.”

Hond🐓a, who have under-performed for two years now, face the daunting prospect of a 🐻season without Marquez next year.

T✅hey are set to appoint Luca Marini as his replacement, alongside Joan Mir.

The Japanese manufacturer is also intent on making behind-the-scenes changes in their garage, to revamp their technical d🎶evelopment.

And they could receive concessions next year.ജ Marquez has backed the idea to help Honda get back on their feet.
