Gresini’s target for168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Marc Marquez’s first season is to be within the top five of the MotoGP championship, the team owner claims.
Marquez’s decision to ditch his below-p꧑🎃ar Honda and jump onto the bike which won (and finished second) in last year’s championship has whet the appetite for a thrilling season.

Ducati riders have already tipped the eight-time woꦡrld champion to fight for a ninth, which would tie Valentino Rossi’s total, but the ambition from within his new box is more humble (or, perhaps, more strategically managed…)
“With Marc the expectations are high, but we don't set ourselves the goal of winning the World Champ꧃ionship,” Nadia Padovani told .
“We want to be at𒀰 least among the top five in the rank🐎ings, yes.
"It's more the de🌠sire to start than the pressure, absolutely.
“Because we can't wait to get on track with these 🅺riders and see where we can get this year."
She reiterated her delight to have recruited Marquez: “It's a fantastic year. We've already won because we are an independent team that has brought in an eight-time world champion. We have 10 world titles ♐in the team.
“This is crazy, we never imagined we could achi🍒eve something so important in our career."
Team manager Michele Masini added: “Never before will we have all the ingr﷽edients to do 💦very well as in 2024.
🥀“But it's clear that everything remains to be written and I don't want to place any objectives, but only to think about progress an🌃d improve.”
The Marquez brothers will share a box🌳 for the first time since the ill-fated early months of ♍2020.
"It was a dream within our dream,” Masini said.
“There is an incredible energy. We have spent the las꧙t three days together and there is a nice atmo🥃sphere, with carefreeness and a unique desire.
“I think we can be proud of being able to live this mom♋ent together.
♚"♓Having Alex and Marc on the team is an added value.
“I think 𓄧we have the best possible technical package available but we still 🐻believe that the human part is fundamental.
“Who knows each other better than two brothers?
“I mean it will make things easier for us on the sporting side, but it will help us get to know th💦em quicker."
Padovani added🔯: “We are the only team with 10 worl🍒d titles inside the garage.
“It has n🐭ever happen🤪ed, it happened to us and this gives us a great boost.
“Marc is a very nice guy, he alwa🦂ys has a joke ready. I know Alex and I know how he is. He is brilliant and friendly. We got on very well with both of ꦦthem."
