Davide Tardozzi has played the role of Ducati team manager since 2014. A role that he loves, but more than anything, he is happy to evolve among the ranks of Ducati. A brand to which he practically worships. He wouldn't leave her for anything in the world, even for better pay. In the past, he tried, before quickly returning to his first love. He is also an astute observer of the world of Grands Prix. A two-pole universe composed of Valentino Rossi and Marc Marquez...

Davide Tardozzi arrives at 60 years old and this former rider is happy to be a part of the Ducati adventure. On Tutomotoriweb, he does not hide his affection for the Borgo Panigale firm: “ Ducati gave me a lot. It is very difficult for me to do this work elsewhere because I have become a leading professional here. I am loyal to the people of Ducati because I respect the opportunity they gave me in exchange for the recognition of my work ».

He pursues : " when someone has given you so much, you must also give a lot. Yes, it's true, I was made offers, but I didn't ask how much they were willing to pay me. It's not about the salary, it's about where you stand. It is clear that in life you should never say never. I already left Ducati once but not because I wasn't in perfect harmony. I didn't feel comfortable. Fortunately, I was able to return to Ducati to be reborn ».

Still, Ducati has stumbled upon a bone in MotoGP. In this case a certain Marc Marquez who, over the last two seasons, has blocked the road to the title Andrea Dovizioso and to his Desmosedici: “ he is a unique pilot, a pilot who has talent, intelligence, perseverance and humility. I admire him and I think he still has room to be even better, but in the long run he may have his limits ».

A phenomenon that rubs shoulders with another, Valentino Rossi ... " It's Marc Márquez 15 years older. He is one of the drivers who, like Márquez, sees further. He doesn't stay in the present. Most drivers watch race by race. They know what their rivals are going to do in this race, but Marquez and Rossi know what the drivers are going to do not only in this race but in the following ones. They have a much broader vision ».

Certainly, but what aboutAndrea Dovizioso in all of that ? However, he will be the spearhead of the reds in 2019… “ Andrea Dovizioso is undoubtedly one of those people capable of reasoning like Rossi and Marquez. He has changed and now has the same ability to see what other drivers will do ».
