MARC MARQUEZ PUTS UP A SHOW IN AUSTRIA
Team Gresini Racing MotoGP’s Marc Marquez has put up a show in today’s full MotoGP race in Spielberg. The rider #93 had a challenging time at the start with a coming together with Morbidelli, but then made a sensational recovery from 13th to 4th at the finish line. His pace was podium-worthy and his determination second to none, and without that setback things may have gone even better.
A 13-second gap from winner Bagnaia at the chequered flag does not give justice to the performance by the eight time world champion, who will get ready for Aragon with great confidence on his growing potential with his Ducati machine.
Alex Marquez rounded out the top ten as he could not find the right direction this weekend, as the top ten became the realistic target.
4th – MARC MARQUEZ #93
“This has been probably the best weekend of the season feeling-wise. Great Friday, excellent qualifying and two ‘easy’ podiums within reach. They didn’t come, yesterday because of a crash and today a few too many little issues especially at the start. Still, we’re leaving Spielberg in good spirits, while hoping the stars will align in order to be even more competitive.”
10th – ALEX MARQUEZ #73
“Things didn’t go as hoped already from Friday and there’ll be a lot of work to do to be back on the type of form showed in Silverstone. Starting from the middle of the pack made the job difficult to find the right pace, so I focused on finishing the race and score some important points for the championship. Things will be different in Aragon.”
