Gresini Racing has now withdrawn its teams from the season-ending races at Valencia.
Team boss Fausto Gresini also confirmed his riders would miss the end-of-season tests which follow on from the November 6 races.
'The only certainty is that my team won't participate in the upcoming Valencia Grand Prix and in the tests programmed after the race,' Gresini told Corriere dello Sport.
'Everything happened so fast. I'm lost for words. I know our job is dangerous, that risk is part of the game, but you always hope nothing happens.
'When it does happen and you find yourself in the middle of it, everything changes, it's difficult to accept it.

They are still going to Valencia to show their respect, and will set up Marcos box with his bike and leave it empty all weekend. Their tribute to him.
His funeral will be held in his home town on Thursday.
