MotoGp, Marc Marquez goes down flat on title fight
Marc Marquez has clear ideas
Ready to face the Gp of Japan in Motegi, home of Honda, for the first time as an opponent of the Japanese manufacturer, Marc Marquez è at the same time aware, by his own admission, that he is no longer involved in the fight for the title, despite the arithmetic is still far from condemning him definitively (the points available from here to the end of the championship are 185, Jorge Martin is 78 away).
"In Indonesia né me né Bastianini could fail, becauseé getting a negative result would have taken us out of the title fight. That's what è happened, him for one reason and me for another. The difference between us and the top two in the standings è great, the World Championship will be played in two" said Marquez to 'Marca' referring specifically to Jorge Martin and Pecco Bagnaia.
Of course, as long as you're in the game for math you never know,” he added, “but it's very complicated. I’m trying to take all the positive things even from the bad weekends, this gives me the right peace of mind to face the races between now and the end of the season, continuing to work on my weaknesses and refine the strong ones".
This year Marquez will be able to think about the Motegi weekend without having to participate, as in the years at Honda, in the many testimonial events for the Japanese manufacturer: "Whether I like it or not, I have experienced many moments here, many 'Honda Thanks Days' – said the Gresini Racing centaur -. It è seemed a little strange not to have to participate in any event when I arrived, but è normal".
