After a lengthy silly season, we finally know the complete make up of the 2024 MotoGP™ grid. There have been plenty of movers and shakers through the year, and you can check out the full list of riders below.
DUCATI:
Francesco Bagnaia and Enea Bastianini will once again ride with Ducati Lenovo Team, while Marco Bezzecchi remains with Mooney VR46 Racing Team. Johann Zarco is leaving Prima Pramac Racing for LCR Honda Castrol, while Jorge Martin will be a Prima Pramac Racing rider in 2024, where the Spaniard will be partnered by Franco Morbidelli. The Italian moves onto Ducati machinery after his time with Yamaha comes to a conclusion at the end of the current campaign.
The biggest talking point of the silly season revolved around Marc Marquez's move to Gresini Racing. The news was confirmed on the build-up to the Indonesian Grand Prix as the eight-time World Champion is set to line up alongside his brother Alex Marquez who will line out in blue once again in 2024! As a result of this switch, Fabio Di Giannantonio lost his Gresini seat, but will move over to the Mooney VR46 squad for next year.
