With the Italian team, the Catalan won two Grand Prix podiums in 2023, a third place in Argentina and a second in Malaysia, and two sprint victories, in Great Britain and Malaysia.

Alex Marquez is currently in tenth place in the championship, far behind his brother Marc, who is third.

The identity of the second driver who will play for Gresini in 2025 is not yet known.
