The 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:factory Ducati rider warned coming into the fourth round of the season that Qatar was the first venue where 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alex Marquez and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Pecco Bagnaia would be faster than him.
But 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez took pole with a new lap record and went on to win the sprint by ov𓆏er 1.5s over Alex Marquez to retake the lead in the championship by two points, while Bagnaia was a distant eighth having qualified 11th due to a crash.
Reflecting on h꧃is perfect Saturday, Marc Marquez said: “Yeah, the most important thing after the Austin mistake was to keep the💧 same mentality.
“And I knew, I predicted, that here was one of the circuits where maybe I have to defend. But at this mom🃏ent, I feel good.
“I feel in a very similar level to Alex and Pecco. Pecco, of course did a m😼istake during the qualifying practice, but he has been fast all weekend.
“So, let’s see if tomorrow… I hate Saturdays because you need to control y🍸our emotions beca💫use tomorrow is the most important day.”
Alex Marquez briefly took th🐼e lead from his elder brother on the second lap of 11 in Saturday’s sprint, but was immediately re-passed and couldn’t put a wheel in front of him again.
In parc ferme, Alex Marquez said Marc Marquez had too much in hand to be challenged on Sunday, especially as he’d found a wa🌃y to be fast in the right-handers from Turns 12 to 14.
Marc Marqueꦅz says he adapted his riding style to be fast there, but insists that if he has to lose points again this weekend then he knows this will be down to the circuit.
“I mean, I know him and he knows 🍎me,” he said about his brief battle with Alex Marquez.
“He knowsℱ where I’m struggling a bit in this circuit and I know where he is struggling.
“So, let’s see tomorrow. It’s a long race. And in a long race distance I feel good, so let’s see if we can control all these th✨ings.
“Just worked on my riding style. I’m losing🐓 there [in Turns 12-14], but I’m losing much 🃏less than the previous years. So, let’s see tomorrow.
“I need to keep going in the same way, don’t exaggerate and try to be constant. This is the most important th🤪ing.
“It’s true that I need to improve in two corners, one in a specific way, that I think I can. Let’s see if they [the team] can help meඣ a bit with the set-up.
“But apa🌊rt from that, the rest I feel good. But tomorrow is a day where if I need to lose points I need to understand that because we are in a circuit that - I repeat, because I want to keep it in my mind - I normally struggle a lot.
“So, if here we are fast it’s a very good sign.”
He added: “Of course i🧜t’s important to always have that advanta🤪ge.
“It’s true that mistake in Austin thr♚ew away 25 points, or 20 - it doesn’🦂t matter.
“And there of course I wasted a bit all that work we did in the first races. But at the moment, the most im▨portant thing is not the advantage, is not the points.
“♈It’s that in a cirꦉcuit where my opponents know and I know that I struggle at, I’m there. So, this makes me happy and calm.”
