168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez has denied that he is the favourite to fight for victory in the opening round of MotoGP 2025 in Thailand despite a head-turning race simulation on th𒁏e last day of testing.

The 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:factory Ducati rider completed a 23-lap race simulation on Thursday at the Buriram test in an average time of 1m30.378s, which was half a second quicker than the all-time best grand p༺rix lap at the venue from 2023.

Marquez also caused a stir with a sprint simulation at the Sepang test, while he to💛pped both days at Buriram on the combined standings.

This has already led many to brand𒅌 him favourite to open up the 2025 season with a win, though he still believes that title belongs to his team-mate Francesco Bagnaia.

“For m𝔍e, the favourite is Pecco 👍and I’m the second one,” he said.

“Last year we finished💙 the championship like this.

“He fought for the championship for the🐼 last four years, w𓄧on two times.

“So, we are in the world championship, everyone is very fast. Testing is tes𝔉ting, but how many pre-seasons is one rider super-fast?

“So, we will try t❀o find a good base. We found it, but continue with a good balance that w♚ill be very important.

“And don’t forget [Jorge] Martin. Ok, he’s not here and wheཧn you don’t see the name you just forget.

“But he’s a world champion, and as we saw [Marc🦂o] Bezzecchi today with the Aprilia he was fast.”

Marc Marquez on Ducati engine decision

On the final day of testing, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Ducati confirmed it wou꧟ld be racing with its 2024 engine for the next two years having not been able to make clear gains with the 2025 spec.

On the decision, Marquez said: “I mean, of course, from the beginning I saw that, fo🌠r me, it was two new bikes.

“So, from the beg💧inning I saw that the balance of the ’24 was super good.

“But then we kept w⛦orking a lot on the ’25 to understand if we can manage the weak points, because there was some very strong points.

“But then trying the bike in three different race tracks, we understood… well, more than understand, I think Ducati took a smart decision to stay calm and be with the 2024 base, the engine, because then w💞e have some small new things that we i🐲ntroduced here, we introduce at the races.

“But the bike is working well and was no𒁏 reason to take a risk to homologate an eng🃏ine that we don’t know for the next two years.”

Marquez also downplayed his impressive race run on the fina𓂃l day of testing, highlighting that not many did full distances like he did and that his brother Alex Marquez had a bike issue on his.

“I think nඣot a lot of people did a long race, but it was one of my targets,” he explained.

“I know that it is boring, but it was a motivation there against my brother because is is fas🃏t also and he had a small problem.

“But it was like ‘ok, we do it different, ✨not together, and then at the end we compare’. And we did it, because at the end he is riding in a very good way.

“I had a big list on technical🍨 side and on performance side and on my side of riding style, and we achiev🎐ed everything. So, I’m ready to start the season.”
