Marc Marquez: “It was the first day that I said ‘if I fall, I fall…’”
Marc Marquez explains the♌ mind-set behind his first crash on a Ducati

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez has opene𝓡d up on his first time cꦛrashing a Ducati.
The new Gresini rider fell froꦡm hꦺis GP23 in the final hour of preseason MotoGP testing in Qatar.
He is coming off a season where he set the unwanted 🍨record for his most-ever amount of crashes (29) but, by losing control of his Ducati for the first time, it may be an indicator that he is edging closer to its limit.
"It🅷's true [Tuesday] was the first day that I have increased that intensity on the bike,” Marquez told .
“It༒ wa🌜s the first day that I said ‘if I fall, I fall…’
“And, in fact, the first fall has come. Bಞut it was ti✤me.
“It was the last day of preseason. It was time to raise this p๊oint.
"In fact, it was at the end of the day, the fall.
“Doing the long run, where I was challenging myself to improve po🎶ints.
“Because there are some corners where I lose, especially with respect tꦦo Pecco Bagnaia, Enea Bastianini and Jorge Martin, who are the ones I have referen🐲ce in the same factory.
"We will see what happens in the grand prix.
“But we are still a little far from these three or four r🌞iౠders who are making the difference.”
Marquez’s preseason was otherwise fairly low-key as he continued his adaption from 🐟the Honda, which he rode for 11 years, to the Ducꦅati which dominated MotoGP last year.
Last season’s title contenders Bagnaia and Martin step onto the developed GP24 this year, while Gresini and VR𝓰46 riders are left with the GP23.
"With what I have, I'm going to g⭕ive my best,” Marquez said.
“I'm having fun, which is 🦄important. I'm enjoying myself.
“Whether I'm in front or not, we'll see.
“Logically, if you're in froꦡnt, you'll have a better time, but it's true that at the moment Pecco , Bastianini and Martin have a little more than the rest.
"But we have already managed to reduce these𒊎 distances♕ that we had in Malaysia, for example.
“At the moment we still have thos🤪e two or three tenths left that are the most🐬 difficult to reduce.
"There are still a fewཧ things missing. The important thing and the evaluation of the preseason is good.
“Because we have done a solid preseason, without getting nervous, respecting the times that were nee✃ded to get to know the bike.”
Th♍e season begins on March 8 in Qatar with Marquez’s true potential on the Ducati still a mystery.
