Front row for Marc Marquez in the Qatar Grand Prix of the MotoGP class. Tomorrow in Lusail the eight times world champion will start alongside Jorge Martin and Enea Bastianini. Honda has improved compared to 2021, as demonstrated by Pol Espargarò’s sixth time trial, but Marquez keeps his feet on the ground in view of the race that starts tomorrow at 16:00.
Marc Marquez to the microphones of Sky Sport MotoGP he underlined that together with his technicians he found an effective modification in terms of the race during the fourth free practice session: “Today I started to slip a bit in insertion. I like it for my driving style. But here in Qatar you can’t drive a lot like that. I have seen that if I drive as I naturally do here in Qatar it doesn’t work. I have to look for the distance. In PL4 we made a change to the bike and so we took a good step forward. I felt comfortable riding the bike. However, we are not the fastest on the track. We’ll see tomorrow. Starting in the first two rows is important. We are there “.
For the Honda phenomenon, a podium tomorrow on a historically difficult track like that of Lusail would be worth a victory: “If I can win? Here in Qatar I always say the same: a podium equals a victory. And if I’m not on the podium, that’s not a problem. But let’s see tomorrow. Difficult to understand: Suzuki was scary all weekend, then today in PL4 and in Qualifying they struggled. We try to give 100%, we are in the first race and we have to push. Tomorrow’s points are the same as in Valencia. But we are not the fastest. If Yamaha is out of the game here in Lusail? Quartararo starts behind, but has a great pace. But overtaking Ducati and Aprilia is not easy. Not our problem for now. We are doing better than expected here in Qatar ”.
