Marc Mar🐎quez has shrugged off missing out on victory at the Austrian MotoGP and completing a perfect record of winni🌺ng at every race on the current calendar.

The Repsol Honda rider narrowly lost out to Andrea Dovizioso in a fina✤l-corner battle at thꦗe Red Bull Ring meaning he had to settle for second place for a third consecutive year.

Dovizioso also denied Marquez the chance to win at the only circui🎶t he is yet to reach the top step of the podium at thrꩲoughout his career which is on the current MotoGP calendar.

While Marquez pl🐠ayed down the imperfect statistic, he feels it will be of little significance if he can seal the world title this season.

“My mentality is a winner mentality and every weekend I try to approach with the goal of trying to win the race,” Mar♈quez said. “This weekend we worked very strong as we knew Dovi, it was one of his bes💝t circuits, we tried until the end.

“But I learnt alre🌱ady a few years ago that if you win the championship at the end of the season nobody remembers the race until next year when we arrive here.”

ꩲWith his MotoGP world championship lead trimmed to♕ 58 points by Dovizioso with eight rounds to go, Marquez took comfort from maintaining an outstanding run of results in 2019.

Aside from his mechanically-triggered non-finish at the Americas MotoGP, Marquez has finished eiꦍther first or second in every race so far this season.

“Even like this [when] I had a 🐭small chance to win the race, I tried but it was not possible, the most important thing is that we struggled but we finished together with Dovi on the final l꧅ap,” he said. “That is the most important thing in the championship.”
