Stefan Bradl will replace Mar✃c Marquez at this weekend’s𒐪 Algarve MotoGP following the eight-time world champion’s recent training accident. 

Marquez suffered a crash during his off-road training which led to a 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:‘slight concussion’, and after remaining unwell for 🍰several days, the dec🗹ision was taken to skip this weekend’s second race at Portimao. 

It means Marquez misses out on the opportunity to fight for a third cons🌞ecutive win, while Bradl will instead compete in his fifth round this y🍰ear.

"Firs🌟t of all I hope Marc is recovering well and🅠 he can be back on track soon. I am looking forward to riding again as Portimao is an enjoyable circuit where we had a good result towards the end of 2020," said Bradl. 

"It’s neve𝄹r easy to jump on the bike, but we have had a lot of good bike time this year between the races and testing."

Bradl will line-up alongside Pol🌠 Espargaro who claimed his first podium of the year in Misano - his first as a Repsol Honda rider 🍎too. 

But even though the Spaniard is high on confidence, ‘I think it could be a bit difficult this weekend’ﷺ.

Espargaro said: "We had a great weekend in Misano and we were able to show what we 🐓can do on the Honda but now we have a new challenge. 

"Having already raced in Portugal this year will be good as we already have knowledge of the track but I think it could be a bit difficult this wee🏅kend compared to Mis♍ano. 

"Conditions will be different compared to the last 𒆙time here so we have to understand what🌞 adjustments we will need. 

"The motivation is so high to push in these fꦍinal rounds and rewaﷺrd the team again. I want to wish Marc a speedy recovery."
