Marquez and Bagnaia will no longer be in the same box
“Bagnaia has always been very friendly, his best quality is that he is always honest. What matters is that we had a great relationship as teammates.” Thus Marc Marquez ‘greeted’ Francesco Bagnaia in the clip made by the official MotoGP website on the occasion of the announcement that confirmed Pecco’s move from Ducati to Aprilia starting from 2027.
Francesco Bagnaia after always racing with Ducati in MotoGP – he has been in the official team since 2021 – winning two world titles in 2022 and 2023, from 2027 will form together with Marco Bezzecchi an all-Italian pair at Aprilia.
Marc Marquez and Bagnaia a few weeks ago in Misano shared the last World Ducati Week together. The video from the ‘Inside Ducati’ series published on Ducati’s official YouTube channel dedicated to WDW contains Marc Marquez’s heartfelt farewell to Francesco Bagnaia on the occasion of the ‘Legend Night’ on Saturday evening.
