Marc Marquez puts even more pressure on Pecco Bagnaia and Jorge Martin
During an intervention to the microphones of the Spanish newspaper "As", the Gresini team centaur Marc Marquez, among the various topics covered, è returned to the rainbow struggle between Pecco Bagnaia and Jorge Martin, which sees the pilot of Prima Pramac still leading the standings with 10 points ahead with four races to go.
"When you play for the championship you bring out the best in yourself, Jorge and Pecco are doing that and they are raising their level more and more compared to the rest of the category. I think if they continue to keep this pace, Bagnaia or Martin will fall again. With this driving to the limit è difficult to resist without making mistakes in every race" began the Spanish centaur.
"I stand by my bet on Martin. He è started 11th and I know how complicated life is when you start soì back. He solved the problem and handled it well in the early laps" continued the'former Honda driver.
"The mistake in Turn 1 è was my fault. I braked late, the wheel è locked and I realized that I would not be able to make the turn. I decided to lose a second and a half and not fall. Luckily I didn’t lose too much, but that third position made the difference as fifth crossed the finish line more than 17 seconds behind. Overall, I am happy and satisfied that I was able to fight with the other Ducati-powered riders even in Motegi" Marc Marquez commented.
