Fabio Quartararo understands why Marc Marquez might go to Ducati - and labelled the move “fun”.
Marquez reportedly agreeing a switch to the Gresini satellite team has dominated talk in the paddock at the San Marino MotoGP this weekend.

But I can understand it.Asked if the move would be finalised, Quartararo said: “I don’t know. I’m not in Marc’s head. He’s the one to decide.”
Marquez and Quartararo’s current deals, with Honda and Yamaha respectively, conclude at the end of 2024.It would leave Quartararo in a unique position, as a high-profile rider on an underperforming bike, whose contract will be in its final year in 2024.
