There has been a lot of talk about Alex Marquez leaving Honda for Ducati. As a member of the Honda team, Marquez was equally motivated. He gave everything he had, but it wasn't enough. However, things are looking much better for him now, and he is fighting for a top spot this time around.
During an interview with the media, Marquez compared Honda's bike with Ducati's. "Well, in the end you go on the bike and it's not easy because you give the same, but having a better bike, instead of fighting for 15th, you are fighting for the podium.
It's like that. In the end the effort, the dedication, the concentration is exactly the same. ”- he said, as quoted by crash.net
Alex Marquez on his team: We have to be positive for the future
As a result of all that happened, Marquez is both satisfied with everything that happened, and he wants to show even greater performance in the remaining races.
It appears that his team is in great shape and could have a lot of success during this season. "We have achieved the pole, we have achieved a podium, it has been a top 5 in the sprint and if you ask me before coming [to Argentina] I would have signed on any paper, do have this weekend.
I feel happy. I missed the second position because Johann Zarco had a little more and that's it. We have to be positive for the future, because we are in constant progression”. Alex exceeded expectations, as did his team.
"I did not imagine it, is the truth,” he said. “It’s much better than I imagined and as I said at the beginning of the season. I think it is not the real position to be in the top four of the championship, in performance, where we are, I think we are more from five to eight, to be clear”.
