Ducati, Nicolo Bulega replaces Marc Marquez and makes a confession

Nicolò Bulega will replace Marc Marquez in Portimao and Valencia, for the final races of the MotoGP season. For him it will be his absolute debut in MotoGP, and he will do it on a Ducati factory team bike.

Bulega confessed his excitement in a note: “I am very happy to be able to close a season like this with a nice last-minute surprise. Making my debut in MotoGP is the dream of any child who aspires to be a racer. Plus being able to ride for the last two race weekends of 2025 on the World Champion bike makes it all the more exciting”.

“It will be a good bet, I have no expectations, I will take this experience with all the necessary calmness also because, for now, I have only been able to try the Desmosedici GP in Jerez at the test. That said, the motivation to do well and give my best in any case is not lacking”.

“Thanks to Ducati and Ducati Corse for the trust, to Claudio, Gigi, Mauro, Davide, Stefano and Serafino for making me feel all their support in embarking on this adventure, and to Team Aruba.it Racing-Ducati with whom we ended a season as protagonists”.
