"Young riders" jibe aimed at Ducati from Pramac boss
The factory Ducati’s big decision to pick Gresini’s Marquez for their 2025 MotoGP rider line-up, instead of Pramac’s Jorge Martin or current incumbent Enea Bastianini, has dominated the past few rounds.
“The thinking behind it is that, honestly, we are happy to join the project,” Pramac team principal Paolo Campinoti told TNT Sports.“But they have a strong project. We believe that together we can bring Yamaha back to where they should stay.“They believe in the project of the young riders, which it seems Ducati does not believe anymore.The jibe about ‘young riders’ is a hint at Ducati’s decision to pick Marquez who, at 32 next year, will be the second-oldest rider on the grid.
Pramac currently have the MotoGP championship leader in Martin, who is 15 points ahead of Pecco Bagnaia after the sprint race at Assen on Saturday.
