On October 4, 2023, the MotoGP made an official statement with some really big news. After 11 seasons, and among the most successful partnerships at that, Marc Marquez confirmed that he was leaving Honda. Back then, it was pretty much a known fact that the Spaniard would make his way to Gresini Racing, alongside his brother. Now, the Gresini Racing team has officially made the announcement.
Taking to Instagram, Gresini Racing uploaded an image of Marquez with his usual ear-to-ear smile. A simple caption reading, “It’s all true now! Welcome to the #GresiniFamily,” was added to the post, alongside an emoji of a goat and a blue heart. Funnily enough, if you scroll through the post (see below), Gresini Racing included an image of an actual goat (yes, the animal), and a strange email notification reading “Cannot Goat Message.” In case you’re not abreast with trends, goat is an acronym used by millennials and Gen Z-ers to connote “greatest of all time.” It seems that Gresini Racing considers Marc Marquez to be as such.
