The MotoGP transfer window is not over yet, and there are still moves to be made until the end of the year. Rumors are still circulating in the paddock, but there are also confirmations, the latest being the renewal of the contract ofAlex Marquez at Gresini. Charles Pernat evokes the future ofEnea Bastianini, Marco Bezzecchi et Franco Morbidelli.
“We are in the hands of Johann Zarco and in the head of Bezzecchi”
“We are in the hands of Johann Zarco and in the head of Bezzecchi”, has begun Carlo Pernat. “Everything is a bit confusing at the moment, but I think that after Austria everything will inevitably become clearer, because the French and the Italian will have to make their decision. »
The future ofEnea Bastianini is also pending: “The physical problems are almost entirely behind him. Enea has everyone's trust and great talent. He just needs to stay calm and work like he always has.", commented Pernat. “It's just about getting everything lined up a bit, because for him it's like the season started at Silverstone. »
“If Bezzecchi wants to drive a Desmosedici 2024, he will have to agree to move to Pramac. However, this would mean abandoning the team with which he has been so successful since his debut, it would mean signing up for two years and also breaking off his collaboration with Matteo Flamigni“, mentioned the manager of the MotoGP rider. “It would also mean taking a bike that might have some problems at the start, because new bikes always have something to fine-tune in the first races.”, he added.
However, Pernat is also clear on other points: “I wouldn't be surprised if Bezzecchi ultimately chooses to stay where he is. But the same bike as the factory bikes would clearly appeal to all riders. If he wants to think about it until the last moment, it's more than understandable, it's not an easy choice.", did he declare.
“There are important people pushing to bring Jake Dixon to MotoGP”
“His situation is certainly complicated”, that's how he started talking about Franco Morbidelli. “Some say he already has a deal, but I’m not sure that’s the case. On the other hand, lately some people are putting pressure, and I'm talking about important people, for Jake Dixon to come to MotoGP.", he said about the Briton, who rides Moto2. “It's a bit absurd given that there is practically no room for Acosta and Arbolino, but Dixon is English and an Englishman in MotoGP, also for sponsorship and TV rights reasons, we want to try to integrate it. »
This complicates everything for the Italian who will be a future ex-Yamaha rider. “Franco Morbidelli now has one more competitor. If Zarco goes to LCR, I think Morbidelli could move to VR46 with Bezzecchi to Pramac, or even to Pramac if Bezzecchi chooses to stay where he is. Anyway, he's vice-world champion and he's younger than Zarco, so Campinoti would still get a deal.", declared Carlo Pernat.
“As far as the Gresini team is concerned, I think that at the moment Morbidelli has the same chance as Tony Arbolino to drive the Desmosedici”, did he declare. “Nadia Gresini and the other team members also take their time to decide. The mount is one and the papabili are four: Franco Morbidelli and Tony Arbolino 30% each, Fabio Di Giannantonio 25% and now there is also Dixon to whom I would leave the remaining 15%. Although anything could still happen, even a clash with Zarco himself if he really doesn't want to leave Ducati"he concluded.
