168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez has delivered an update on his troubౠlesome arm which previously thre🌸atened to retire him.

Marquez’s move from Repsol Honda to Gresini Ducati this year has sparked new optimism in the six-time MotoGP champion.

But�♌� the lingering physical issue in his arm - from a fracture suffered in Jerez four years ago - are a lingering reminder of his limitations.

"As I have always said, and I am🥃 not lying, it is an arm with four operations that requires more maintenance than the ot⛦her,” he told .

“And so you have to take good care of it.

You have to pamper it, but well.

"I have been able to have a normal preseason. I have tested well at ♈home."

Marquez was forced to consider retirement as he🐭 went through the♊ fourth arm operation in 2022.

Although he recovered to resume his esteemed career, a 2023 blighted by a record-high 𒉰quantity of crashes on his H💧onda did little to inspire confidence.

Switching to Ducati - last year’s dominant bike - should help to curtail the 🗹physical blow💫s he has become accustomed to taking.

Marquez was unhurt from his first crash on a Ducati, in the final hour 🅰of preseason testing in Qatar when he was seeking the limit of his new machine.

Heꦡ explained: "I was doing the long run, I did fall on lap 1💜2, I think, but I had planned to do 20.

"When👍 you pl⛎an it like this, you feel good physically.

"Being realistic, at the moment w✤e are fighting fifth, sixth.

"It's very relative because then you get here to the grꦑand prix and the tyre changes on the track, everything chℱanges.

“But at the moment if it had been a race, we are - I think we need to see the exact 🐎papers - fourth, fifth, sixth, in the best of scenarios."

His fellow Ducati rivals remain꧙ the riders to beat when racing begins on March 8 in Qatar.

"There are still three, four r💧iders who luckily are riding in the same factory with," Marquez said.

✱"I can learn from them and I must learn from them how to get the most out🔜 of it.

"There are still a f🌠ew things missing. The important thing is the evaluation of the preseason is good.

“Because we have had 🍃a solid preseason, without getting nervous, respecting the times that were needed to get to know the bike.”

Last season’s title rivals Francesco Bagnaia and Jorge Martin - who have left the GP23 to Marquez and stepped onto the developed ღGP24 - are expected to resume their place at the front.
