Marquez's benchmarks: 5 seismic moves by MotoGP icons ranked https://lnkd.in/e7Xuz33W MotoGP's 'aliens' era is more or less over, but one of those aliens remains - and for 2024 he cooked up exactly the kind of move that the premier class had been a little starved of. A proven superstar pushing his chips in on a gamble that not only can alter the entire competitive landscape, but should do so, is always special. And when it comes to MotoGP, its modern era has been punctuated by those kinds of moves every half-decade or so. Marc Marquez swapping his Honda for a Gresini-run year-old Ducati is the latest example. For it to be the greatest, it has to surpass the five team switches below - a task ranging from a virtual given for the earlier entries to being almost mission impossible when it comes to the saga in the number one spot.

Each week brings in a piece of the MotoGP Mercato puzzle. Marc Marquez (currently Gresini Racing ) has been officially announced today to be Pecco Bagnaia’s team mate at Ducati Motor Holding Lenovo for 2025 and 2026 seasons. Enea Bastianini (currently Ducati Motor Holding Lenovo ) is said to move to KTM Bike Industries who are wanting to put 4 orange bikes on the track next season. The market moves and with it the intricacies of the sponsors contracts. Between personal sponsors, team sponsors, factory sponsors, there must be a piece of the cake for everyone but it is sure giving some extra work to get around! Who will be the next pilot to be officially announced for next season? #motogp #motogpmercato #motogpchampionship #mercato #sponsors #sponsoring #partnerships #moto #pilots #marquez #bagnaia

MotoGP™ sensation Jorge Martin points out the key area for Ducati Motor Holding’s 2024 model improvement: front locking. ❝I think we're struggling quite a lot comparing to the other brands in terms of front locking. I think we are used to it, but it's not easy to ride when the front is locked in every corner.❞ ❝I feel like this year my biggest step was in managing this front lock, but I think it’s the point where we have to improve and to make a much more stable bike in braking.❞ ❝Pecco did an amazing first part of the season. I did an amazing second part, I think,❞ Martin said. ❝We [finished the season] as the strongest, but we weren't at the beginning of the season, so that's why we arrived behind❞ ❝But I think that being a satellite team, what we are doing is amazing, and hopefully next season also we are going to start in this form and will arrive in a different situation at the end of the year.❞ ❝I don't know what more I can do to show my potential,❞ Martin said of his rumoured factory team chances in the closing stages of last year’s world championship. ❝I mean, making more than this is quite complicated: [Fighting for the MotoGP title] down to the last race, finishing second.❞ #MotoGP #JorgeMartin #Ducati2024 #MotorcycleRacing #PramacRacing #FrontLockingChallenge #RacingNews #469Motorsports

All the MotoGP liveries for British GP - and what they reference https://lnkd.in/eWVekhCq MotoGP teams have unveiled an array of 12 special liveries that will contest the series' throwback-themed British Grand Prix, celebrating the championship's 75-year anniversary. There are only 11 teams on the current MotoGP grid, but LCR runs split liveries due to one entry being backed by Castrol and another by Idemitsu - so has likewise prepared two different colour schemes for the Silverstone race. The key word there is 'race', singular, as - as is usually the practice in MotoGP versus other championships - bikes usually only run in special colour schemes on the final day of the race weekend, and this is again expected to be the case here. Here are the liveries in current championship order, and what the inspiration behind them is (...).

🇮🇹 In occasione del MotoGP di Barcellona, all’interno del paddock, abbiamo sfidato un nostro installatore francese, Gaëtan, a "Guess the operator - Indovina il motore". E tu quanti ne avresti indovinati? 🇬🇧 During the Catalan MotoGP, we challenged our French installer Gaëtan to "Guess the operator" inside the paddock. And how many would you have guessed? #deasystem #motogp #automation #gateautomation #gresiniracing #guesstheoperator #gateoperator 

Work hard, play hard. Definitely, having fun is key when striving for excellence. Moto2 is the middle category in the MotoGP™ circus. Same motor, little chassis variation, no electronics... The aftermath, all is on the Rider. Oldstyle. What I find extremely captivating is, how these youngsters are able to combine friendship with huge competitiveness levels... and obviously, grasping life with tons of fun! I'm talking here about Moto2 teammates Fermin Aldeguer and Alonso Lopez. You can find this in our more standard lifes too. I've seen hundreds of times how teammates in selling groups (often friends) fight for the same piece of market share; how they compare to each other WEEKLY in the selling-rankings; etc... Without any halo or famous reputation (immense respect for them), they are pushed to the same level of performance and stress... if there is fun in the equation, the thing is virtuous. Shout out to those of you who are "work hard, play hard" addicted!!! #personaldevelopment #coaching #sports #leadership
