Of course Martin not only deserves this Factory Ducati ride which he has earned but Marquez is a 6 time World Champ and brings to the table ALL that entails. Huge Fan base, experience, confidence, engineering feedback loop abilities, potential. The upside far outweighed to down side. The fans are gonna really enjoy watching the rivalry created between Ducati, Aprilla, Martin, Marc & Pecco.

Watching this I realize, this is for rich people the ban on ride heights is just so poor people can have hope to be skilled racers because if only the bike is developed, well whose interested in watching a bunch of prodigy’s from camps race on prototype machines never to be replicated by the general public. I’m sure now they feel the financial hit knowing bikes aren’t selling for 20k -30k for a motorcycle that can be destroyed so easily in everyday use

What a sad day for motogp when Marc retires…

don’t stop, keep up the fight marc😢

Stoner should stop to riddle. He left Ducati cause Rossi was available und he was pushed out of Honda cause Marc should get the bike. In 2012 Rookies were not allowed to enter a factory team. Therefore Bradl ended up at LCR. HRC and Ezpeleta used the whole season 2012 to get rid of this rule...Stoner was the last obstacle for Marquez. I hope Peco, Martin and Bastianini never forget the dirty games which brought Marquez to Ducati.

He is right ..

Of course he is right he's the man best rider I have ever seen live

THIS F/ING CLIMATE B/SHYT is DESTROYING ALL RACING and the AUTO INDUSTRY

These guys are world showcased warriors. To travel that much, and risk so much.... the opinions vary. Just hope they are safest as possible.

Stoner was one of the greatest, the last one of the golden era, an era whn the riders matter more than the bike. I was a big fan of Ducati, but they did Martin dirty and i will be cheering for Aprilia next year, because fuck marquez!

DOOHAN is CORRECT,

Marc Marquez is (arguably) the biggest brand in MotoGP to date

I agree, especially at the race competition level. We have let technology severely overstep its function. MootoGP is now a completely bib and diapers sport, I don't want to simplify and reduce the talent available today, but we are witnessing a dumbing down of skills and responsibility in riding (and driving too). Nowadays incredibly powerful bikes are so tamed down to a point, that even unexperienced riders are purchasing them and letting technology take over the understanding of how they're meant to be operated. I believe racing should keep its more traditional roots, and make riders have to properly and actually pilot these missiles. The removal of the need to properly understand how to command, accelerate, turn, use the clutch, brake and tame these beasts is disappearing in the shadow of traction control, winglets, etc etc. I can see why the general population can benefit from that technology. But the point is already coming where not even that is saving regular joe blow who can't get his head around what gears are, to a point where these high powered 2 wheeled rockets are being taken out of dealerships by the hand of someone who's not learned weight, speed, road safety, etc etc. The unforeseen result is showing too. The professional riders are more exposed to risk because despite bigger speeds and braking power, the body is simply getting taxed that much more. When accidents happen, they're more dangerous. And on the road, ignorants are picking up liter bikes to go to work without an inkling of an idea of how to operate a 200Kg moving piece of mass through a turn. Mick is right. And you can see by the riders. Literally a line up of Men well into their 30s, versus a line up of boys in their early 20s.

Sadly, I doubt we will ever see 2 strokes back in the top class. It is quite humerous that they show the Honda a lot when Honda were at the forefront of killing the smokers. Doohans comments are interesting, but from talking to several top riders, the 800s were perhaps more unpredictable than the 500's - not sure Mick ever swung a leg over the 800. I am glad they are removing the ride height devices, but wish they removed more of the aero. The comment about tyres is also interesting as the big problem is that the manufacturers do not want competition as having a one brand formula does not show up shortcomings between brands.

Electronics is why we won’t see superbike riders coming into GP. The only way to be competitive in GP is to come through GP3 and GP2. Superbikes are too raw to too to make a successful transition to GP in a single season.

It will be interesting in 2025 watching Marc and Lewis struggling to keep their teammates behind on same machinery

Amazing documentary about the legend, loved it! Have already watched this thrice and still get goosebumps!

Danny did all of the hard work on the Honda along comes Stoner From a Ducati that was so bad he couldn’t ride it any more ( Good luck with that Rossi ) and gets on a winning Honda and guess what Wins easily really same thing with Marc. Now the Honda is totally useless Marc wants the best bike on the Grid 🤔 Why Well he can just jump on it and win 🤣🤣 all the hard work has been done true Champions 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 i could go on 99 Lorenzo I WANT THE BEST OR IM TAKING MY BALL AND GOING HOME 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Most if not all Moto GP riders are pussies compared to the blokes who ride in TT style races.....

When I was 16 years old, I got the chance to ride a Suzuki RG500, what a mind blowing bike it was... Nothing compares to it except maybe the RZ 500..... Also got to ride a Yamaha IT490 around the same time.... You need balls as big as watermelons & be a little crazy to boot to throw a leg over those sort of machines..... Great bikes to watch in the hands of skilled rider's!!!!!.....

Recent moto gp seasons have been the best ever, no need to alter the rules too much.

Watch old 500 2 stroke races and you will see that most of the grid couldn't really ride them. The leaders would often lap half the field. However if you stuck modern suspension and tyres on a 500 modern gp riders would probably wonder what the fuss was about. Stick 90's tyres on a modern moto gp bike and the electronics wouldn't have a chance, modern bikes would be more dangerous than the 500's were.

😂 … lol , like the way Rossi adapted to the Ducati. No podium in 2 years. 😂

Yeah Marc’s cursed for helping another teams rider win a championship and its been all down hill from there. I hope Ducati and Marc crap the bed they’re both cursed now. He’s just a petulant douche…king douche

Marc goes to Ducati….Weak wanna prove your the best jump back on the Honda and WIn thats right you couldn’t. Rossi went to the M1 and Stoner won on The OG Ducati those are hero’s Marc just pathetic at this point.

NO AERO, NO ELECTRONICS...LETS SEE WHO THE BEST IS

He's the master class...

Mick Doohan is absolutely correct 💯

Big difference in power people. You didnt need traction control on 500cc 2 stroke 😅. None of them bikes were making 250hp 😬🙃

Just like in chess, they now discovering all possible moves cause of Artificial Intelligence resulting to mostly stalemate on games which makes it boring.

This channel is such garbage.

Meh, Moto3 are lapping faster than the 500s did, times have changed. Huge respect to Doohan, total legend, but the eras can’t be compared..

The 500's were very unforgiving, if you see the amount of times riders were flicked off in a split second and how those bikes were wheeling and leaving black lines on the track at the same time..... Make no mistake modern GP bikes are extremely fast, but what skills do you really need to ride them compared to the 500's.?. The 500's were raw beasts, the riders back then had the most skill and courage. Miss that Era, the best era in motorcycle racing.

Stoner is miniature hot head, always negative

bet Ducati breath a sigh of relief !🦇

They sledged Stoner because they are Rossi fans , but Stoner kicked his arse when he came in to Motogp , No one was beating Rossi until he came along and ended up winning the 800cc era by beating Rossi by a dozen races And Marquez beat Rossi in their head to heads by 56 to Rossi’s 10 .. it’s almost embarrassing for someone called the GOAT , but you can’t be the GOAT when you’ve been flogged by your two biggest competitors

He is a legend no words. In 2024 he is showing why he is legend all want to see motogp because of him

No one would argue that cultural conditions, market forces & improved technology have helped certain individuals to excel & be celebrated - but without doubt there’s always been exceptional, brave & talented individuals using unmatched abilities to push the boundaries in the field throughout history. Was Pedrosa better than Márquez? They competed together a few years ago with the SAME equipment & the results show Marc was quicker. In ‘07 Stoner showed his ability no question, but that Ducati was WAY faster Rossi’s Yamaha, or any other bike for that matter & who won the championship that year? Mr Stoner has already proved his own point 17yrs ago. Talent was everywhere but technology assured the trophy.

Ducati should just have called Marquez's bluff, he might think he's too important to go to Pramac, but if the factory Ducati seat was not available, where else would he go.? Having ridden the Ducati and being in a hurry to try and win another championship, what option would be better than a 2025 Ducati at Pramac?. The 2023 Ducati Marquez is already on is still consistently better than any of the rival bikes. I can see the reasons Ducati went with Marquez, but their treatment of Martin is reprehensible, I'm fairly neutral in my support in MotoGP, but will be cheering for anyone who can beat a Ducati next season.

💯 he is right. I’ve also been saying it for ages, it’s boring racing nowadays

Blame Honda, they build their bikes.

The only racing going on these days that's still good, is the crazy fun low flying Reno Air Races with over 2000HP screaming engines in airframes that are as technologically advanced as a rock. Aviation still knows where it's at.

If Ducati had left Marquez floundering on the Honda we wouldn’t be having this discussion 🤦🏻‍♂️

The world moves on, Casey should too. And MM is a one in a million, one in a century, no one like him. Wait and see.

What a 🐴 teeth tosser. Dude quit while he was still relevant because he couldn't handle the pressure

IMHO Borgo Panigale made a big mistake! I hope I'm wrong but why have two roosters in the same hen house? Offer #93 the 2025 spec bike under his current team or Prima...and if that's not good enough let HIM go to Aprilia! Same for Martin. Leave Bagnaia and Bastianinni where they were. They got played by Marquez...who engineered two of his rivals onto inferior machines while taking the best one for himself. Hope they don't regret it!

Okay someone like Casey gets a vote but the opinions of all the mortals among us? Well much like something else we all have they dont hold any real weight and mostly just there to spew shat out.

Modern day GP racing is bordering on boring.. too many 'tech" assistance whereas back in the day of Doohan, it was rider skill.. bring it back Dorna

Never liked the guy , dangerous rider, and very big headed

This is not only a sport hobby. It's business... w/out revenues, there is not investiment in motogp. W/out Motogp, there is not P&D, then not new tecnology, no New bikes for Market. Beyond the sport, there is company going concern.
