Ducati boss Tardozzi says Marc’s health comes first


SEPANG: Newly crowned Marc Marquez’s (pic) absence from the final two rounds of the 2025 MotoGP World Championship and the post-race test in Valencia is surely a blow to Ducati but factory team boss Davide Tardozzi insisted it was more important to allow the Spaniard to have proper recovery.

Marquez will miss the remainder of this season as he is recovering from the shoulder injury he sustained at the Indonesian Grand Prix last month when he was taken out by Italian Marco Bezzecchi on the opening lap.
