Marc Marquez: second place at Le Mans clarifies ideas for the future
The Le Mans weekend was a weekend worth remembering for Marc Marquez who both on Saturday and Sunday was the protagonist of two comebacks from 13th position on the starting grid. On the day of 1000th GP for the Gresini team, Marc Marquez he achieved a second position which took him to third place in the MotoGP World Championship standings on 89 points, tied with Enea Bastianini. With this result the Spanish rider now has clear ideas about what he wants for his future: an official bike.
Marc Marquez he demonstrated that he has not lost his touch and that he has found enough rhythm with his Gresini to be able to fight with the two riders who currently have the strongest bike: Francesco Bagnaia And Jorge Martin. The last three laps of the Le Mans race were goosebumps with a duel between the three drivers that left no margin for error. Motorsport.com reports the words of Marc Marquez commenting on his overtaking on the World Champion, Francesco Bagnaia:
“When I saw that I was third I thought we had come this far! Then I realized I had rhythm. But I arrived exhausted and had to risk a lot. That’s why I waited for the last lap, I was waiting for Pecco to attack, but seeing that he wasn’t attacking, I attacked. […] The important thing is that we were able to fight with the two Ducati references. But to fight for the World Championship you have to do what Martin and Pecco do. To fight with these drivers you have to be perfect in all areas. The two of them don’t do anything wrong, they always start from the front row… Of this group, I am the one who has the most ups and downs” – Marc Marquez
