Left with a bitter taste after Texas, where his perfect run of five straight wins ended in a crash from the lead, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez i🌳꧃s ready "to get back to work" in Qatar this weekend.

The COTA tumble, when Marquez cut too much kerb while holding a safe advantage over team-mate Francesco Bagnaia, also🌳 cost him the world championship lead by one point to younger brother Alex Marquez.

“Closing a weekend that has been practically perfect until that point with a craꦑsh is something that leaไves a bitter taste,” Marc said ahead of this weekend.

“It’s a shame, it was a fraction of a secon🍸d and we need to get back to work and continue to stay focused."

On paper, Qatar is not an ideal venue for Marquez to regain dominance, having only a single previous MotoGP win to his name.

That came back in 2014, at the st𝄹art of Marquez’s second premier-class season.

To put that into perspectiv🌳e, Valentino Rossi, Jorge Lorenzo and Andrea Dovizioso - all long retired - have won m♏ore recently in Qatar than Marc Marquez.

But💜 🔴while Marquez’s Honda was losing competitiveness, he’ll return on the factory version of a bike - the Ducati Desmosedici - that has won the past five Lusail races in a row (including Sprints).

“We have great potential, Ducati has alway🌼s been competitive on this track and we can do well,” said Marquez, who finished fourth (GP) and fifth (Sprint) on his Ducati debut for Gresini in the 2024 season opener.

Bagnaia, who won last year’s Qatar MotoGP, is eleven points behind Marc Marquez heading into th⛄is weekend.
