Marc Marquez has batted away his favourite tag for the MotoGP French Grand P♊rix by pointing to the fact he was considered the same at COTA and Jerez when he crashed.

Eight-time world champion 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez topped both practice sessions at Le Mans on Friday, 168澳洲幸运5官꧒方开奖结𝓀果历史:ending the day with a new lap record of 1m29.855s.

The 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:factory Ducati rider was also strong on used tyres in both sessions, solidifying his position as favourite once again to fight for victory🌠 this weekend.

However, he had urged caution following his crash while leading in Austin and a fall while in the po𝓰dium places last time out at Jerez.

“This year lap times on Friday are super-fast and another lap record [has gone],” hꦏe told MotoGP’s officia🌱l website.

“But tomorrow I believe that if the temperature🐻 is ok, it will b𒉰e even faster in the qualifying practice.

“So, the most important thing is that the♍ feeling is good. But, it’s only Friday. So, keep focused and keep going.

“I was alsﷺo the favourite in Austin, I was also the favourite i🔴n Jerez.

“So, just I want to keep going. It’s only Friday. The feeling is good, as i💃n all the season, I’m r🐼iding in a very good way, I know how to do the lap times.

“With the used tyre I feel good. The last time attack of the day I was with the medium rear,🌺 that I was not bad on.

“So, let’s see. The problem when everything is working is choosing the best thin꧂gs.”

Marquez evaluates new Ducati chassis

On Frid♊ay at Le Mans,ဣ Marquez ran an updated chassis on one of his factory Ducati’s, which was first trialled at the Jerez test.

Mar🐻quez topped FP1 on it, while he proved fast on it still in the second session.

He 💧says his feeling on both chassis specs is similar, but Ducati believes the newer one is a better long-term bet.

“Yeah, today we reco🐽nfirmed a bit what w꧑e tried in Jerez because the target of that change is not to change my feeling with the bike,” he said.

“I mean, the numbers and the feelings mu🌸st be the same - and they are the same.

“It’s super similar, I 𝓡was able to ride with both bikes in more or less the same lap time.

“But, the engineers believe for the future they can improve a bit more the performance wꦑith that new item.

“Let’s see if tomorrow we will keep going or not; t🌊hey will decide, because my feelings are very similar෴.”
