Ducati: Marc Marquez Triumphs, Tardozzi Loses Control. “It’s red!”

Marc Marquez triumphs at Misano and takes the lead in the MotoGP World Championship standings. The Ducati rider dominated the Misano Grand Prix from start to finish, making the most of Aprilia’s struggles—including Marco Bezzecchi’s crash and Jorge Martin’s difficult Sunday.

Ducati Corse has released a video showing the celebrations at the Borgo Panigale team’s pit wall following Marc Marquez’s victory. Team manager Davide Tardozzi, in particular, couldn’t contain his excitement: first, he punched the pit wall a few times, then he celebrated with the entire team as Marquez crossed the finish line. At one point, he turned to the camera and shouted, “It’s red!”

Tardozzi then entered the pits to join Marc Marquez’s team in their celebrations. Thanks to this victory, the No. 93 rider is one step closer to his tenth world title.

General Manager Gigi Dall’Igna also spoke after the race: “What a victory for Marquez! He really rode like Marc. There’s not much else to add. He managed everything perfectly throughout the race—from start to finish. There’s still too much time and too many races left to start thinking about the title. Time is certainly on our side—after all, we’ve made a fantastic comeback so far. We’re keeping our feet firmly on the ground, though,” he told DAZN.
