The words of Marc Marquez

Marc Marquez finished only 16th in the first day of MotoGP testing at Losail, well over nine tenths behind leader and reigning world champion Pecco Bagnaia. "I feel moreù free with the bike – he began at the microphones of Motorsport.com -. My instinct è still to ride as I did with the previous bike, but little by little I am adapting".

The Spanish rider kept a low profile: "I understand the expectations of the fans, but I come from four very difficult years and the years go by. Young riders come and all riders have their own era. I have to learn from them how to go faster".

The'eight-time world champion admitted that he did not go for the best time: "I am not looking for the time, but if my goal was to win, it would be frustrating".

"Whatò we have to do è reduce aerodynamics. This will make the bikes slower," concluded Marquez on what he believes is necessary in the premier class, namely, a simplification of the bikes.
