168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez was asked an awkward question in front of his brother Alex Marquez as they prepare to begin the 2024 MotoGP season as teammates.

The older Marqueꦯz was asked,🔯 if he was in second position in a race behind only his younger brother, would he try to overtake and risk them both crashing out?

"I took a gamble to finish seventh last year,” Marc was quoted by  after appearing on a Spanish TV💃 showꦿ alongside Alex.

He commented with a laugh: “It's instinctive, but in any case I prefer to ha﷽ve to ask for forgiveness rather than ask for permission, even if it's my brother.”

The dynamic between the brothers as G♐resini teammat🥀es will come under the microscope when racing gets underway.

"I am the one in charge in the box," Alex teased.

Marc added: "As soon as we started we had the first discussion because, when you ent🎐er the box, one rider is on the right side and another on the left.

“My entire sporting career has been on the right side of the box, so neꦰgotiating with the team manager I told him that I would like to have the right side.

“But he told me t🐻hat my brother did not want to change sides.”

How will they fare as teammates?

"You always t💯ry to help a teammate, although there is rivalry because a rider’s first rival is his t🐷eammate,” Marc said.

“They both want to be the best on the track, but in this case it﷽ is different because we are brothers.”

Alex joked: "I have a pretty badass teammate.”

Swapping Honda for Ducati

The eight-time world champion’s switch from Repsol Honda to Gresini Ducati is the key talkin♒g point heading into the 2024 Mot💧oGP season which begins on March 8 in Qatar.

Marquez has offered glimpses of excitement riding his newꦉ bike during testing, but clearly there are also issues to iron out.

"Each motorcycle♉ has its 'secrets' when it comes to riding it,” Marc said.

“A motorcycle can go very well but the rider has to ride it one way or ✨another.

“So, I have been riding th✨e Honda for 11 years, now I have changed to a Ducat🏅i and I have to automate everything so as not to fall into vices of the other bike.

"It was very difficult for me to make the decision, but once you make it, it is the riꦺght one👍.

“It was very difficult for me because there are people there with whom I have a friendly relationship and with whom I have worked for 11, 12 or 13 🍸years, lifelong sponsors.

“But in the life of the athlete there are times when it is necessary to c꧑hange in order to continue with the sports career and it was my turn to make this change.”

Did Marc Marquez ask for his brother's advice?

Marquez joins his yಌounger brother Alex who, a year earlier, swapped LCR Honda for Gresini.

They will ride year-old Ducatis, while the fa꧂ctory team an൲d Pramac riders benefit from the GP24.

Alex revealed that his br🦂other started questioning him about riding a Ducati only after his move to Gresini was confirmed.

"After the decision it was a pain... I had questionಞs all day," Alex said.

Marc insisted: "Before making the decision Iꩵ didn't ask him anything because I didn't want to be influenced by anything or anyone when making the decision, I wanted to feel what I really needed and then💧 decide.

“But once I made the dec🧸ision, ♈I started asking for information.”

Alex said about when his brother 🌱asked for advice: "Before, when I was more [new], no, but now yes.

“Now, beforeꦺ ma♕king a decision, he always asks me why he is more impulsive and I am more reflective.

“I can♌ say that I am one of the only people who listen.”

Alex said about his brother’s title hopes this year: "I believe that if Marc is patient, he can r🎃each a very high [position] at the end of the year. But you have to be patient.”

Marc added: "I haven't won a race in tw𒈔o years, so I can't expect to face the year 𓂃thinking about winning the World Championship.

“First I will have to collect🎀 points, then get a top 5, 💎then if I can a podium...

“I have to go little by little.”

Marc admitted his annoyance that other MoꦯtoGP riders are faster than him, as it stands.

"It annoys me, but it's the law of life,” he sa🌠id. “Every athlete has his moment, then he goes down a little, then he extends it and tries to go up again... You have to learn to survi✱ve.”
