Davide Tardozzi disappointed with fans’ treatment of Marc Marquez at Mugello

Ducati Lenovo management expressed concern over the treatment received by Marc Marquez at Mugello Circuit, Italy — the rider who now represents the Italian factory team faced an unwelcoming reception from some supporters.

The Spanish rider encountered an uncomfortable situation while performing at home ground — he received pressure and jeers from the spectator stands, even after showing impressive performance at the 2025 Italian MotoGP series.

Ducati Lenovo team manager, Davide Tardozzi, stated his dissatisfaction with the incident — he believes it’s inappropriate for an Italian team rider to still receive negative treatment from the public, regardless of his past rivalry with Valentino Rossi.

The situation reached its peak when Marquez received whistles from the audience after claiming victory in the Sprint session — a moment that demonstrated lack of respect for Ducati team’s own achievement.
