MotoGP | Gp Jerez Race: Marquez, “I did my race, I fought against my times” [VIDEO]

MotoGP GP Spain Honda Repsol Race – Marc Marquez won the Spanish Grand Prix, fourth stage of the 2019 MotoGP, second overall victory.

The Spanish Honda rider, starting from the front row, dominated the entire race. In the first few laps it seemed that Morbidelli could keep up, but after a few laps the Spaniard dug a gap on his pursuers. Thanks to the victory in Jerez, the Cervera rider returns to the top of the world rankings with a one-point advantage over Rins.

These are the words of Marc Marquez: “I knew it would be a difficult race, but when I saw the sun I knew it would be my race. I wanted to do a race like this, to show that after Austin I did a reset. I ran my race, I fought against my times. I was alone, I didn't care who was behind me. In the first 5 laps I wasn't calm with Morbidelli behind. I was afraid of falling. Then I saw that little by little I was able to move away. Suzuki is here with us now, I've been saying this since the Malaysian tests. Rins has no pressers so everything goes well for him, he is definitely an opponent for the world championship. If I feel good on the bike I prefer races like today's, without having to fight. We understood Austin's problem and solved it. There will come some circuits where we will have to run on the defensive. Did the other Honda riders finish that far behind? I'm tired of seeing people saying that I win just because I have the Honda. I win because I have a good team and I have the right confidence. In my opinion there is no such thing as the perfect bike or the perfect rider. I feel good on the bike and I do everything I can. Now we are first in the championships but the championship is still long.”
