Marc Marquez “Am I MotoGP Champion? It seems like a dream!"
The Honda rider then added "It was a really long race, perhaps the longest of my career!"
It was an euphoric Marc Marquez who spoke in the post-GP press conference in Valencia, the last stage of the 2013 world championship. With the third place obtained he in fact won the MotoGP title, becoming the youngest winner of the Top Class. Numbers those in Spanish that are "scary" and that you can read clicking here
“It was a really long race, perhaps the longest of my career! At the beginning I was very nervous, even if I didn't let it be known, but if I'm honest I definitely was! Jorge had a good start as usual and I wasn't sure what kind of tactics he wanted to use. I followed him and Dani and then the race “stabilized”. Then, towards the end, I decided not to push as hard as I could, because the position would have allowed me to win the championship. It's been a fantastic year, it still seems like a dream to me, I'm the MotoGP world champion rider, the youngest in history! I really didn't expect to win on my debut, I'm really very happy. I thank all my team, my family and, of course, Honda and all our sponsors. The support from everyone and all my fans around the world has been incredible I dedicate this championship to all of them!”
