Jorge Martin, Marc Marquez or Enea Bastianini - who will Ducati choose?

The Japanese brand has endured a difficult time since winning the championship with Quartararo in 2021, losing out to Francesco Bagnaia in 2022, before a very disappointing season in 2023 as it marked their first winless campaign since 2003.However, Yamaha more than doubled that offer by giving Quartararo a yearly salary of 12m for the next two seasons.

However, that appears unlikely and Martin, who is the current championship leader, will want to move in alongside Bagnaia at the factory Lenovo Ducati team. Bastianini has also been a very good team-mate to Bagnaia and so the familiarity of being in the factory team, experience and results he has is not something Ducati will take lightly when making a decision.

Marquez, like Bastianini, has been very strong so far this season and an argument could be made that only Martin and Bagnaia have demonstrated more consistent speed than the eight-time world champion.
