Cal Crutchlow has offered a stark warning to MotoGP riders that they don’t stand much chance against Marc Marquez if he switches to Ducati.
Whispers in the Japanese MotoGP paddock this weekend continue to suggest that the eight-time world champion will quit Honda to join Gresini Ducati next year, although he has refused to confirm his plans.
"But I've always said: If Marc were to switch to a Ducati, everyone else wouldn't even need to compete."I basically don't care, I just want to see a good race on TV.“I was riding a Honda at the same time. I knew what he was doing and I understood it. But I couldn't put it into practice. "We know that Yamaha and Honda can build the best bikes in the world because they have done it for many years.
“In five years' time the two Japanese manufacturers may be back at the top in full force and the others in nowhere. That's racing."The problem is that they have to change the way they work. Because what they have always done doesn't work now. The rules of the game have changed, that's the reality.
