Marc Marquez: ‘I will insist with Ducati to continue the progression…’
Marc Marquez says his determination to succee𓄧d wi꧑th Ducati will make him push Gresini throughout the 2024 MotoGP season.
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez sent another strong message at the Sepang MotoGP test,💃 as his race simulations were very competitive.
Pace over one lap still needs to be improved in order 💫to battle the likes of Francesco Bagnaia, Jorge Martin and team-mate Alex Marquez, but the eight-time world champ🐻ion has already adapted to his Desmosedici GP23 bike very quickly.
Speaking after day꧒-three of the Sepang test, Marquez told MotoGP.com: “We worked a lot during these three days, but step-by-step was the key point.
“I never panicked, I was never nervous, I was just working in the garage. I knew that the first and second day I was P19 or 20th position many times but I was super ꦅcalm.
“I w🔥as just trying to understand the bike. In Valencia it was a bit easier and as I expec💟ted it was a bit harder here because it’s one of the circuits on the calendar for me.
“For some reason I have always🐓 been slow here, but apart from that the progression was good.
“Yesterday [day-two] the pace was ♐not bad and I did the long run - sprint race simulation of ten ಞlaps - but today the most positive thing is that I was able to understand how to take profit from the new tyre and I was faster on both tyres. This was important.
“I’m still far from the top guys because half a second is a lot. But it is not bad. I did another sprint simulation which🎶 was good but youꦉ need to understand the time you did it and when others did it.
“For example, some did it with higher track temperatures which means you are slower. But the most important thing for me is that the feeling was g💙ood.”
Where Marquez shined the most was his sprint race 𒐪simulations, which took place on days two and three.
The plan was to do a first simulation on the second day but not the third, however, Marquez pushed Gres♑ini to change they’re plan and says he will continue to push them when it comes to using his meth🧸ods.
Marquez added: “The sprint race simulation was not on the plan but I wanted to do it to try and ‘play’ with the bike. Try to change lines, u🦂nderstand the gas and be more free. To be more free you need laps.
“I was tired but even like this I wanted to do it even if I was slower. But it is the way to im꧂prove.
“Staying in the garage you will never improve. You need laps. I will insist in the🗹 future to continue the progression.
“It will not be easy and it’s true that with Honda 🐎that in two runs I was already at the limit. With this bike it takes more time to understand.”
