🤡Since returning from injury at Portimao, time attack pace between 𒊎the Honda and he has been a struggle. 

Before Saturday’s Q2 session at the Red Bull Ring, Marquez had only one top five qualifying result this season - fift🧔h at Sachsenring as he went on to claim victory.

While the Spaniard doesn’t believe a win or podium is on the cards during the Austrian MotoGP, Marquez believes he can show 𝄹an ‘acceptable pac🗹e to make an acceptable race’ following a breakthrough in FP3. 

Marquez said: "In FP3 we continued working on some big things, ꦍbut sometimes when you try big things you find something interesting and this morning this happ✨ened. 

"The feeling was good and I kept going w♑ith that. In the afternoon the pace was a bit better thaꦍn last weekend. 

"It’s true that we don’t have a pace to fight for the victory, we don’t have a pace to fight for the podi♉um, but we have acceptable pace to make an acceptable race. 

"Today was very warm and I think warm conditions helps us a little bit, but still we need more to conti🍰nue on the same way. 

"I ꦚask HRC for more because the bike is not ready to win and they had a good reaction, they brought many new things and you need to try the new things."
