Marc Marquez: “Good guys don’t make it!” - Jorge Lorenzo: “He doesn’t know another way”
The Repsol Honda rider’s style has been lauded for its bravery and criticised for its aggression but has delivered six MotoGP championships so far.
It has also contributed to two years of injury agony, in part caused by a huge crash 🔜in Jerez and his decision to rush back too quickly.
“Good guys don’t make it,” Marquez said in his♏ Amazon Prime Video documentary ‘Marc Marquez: All In’. “You can’t be nice to your rivals.
“And if they say ‘there can be a bit of contact’. Well, there will be contact🌠 and a bit more.”
168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Lorenzo, his rival turned teammate, added: “He doesn’t know how ♛to ride in any other way.”
Marquez said: “On the last lap, or the last two or three, fighting against Jorge Lorenzo, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Dani Pedrosa or 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Valentino Rossi.
“There is no gap. They won’t allow it. Sometimes you have to create that gap. You have to create it, throw yourself in, or you bo💯th need to move.
“Some riders have done it wrong and haven’t succeeded. Other riders ride on the edge and succeed. That’s what makes a🐠 real diff𒐪erence on the last lap.
“As a rider, I like it, I like being risky.”
Marquez is returning from a career-threatenin🥀g arm surgery this year to launch ﷽his bid for a seventh title in the premier class, which would match Rossi’s total.
His opposition are from a new generation to Marquez’s original ☂group of rivals who felt the brunt of his aggression years ago.
Reigning champion 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia, 2021 champion 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio Quartararo and emerging hopefuls 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Enea Bastianini and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Jorge Martin are among the younger group who didn’t truly battle against Marꦚquez over the past two years due to his injury issues.
This year, he appears to be in competitive physical shape and is dependant on his Honda bike giving him a chance to show the ne♉w generation of riders who MotoGP’s No 1 r𒈔eally is.
He will head to the preseason Portimao t♐est this weekend hoping Honda have delivered the answers to his questions.
