When the 22 riders prepare their bikes for the 21 races, the world embarks on a journey from Qatar to Valenciana. The MotoGP 2024 season is finally knocking on the door, set to commence on March 8, Friday with free practice sessions, with several motives this time - Francesco Bagnaia aims to win three consecutive titles, Jorge Martin hopes for a spot at Ducati, Enea Bastianini seeking to repeat 2020, and others with their own aspirations.

The pre-season testing of MotoGP 2024 has already given a glimpse into what fans can expect this season- thrills at first, and new storylines both on and off the track. One notable development is the eight-time world champion Marc Marquez's switch from Honda to Ducati, sparking interest in the MotoGP world. He already had a disappointing ride during the Sepang test.
Another rider to watch out for is Jorge Martin, the runner-up in the 2023 MotoGP title race, who will not only have to compete against Marquez but also Enea Bastianini and Marco Bezzecchi for his goals. The Italian manufacturer will face strong competition from emerging rivals Aprilia and KTM, adding to the off-track drama in the market including the release of rookie Pedro Acosta from KTM in 2025.
