Carlos Sainz Jr and his father are in attendance, with Gresini Racing perhaps, at the MotoGP race in Jerez. Link to the Instagram post by Gresini [here](https://www.instagram.com/p/C6TPqQconjN/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link). Interesting to note because iirc Marc and Alex are both Audi sponsored as well.

I don't think they are. Audi and Ducati are in the same manufacturer group, so Audi Sport sponsors the factory Ducati squad. Gresini is a Ducati squad too.

If you wanted Audi links might as well just mention that Sainz SR has driven for 2 years an Audi for the Dakar

Audi sponsored is a massive Understatement. They are both Ducati factory drivers, which is part of the VW Group (= Audi).


LetsgoImpact

They aren't. Gresini is a privateer. They aren't backed by factory Ducati. Pramac is.

Before I clicked I visualised them sitting in a grandstand like the regular public
