Should Gresini have brought in Nicolo Bulega to replace Alex Marquez for the Hungarian GP?

I'm not discrediting Lecuona's talent, but surely Bulega would be the best option here? He's available, has won every race in WSBK and is linked with MotoGP in '27. Surely this is the best opportunity for Ducati to trial him?

It feels like they're deliberately leaving points on the table and denying Bulega some valuable MotoGP experience

Alex Marquez's absence could have created a nice chance for Nicolo Bulega to make another MotoGP cameo, but his bigger priority is the 2027 regulations - and Ducati might not want the Italian to make another cameo with their World Superbike star potentially looking elsewhere for a move to MotoGP next year.
