Will the Marc Marquez case set a precedent? It would be a nightmare for teams and managers because it would mean that a contract is no longer worth much in MotoGP. That being said, with KTM, doubt began to arise about the enforceability of this agreement by which one or more people bind themselves to give, to do or not to do something with respect to someone. A. But in a paddock like MotoGP, such freedom of action could quickly turn into a free-for-all. In any case, after Marc Marquez, eyes are now turning to Fabio Quartararo who does not miss an opportunity to clarify that he is not happy with Yamaha. At Honda, it started like that…
Honda and Marc Marquez would they have given a dangerous signal for the balance of the MotoGP paddock? Charles PernatOn MOW, believes it and is even more concerned because it is his core business as a manager that is impacted here: “ a message is transmitted it could be really dangerous » announces the Italian, noting the end of the game between Honda et Marc Marquez. He adds : " the contracts are no longer valid at all. I wouldn't be surprised if, after Marc Marquez, other drivers follow the same path ».
« I would not be surprised if, after Marc Marquez, other drivers follow the same path, and the reference is clearly Fabio Quartararo »
Et Charles Pernat says who he is thinking of in particular: “ the reference is clearly Fabio Quartararo. The Frenchman is also not happy with the Yamaha and with the saddle left empty by Marquez, chain movements could be triggered. Given that breaking contracts would no longer be a taboo, but a consolidated and sensational precedent ».
The manager ofEnea Bastianini don’t forget a brand either, after mentioning a driver: “ even at KTM something shocking is happening. I'm told that to make room for Pedro Acosta, Augusto Fernandez will be eliminated. I put myself in the place of Fernandez's manager who works for months and months to structure a contract. Then this contract is signed and after not even one season, everything is called into question ". And he concludes: “ here it seems that even contracts are no longer a serious thing ».
