A senior figure at Ducati believes that Marc Márquez will be fully ready for the next race in Spain, even after a recent crash.

Márquez had a fast and heavy accident earlier in the season. He hurt parts of his body, including his arm and hand, after losing control of his bike at high speed. The crash was serious and caused concern about his fitness for the next race.

However, Ducati’s engineer, Gigi Dall’Igna, is confident that the Spanish rider will recover in time. He said that Márquez should be “100% fit” for the Spanish MotoGP at Jerez.

This is important for Ducati because Márquez is one of their key riders. He is known for his speed, skill, and strong racing mentality. Even after many injuries in his career, he has often come back and performed at a very high level. His experience and determination make him a major hope for the team.

The Spanish Grand Prix is also a special race for Márquez. It takes place in his home country, with many fans supporting him. Being fully fit for this event could give him extra motivation and confidence.

Ducati as a team has not had the easiest start to the season. Other manufacturers, especially Aprilia, have shown strong performance in early races. Because of this, Ducati is hoping that a fully fit Márquez can help them fight back and improve their results.

There is also belief inside the team that recent work and testing will make the bike better. If the bike improves and Márquez is healthy, Ducati could become very competitive again.

In simple terms, Ducati are positive. They believe Marc Márquez will recover quickly, return at full strength, and be ready to challenge for strong results at the Spanish MotoGP.
