Jorge Lorenzo expects several riders to challenge for the 2024 MotoGP title, but none more so than Francesco Bagnaia who he calls the ‘favourite’.
Of course, Francesco Bagnaia is the rider on the lips of many when thinking about world champion’s in 2024.‘Best of both worlds’: New ex-Ducati technical director ‘third phase’ of fresh Yamaha MotoGP approachAnd Lorenzo has picked out three in particular although he still sees Bagnaia as the rider to beat.
“He knows the bike perfectly because he’s been five years with the same bike. He made the evolution in the last two years of the new Ducati, so Ducati took his knowledge to build the bike with his riding style and this is very important. “We have seen Jorge Martin making pole positions and starting the races well, we can see Marc Marquez who will always try to be in the front because he is like a bulldog.
The Spaniard also believes the improvements made to the new 24-spec Ducati could be bad news for Marquez.
