Ducati has officially confirmed that Marc Marquez will be Francesco Bagnaia’s factory team-mate in 2025.
The agreement returns the eight-time world champion to front-line title contention after splitting from Repsol Honda to ride a year-old Gresini Ducati this season.
Marquez had been in a duel with current Pramac Ducati title leader Jorge Martin for the coveted ride and, it was rumoured just days ago, was set to lose out to his younger countryman. Martin signed with the rival Italian factory at 5:30pm during Monday’s Mugello post-race test and, with Bagnaia’s current team-mate Enea Bastianini reported to be joining KTM via a Tech3 a seat, only the paperwork was left for a Marquez-Ducati deal.
