Martín secures his first title in the premier class in a season marked by the absolute domination of Ducati riders with Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo Team), Marc Márquez (Gresini Racing MotoGP) and Enea Bastianini (Ducati Lenovo Team) making up the Top-4, all Ducati, in the overall championship results.
Ducati’s technical supremacy in this MotoGP season is reflected in its record numbers, improving upon its sensational 2023 season. The Italian manufacturer improved its record for season victories (19 wins out of 20 races), setting a new record for podium lockouts (14). In six races, Ducati’s dominance extends to the top four riders.

“The dominance expressed by Ducati with its bikes, its riders and its technicians in the 2024 MotoGP season will remain forever in the hearts of fans of this sport,” says Claudio Domenicali, Ducati CEO. “I am very happy for Jorge, an incredibly talented rider who grew up with Ducati and together with us realized the dream he had since he was a child. After the crazy joy of 2022 and the ‘victory of awareness’ of 2023, today we want to celebrate the triumph of a system: the Ducati System.”
According to Domenicali, this system was inspired by the teachings of Galileo Galilei, the inventor of the scientific method and modern science. “A system that has led us to be the best in track-racing competitions, and which we also apply in the research, design and development of our products, proudly bringing ‘Made in Italy’ engineering all over the world. I would like to congratulate all the Ducati riders: certainly the World Champion Jorge Martín, but also Pecco, who never gave up until the very end, and then Marc and Enea, who contributed to a record-breaking MotoGP season for our company.”
Luigi Dall’Igna, Ducati Corse general manager, comments: “Winning the third World Riders’ title in a row is fantastic. It again confirms the strength of the Ducati, with the commitment and team spirit of all those riders and teams who have contributed to making it a winner. … Today’s victory is also the best way to say goodbye to Pramac Racing, a formidable group of professionals with whom we have worked in harmony for 20 years. 2024 was a stratospheric year for Ducati, in which we broke the record for victories and podiums, with the cherry on top of having placed 8 Desmosedici GP in front at the Sprint Race in Thailand. I want to thank all the men and women of Ducati Corse who work hard and with passion every day to achieve great results like the one we are celebrating today. Forza Ducati!”
