Are Ducati making a mistake not replacing Marc Marquez for the Catalan Grand Prix?

Absolutely! I understand that Pirro is their only option, but Ducati aren't in a position where they can leave any points on the table. While he isn't a favourite, Pirro does have a non-zero chance of getting things done.

Given the quick turnaround since the French Grand Prix, Ducati would have only been able to call up Michele Pirro (with Nicolo Bulega unavailable with World Superbikes in Czechia). So, it is not a mistake for Ducati not to replace Marc Marquez - but it will add fuel to Liberty Media's desires for permanent replacement riders.
