Andrea Dovizioso has already retired from MotoGP as a full-time rider, but only recently, in 2021 and 2022, he returned to racing at the highest level of motorcycling and, in his best years, he fought intense battles with Marc Márquez, which saw the Spaniard get the better of him on three different occasions.
Very attentive to current sporting events and movements in the category, he spoke about some of the changes in the rider market, quoted by GPOne, with precisely the #93 in his mind.
There, Desmodovi, as he was known for years, spoke about one aspect in which he sees his former rival having to work harder to get the best out of the Ducati: ‘It’s going to be very interesting. He’s going to be very fast and first he’s going to have to get used to braking, because that’s where he was strong with the Honda’.
Even so, Dovizioso believes that Márquez will be able to get used to it in no time, but he’ll be up against other rivals with similar equipment, trying to make life difficult for him: ‘I think he’ll adapt quickly, but the other Ducati riders are excited to beat him and make life difficult for him’.
Márquez has been world champion several times, with Dovi finishing runner-up in 2017, 2018 and 2019.
