“Wages” and “paperwork” justification offered to overlook Marc Marquez
“Why try to pay his wages if someone else is?"

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez should not be moved into the factory Ducati team for financial reasons, it has been sugᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚgested.
Gresini’s Marquez and Pramac’s Jorge Martin arrive to this weekend’s Catalಞunya MotoGP hoping to convince Ducati to promote them into their official 2025 team.
Enea Bastianin𝔍i, the man currently in red whose bike Maꦯrquez and Martin dream of, is still in the mix to retain his spot.
Although the prospect of six-time MotoGP champiꦚon Marqu𝓰ez in the official Ducati team may be alluring, there are complications.
“I’ve been thinking about 🎉it,” broadcaster Simon Crafar said from inside the Barcelona paddock.
“I’d leave Marc where he is, because of Red Bull.
“Leave Marc where he is. He’s happy with his broth🤡er. He’s got sponsors paying his wages.
“Why try to pay his wages if someone else is?
“I would give him the bike to keep him happy. And t🍌ake Enea or Jorge 💃on.
"I🍌magine the paperwork to take Marc from Red Bull to Monster.
“He’s with his brother, all ꦡis going well, and someone else is paying his wages.”
Marquez’s personal sponsors do re🍬portedly represent a hurdle, if he is to switch Gresini for the official Ducati squad.
Red Bull, one of his major per▨sonal sponsors, clash with Ducati sponsors Monster.
Marquez’s other alliances with Samsung, Allianz a𝄹nd Oakley could also be problematic because they are in contrast to companies that work with Ducati.
At Gresini, he h🎉as been able to transfe♒r his personal sponsors across from Repsol Honda.
Instead, Pramac’s Martin shoul🧸d be finally promoted into𝐆 wearing red.
He has been overlooked in each o🦄f the past two years, with Bastianini ✃prevailing twice.
“Jorge, I think, has done enough,” Crafar said about the rider who tops the MotoGP standings after five roundꦏs.
“I am an Enea fan but he has had terrible luck.
“Jorge has d🤪one enough and it would be sa🅺d if they didn’t give it to him.”
Bastianini won💙 the second-m✃ost amount of races in 2022 with Gresini, to win a place alongside Francesco Bagnaia.
But his debut season was wrecked by injury and although he has shown reminders of his talent this year, it comes amid the backdrไop of Marquez’s availability and Martin’s red-hot form.
🍨“If it doesn’t happ𒐪en, it will be a travesty,” Crafar said about Bastianini’s hopes of a third season with the official team.
“Be💧cause Enea is a fantastic rider who has had such bad luck since he got on that machine.
“Injured at Portimao, last year was a write off.
“Now he’s coming back. He hasn’t had the results th🔥at he needs to keep that job.
“He is riding good enough. H𓂃e needs to put it all together - from qualifying, pဣut himself in the position, don’t make a mistake, put it on the box, and do it regularly.”
