Gigi Dall’Igna has been remi🍒nded that delaying his decision over Ducati’s 2025 ri🅺der duo could backfire.

Choosing Francesco Bagnaia’s teammate in red next season is a crucial ♎decision which the entire rider marketꦐ is waiting for.

Enea Bastianini’s contract expires a♔lthough he has shown good form this season, while Jorge Martin and Marc Marquez are also candidates.

“The three big names are Pedro Acosta - he’ll stay where he is, in KTM,” assessed Neil Hodg൲s🍬on on TNT Sports.

“But where’s Marc going?🍷 And where’s our championship leader 📖going?

“They are the two with question marks.

“There are loads of rumours but we don’t know where they wi🐷ll end up.

“Marc wants a factory bike, so does Martin.

“There is a factory ride available next to Bagnaia, tꦑhat’s the seat everybody wants. Wh🌊o will get it?

“The championship leaderဣ is Martin and he wants it - yoꦿu’d have to say, he’s the favourite.

“But does Gigi Dall’Igna wait? Bဣecause he can. He ho🐷lds all the cards.

“But, by waiting, you might 💖miss Marti🌳n because he might not want to wait too long.

“He’ll [might] get an opportunity to ride at Aprilia who have produced an incredible motorcycle thꦬat is capable of winning th🃏e championship.”

Sylvain Guintoli added: “It’s all kicking off ♎behind the scene👍s.

“The major players are si🌼gned - Bagnaia, Binder, Quartararo. I think it will fall into place quickly.

“It’s a given tha🦂t [KTM] will move Acosta quickly into the factory team.

“[Bastianini] has not done anythi✨ng wrong. Last season was ruiღned by injury which wasn’t his fault.

“[Ducati] might wait. There couldℱ be a block at the top because they are waiting for the Ducati facto🧸ry ride, for example, and things will go into the summer.”

Suzi Perry replied: “I’d sign Marc…”

Guintoli said: “But what if Marti൲n wins🌌 the championship and takes the #1 somewhere else?”
