Marquez’s words

Marc Marquez seems reborn in Ducati but has not forgotten the last difficult years in Honda, affected by injuries: "Sometimes even I wonder whyé I keep going – he admitted to The Telegraph – but motorcycles are my passion".

"I am very lucky to have this job and I want to continue. On the motorcycle, I take the maximum risk every time becauseé è my job. When you fall, when you slide down the track, all you think about is getting to the spare bike in the pits. Sometimes you understand the crash, sometimes you don’t, but we are not afraid to crash. If you understand the crash, for example, when you brake too late and you know why the crash happened, you can push again right away”.

"Five years ago, before the injuries, winning was the normal thing – recalled the'eight-time world champion -. I realize that winning is not è a normal thing. After all the injuries and four or five long arm operations, now if I win è like a gift".

"I had a great career and now I am back to pushing the limits to try to improve. Last year I did the most difficult thing in my career and it was to recover from those injuries and win again with Gresini", he concluded.
