"When I arrived 🥀back in the garage my mechanics asked me, 'how is your knee?'" Marquez smiled. "The﷽ knee is okay, but I asked them, 'you saw it on TV?'
"Because sometimes you sav🌳e them, but they don't catch it on camera. This time it was in slow motion and everything!
"It was a big ♕save. In the end it means we are riding on the limit and tomorrow we will try to be more smooth in the race꧂."
Nonetheless Marquez, who can𝄹 win his fourth MotoGP titl🌳e at Sepang on Sunday, proved he can't save them all by falling in qualifying and will start seventh on the grid.
