Livio Suppo is clear: "Ducati must not let Pecco see that he's in love with Marquez"
The former Ducati and Honda boss on Marquez and Bagnaia's coexistence: a basic balance is needed, but Marc will not dominate. First and second place written

Marc Marquez
Bologna, December 1, 2024 – Livio suppo He has won many world championships and managed many fast drivers in the same team. Ducati will have to find an internal balance between two drivers who will be companions but also opponents, both with the desire to win the world title. The dream team composed of Pecco bagnaia and Marc Marquez might leave crumbs to rivals, but will it be able to coexist? Livio's recipe suppo, who won with Marquez from 2013 to 2017 in Honda, is clear: Bagnaia must not be made to perceive Ducati's love for the Spaniard.
Suppo: “Marc won’t dominate, Ducati will”
Secondo suppo there will be no doubts about the bike that will win the world championship, but the internal duel within Ducati will not be a foregone conclusion. It is unlikely that another manufacturer, including Aprilia, will have Jorge Martin, can overturn the hierarchies in just one year, so everything will depend on the balance that Borgo Panigale will be able to create with two cocks in the henhouse. The thought of suppo to Gpone: “I don't think Marquez will dominate the championship like he did in 2014 by winning the first ten races – his words – He and Pecco are two very strong riders and everything will depend on the balance they will be able to achieve. Marc is very charismatic and Pecco must not perceive Ducati's infatuation with Marquez”. What seems certain, after the great performances with the Gp23, is that Marquez will officially return to fight for the title. He will have the best bike, in the official team and with all the updates from his teammate. The best situation to go hunting for the ninth world championship of his career: “Marquez will certainly be a protagonist, he has already made the difference this season with the old bike, but he will not dominate the championship. There are riders like Pecco who remain very fast and then this year he won eleven races”. Ducati should not have great dangers in the race for the title, with two riders like that and an evident technical superiority, but with two less bikes and some talented riders gone elsewhere something different could be seen: “It will be a great championship for the fans – still suppo – Ducati will have six bikes instead of eight and two strong riders like Bezzecchi and Martin will be in Aprilia, I think some cards will be reshuffled. Maybe the other manufacturers can challenge for the podium”. suppo, instead, there will be no doubts about the first two positions. It is difficult for Ducati to lose the championship and probably one between Pecco and Marc will win it. The former Honda manager's comment: "Certainly on paper the first two positions seem written. The official team can dominate the season". First verdicts in February with the tests in Sepang and those in Thailand, which will also be the first race of the season from February 28 to March 2.
