Sept 23 (Reuters) - Gresini Racing have the opportunity to sign Marc Marquez next season and are waiting for a decision from the six-times MotoGP champion, Ducati sporting director Paolo Ciabatti said on Saturday.
Marquez has struggled with Honda this season and the Spaniard has finished only three races, his best finish being seventh place at Misano earlier this month.
The 30-year-old said earlier this month that he will come to a decision during the Indian and Japanese Grands Prix.
"As far as Gresini goes, I think it obviously looks like they have this opportunity and they are waiting for Marquez’s decision," Ciabatti said in an interview with MotoGP at the Indian Grand Prix.
"For sure one is to stay with Honda, the other two we can only guess... You should ask Marc Marquez and Gresini what's going on.
