RiderTua.com – After finishing 2nd in the sprint at Portimao, Marc Marquez also finished second in the sprint at COTA Texas. With a happy face, the Gresini Ducati rider said, “Finishing second today was unexpected. Of course, I came to Texas with a good feeling and hoping to take another step with my Ducati. But on laps 3 and 4 my feeling on the bike was very good. bad.”
Then Marc suddenly had a problem he had never experienced before, not in a single session. These problems often occur especially in the first sector. What he had to admit was that at this stage of the race he was not concentrating enough to balance controlling his bike with his racing style, he added.
When Pedro Acosta overtook Marc Marquez, it was a warning for him. The 8-time world champion explained that he responded immediately and became more concentrated and consistent than before. Since then he has avoided problems with his bike and was able to take the lead over Jorge Martin.
What exactly is the problem he is experiencing? Is the vibration like Martin complained about annoying since the Qatar test? “I don’t know what Martin said, but our problems are probably similar,” Marc replied.
Then the rider from Cervera, Spain, compared the sprint in Portimao with the sprint in Texas. “My feeling on the bike in Portugal was much better. I rode better there than I did here today. I know I can still improve my riding style in America. In Portimao I rode well and was second. I didn’t do well here and came in second,” said Baby Alien.
What does this mean for tomorrow’s race (Sunday)? Marquez emphasized that he was not at the limit of his bike’s capabilities today. If he can do that, plus the consistency Maverick showed today, then it would be perfect.”
Regarding the results in Sunday’s race, Marc realistically answered, “Third position. I will take it straight away. If we look at the picture realistically, Vinales and Martin are clearly faster. Then an equal package will be with Acosta, Bagnaia, Bastianini and me “But of course we dream of winning, that’s logical, the key is consistent and consistently fast racing.”
