Marc Marquez has confessed his surprise that Honda have committed themselves to a two-year deal for Luca Marini, when many of MotoGP’s top talents will become available for 2025.

Ducati riders have already claimed that Marc Marquez will immediately fight for the MotoGP title next season, which he believes is an early start to some mind games.
