Marquez has been heavily flirting with the idea of leaving Honda to join brother Alex at Gresini Ducati f🦹or the 2024 MotoGP season.

In fact, ♒several reports during the Misano MotoGP suggested it🃏 was close to being a done deal.

• Marc Marquez sets Honda a bru🌼tal ultimatum - and reve๊als detail to Jorge Lorenzo 
• Quartararo ‘expected more’ from new Yamaha en🅰gine, ‘I have to stay pol💮ite’

Honda themselves admitted that Marquez has not told them of any plans to leave, and once Sunday’s grand prix ended it appeared as though the 🍰rumours of him moving to Gresini were not totally ac♓curate.

Marquez, who began crucial work for the 2024 season on Mondaဣy as Honda brought their new-look machine to the table, said this about the one-day test.

"The riding style is quite different but, in the end, the problems are t🀅he same, so we need to keep working. 

"Of course, you always expect🐼 more. ๊If this is the base, if this the bike, then we are far. We need to work and change many things.

"It’s true tℱhat there are new engineers. They’ve started with this ne𝔉w bike then they will start working. They’ve not been working on this new project for a long time. Let’s see if they can make a step.

"An engineer has come, I believe he's from aerodynamics, who used to work more in Formula 1, and we have also tested new aerodynamics. When I stop in the 🤪pit, I talk to a different face. 

"They haven't introduced me to him yet, but🧜 I think he's the new Project Leader. Although they haven't made it cl💖ear to me."

Not the most positive review of Honda’s new bike, Marquez then admitted he has three options fo💟r the 2024 season. 

Staying at Honda is one, moving to Gresini is another while S𒆙ky Sport Italia are reporting a sabbatical year could be taken in order to join 𓄧KTM in 2025.

Marquez said this 🐻of his plans: "There's plan A, plan B, and plan C, which I previously mentioned as two, there ar🌼e three. 

💃"I have the three plans, the three ideas very clear, I am clear about what needs to happen for each of them. 

"But there isn’t much time. There is a deadline. Around India, Japan I wilꦚl decide."
