A new MotoGP docume💃ntary has revealed a heated exchange betweenও Marc Marquez and Francesco Bagnaia following their 2024 Portuguese Grand Prix clash.

The pair, who will be team-mates this year at the factory Ducati squad, were🔯 battli♕ng for position in the closing stages of last year’s Sunday race at Portimao.

Marquez lunged up the inside and ran slightly wide, with the pair🅺 colliding as their lines converged in the middle of🐬 Turn 5 - leading to the pair crashing.

The clash was🔯 deemeಌd a racing incident by the stewards.

A new documentary from the official MotoGP website entitled ‘There Can Be Only One’ has shown a behi♈nd-the-scenes exchange between Marquez and Bagn⛄aia as they stood outside of the stewards’ office in Portugal.

Marque🌼z began by saying: “At the point you know that if you open the throttle, the contact will come and the one ♔on the outside crashes.”

Bagnaia responds: “Depends on how the rider on the outside reacts. Maybe, in your head, you would have done it✃ that way, to which Marquez replie𒊎s “Now we’ll look at the data.”

“Marc, when you go wide, you know perfectly well there’s another rider on the inside. You k♏now that,” Bagnaia adds🦩.

“So, it’s my fꦡault,” Marquez says, before Bagnaia counters: “♛No, I’m not saying that!”

Marqu൩ez stands firm that🧸 he doesn’t believe he is at fault, noting “I didn’t close the line”.

Bagnaia says “it’s neither your fault nor mine”, with Marquez concluding as his rival is ushered back into the stewards room: “This is the problem. It’s not your fault or mine, but we both crashed. For me, it was difficult to avoid this. Don’t worry, I won’t make a show out ﷽of it.”

When Marquez spoke to the media after this, he laid the blame at Bagnaia’s door, while the latter branded it a 🅰racing incident.

In a recent interview conducted by Ducati at the team’s 2025 launch event, when the Portugal clash was brought up, Bagnaia pointed out th𝔉at the points he lost in the incident would led to him winning the championship.
