Francesco Bagnaia of Ducati Lenovo and Franco Morbidelli of Pertamina Enduro VR46 shared their thoughts on the suspected teamwork between Marc Marquez and Alex Marquez in MotoGP.

Marc Marquez, now riding for Ducati Lenovo, and his younger brother Alex Marquez from Gresini Racing, have shown strong performances, frequently finishing first and second in both Sprint and main races.

One form of assistance that has gained attention is the towing strategy, where one rider allows the other to follow closely and benefit from the slipstream, resulting in a faster lap time.

Franco Morbidelli commented on the collaboration among riders:

“We’re not blood-related, but we’ve helped each other a lot and we still do during practice sessions.”

Current VR46 Riders Academy riders competing in MotoGP include:
* Franco Morbidelli
* Francesco Bagnaia
* Luca Marini
* Marco Bezzecchi
