The words of Marc Marquez
“I'm like a child with new shoes. I want to try to learn and have fun again after the last difficult years. The expectations are very high, I am aware that I have to work a lot. My focus is on Bagnaia, on Martin, on the best. I have to understand how to extract the best from the bike“, these are the words of the eight-time world champion. “Toughest opponent? It's me“.
“I'm very happy to be here, the feeling is strange after so many years with Honda. But it's a very nice challenge, I'm happy and excited. I was looking for something different, to have fun with another bike. Gresini waited for me: it is a risky but beautiful challenge for the Gresini family and this historic team made up of wonderful people. But let's start slowly, if you eat too fast you won't digest“.
