Marc Marquez says he is “80% sure” he’d have crashed in the weඣt MotoGP French Grand Prix had it not been for the error he made two weeks prior at Jerez.

The 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:factory Ducati rider crashed in the opening laps of the Spanish Grand Prix a fortnight ago while running in the podium places and with pace enough to🌟 fight for the win.

This mistake is something that has proved to be a vital learning experience for 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez, who cautiously rode to second in 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:the wet French GP on Sunday.

The result, along with his win in the French GP sprint, has put him 22 points clear in the championship♛ having come into🌼 the round trailing by a point from his Jerez crash.

Marc Marquez "80% sure" claim at French MotoGP

Had he come away from Jerez with a win, Marquez believes 🐲he would have likely hit the deck at Le Mans “because I know myself”.

“Was that kind of Sunday that you can do a mistake, or it’s🍒 easy,” he said on Sunday in the post-race press conference.

“But the fact that🌺 I did a mistake in Jerez avoided the mistake today, because if not, if I came from a victory from Jerez I’m 80% sure I would crash today because I know myself.

“So, that m✅istake of Jerez… I need to keep thinking about this and try to improve for the future.”

Marquez added that the French GP, which also saw him serve two long lap penalties f♉or changing bikes on the warm-up lap as well as a fla✃g-to-flag pitstop to go to wet tyres, was one of damage limitation.

“It was the kind of day whe𝓀re you need to minimise the damage,” he explained.

“Why, because in those conditions it’s s🐼uper easy 🐎to do a small mistake.

“In the race, I was just trying to control Alex [M🍷arquez], who is the main opponent fo♛r the championship at the moment; he is the one who is closest to me.

“Just I tried to manage that distance between ♌him.

“In one point, when I go out with the ra⛎in [tyres] I pushed and I saw I was closing Johann, but eight seconds were too much [of a gap to make up].

“And riding in 1m45♛s was too much of a risk and I go💖 back to 1m46s, 1m47s, finish the race and done.”
