Alex Marquez “not surprised when Alex Rins was complaining” about LCR Honda

Marquez first quit Honda to join Gresini Ducati at the start of tಞhis MotoGP season, brℱinging an end to an association which stretched back nine years.
Rins, needing a seat due to Suzuki quitting MotoGP abruptly, rep💝lacing Marquez at LCR Honda but has already confirmed he🎶 will leave after one year to join Yamaha.
“Yes, I understand,” Marquez said about wa𒈔tching🔯 Rins follow him out of the exit door.
“I am sad for the team, for LCR.
“Because I share many things with them, so I’m sad𒁏𝓀 for that, because after a half-year he has already changed.
“But I understand the movement because𝓀, in the end, an official team is always mܫore attractive.
“If you see both situations, a♈bout motorbikes, they are similar.
“In an official team you have many more things.”
Money being the key issue?
“Yes, for example,” Marquez replied.

Rinsꦉ had voiced his displeasure earlier this season at his perception that Honda were not utilising him to develop parts for their uninspiring bike.
“I was not surprised,” was Marquez’s intriguing confession.&n𒁃bsp;
“I was not s🦩urprised when he was complaining about t༺hat, I was not surprised.”
Marquez never truly justified his talent wh⭕en at Honda, finishing no higher than 14th in his three seasons with the Jap꧅anese manufacturer.
His departure, leaving behind brother Marc Marquez, has already paid dividend🀅s with a first podium since 2020 riding a Ducati.
Rins oddly achဣieved Honda’s first MotoGP race win from a rider aside from Marc Marquez this year at the Grand Prix of the Am꧋ericas.
But the relationship soured and will 🌜now end, meanwhile Rins is missing this weekend’s British MotoGP due to a broken leg.
