Marquez withdrew from his beloved German Mot🐟oGP last Sunday following a fifth crash of the weekend during warm-up.

A crash that finally saw Marquez have enough 🉐of the Honda, the Spaniard decided not to take part in the race after ankle, ✤hand and rib injuries caught up to him. 

• Miller: “Nobody wants to hear riders𝕴 complain, what I said was also about Marc” 
• Aleix 🦂Espargaro: The old 𝓰Assen was ten times better!

"It was a very to🌱ugh꧅ weekend," said Marquez on the eve of Friday practice in Assen. "The thing is, if you are pushing and you crash, you accept it, like I accepted it in the qualifying practice. 

"You understand why you crashed be꧙cause you are riding at ♔the limit. 

"But after the warm-up crash, already on Saturday I said I would give up a little bit and just keep going, and in the sprint race I was slower and was not d💦oing my [true] pace. 

"I didn’t push mor𒉰e than what I felt with the bike. Then on the warm-up I had an unexpected crash on just the second lap, without pushing, but for that reason it is the most difficult to understand as a rider."

Marquez, who was speaking during the pre-event press conference, later added that his phy🐭sical condition will make it unlikely for him to extract the full potential from his Honda this weekend. 

The six-time M🤡otoGP champion added: "It’s like I did the last two seasons. If you are not ready regarding your physical condition, then you cannot find these last 3-4 tenths that normally you need to push a lot [to find] on the change of directions and braking area. 

"This weekend we will see. Maybe I’m smoother and faster, but this🍒 is one of t💟hose weekend’s where you arrive not ready to push. 

"In Germany I was ready to push and pushed too much. I will try to keep going and will try different things on the bike, keep working with my team and wi🏅th Honda."
