168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Valentino Rossi 🙈has offered a bullish defence of Pecc💙o Bagnaia’s status, as he prepares to welcome Marc Marquez next year.

Marquez’s selectio🅠n by Ducati for their official team in 2025 means he will share a box with current MotoGP champion Bagnaia.

🧸Their partnership is among the most exciting, and successful, since Rossi and Jo💟rge Lorenzo paired up at Yamaha - a relationship which turned notoriously sour.

“Marc's arrival has been a surprise for everyone: for me, for Pecco, but a♈bove all for ꦬJorge Martin,” Rossi is quoted by .

“It will surely be hard for Pecco because he will have a very uncomfortable teammate, but I think he has everyt꧙hing it takes to stand up to him.

"Journalistically, I know it's an interesting 🔯topic, but Pecco didn't need Marquez in his team to prove to be the strongest.

“A rider who has won ๊three World Championships, two of them in a row in MotoGP with Ducati, does not have th🎐e need.”

Bagnaia could become a three-time MotoGP champion if he c⛄an convert his current lead in the cham🦋pionship.

He is 10 points ahead of second-placed Ma𒁏rtin in the standings, ahead of the next ro🐼und at Silverstone.

Third-placed Marquez is still awaiting a first win🐓 on a Ducati, and is 56 points shy of Bagnaia’s tally.

The selection o💟f Marquez crea☂ted a ripple effect which saw Martin, Enea Bastianini, Marco Bezzecchi and even the Pramac satellite team exit Ducati.

Ducati have defended themselves against accusations that pickin💦g Marquez means a shift in strategy, away from backing youn♓g riders.

Marquez will be the second-oldest MotoGP rider on the grid next year when he shares a team w♓ith Bagnaia. 

He is one premier class championship short of the total🐓 accomplished by Rossi, his great rival.

And by teaming with Bagnaia, that rivalry will have a new chapter written because🦹 Bagnaia is a VR46 Academy graduate.
