Why Marc Marquez won't fall out with Francesco Bagnaia

Gold & Goose

Marc Marquez does not believe that he and Francesco Bagnaia will fall out in 2025.

There are expectations ahead of the 2025 MotoGP season that there will be bad blood in the factory Ducati Team.

The reasoning behind this is that Ducati has created its self-named 'Dream Team' of Marc Marquez and Francesco Bagnaia. The two riders have 11 World Championships between them and both desperately want to claim the 2025 title.

However, Marquez has recently stated that he does not believe that he and Bagnaia will fall out. The Spaniard believes that Bagnaia is a 'gentleman' off the track but a 'warrior' on the track.

"If you put two roosters in the same pen at 22 or 25 years old, [it’s] bad," he said on El Hormiguero.

"It's a bomb. But I think he's 27 and I'm 32. Apart from that, Pecco is a gentleman, he's calm. We've worked together during the pre-season, and we've shared many conversations to get the best possible bike.

"But we both know that, from the first race to the last, each one will look out for their own interests on the track. But then, off the track... I know how to differentiate.

"When I was 20, I didn't know how to differentiate that. It was a matter of life or death. When I was 20, it was like now, but a little worse. But in this way, there is unity within the team.

"Pecco is a gentleman, he never raises his voice or anything. But then, on the track, he is the biggest warrior. If he has to put his bike on you, as he has to, he will put it on you. But that's how he is."
