MotoGP | Qatar GP Qualifying: Marc Marquez, “I'm very happy with the result”

MotoGP Gp Qatar Honda Repsol Qualifying – Qatar, together with Sepang, is one of the circuits that Marc Marquez likes least; precisely for this reason the first row obtained in the Losail qualifying takes on a particular value for the reigning Honda champion. Here's what the Repsol Honda Team standard bearer had to say.

“I am very happy with the result given that we worked a lot during the pre-season and we worked a lot here, a track which, together with Sepang, is probably one of the least suitable circuits for me. Today was the first real "time attack" and we were there, and we are on the front row and this is a source of satisfaction, given that we normally struggle a lot here – said Marc Marquez – Our goal was the front row, we have it 'we did it and for us it's like a pole! Johann (Zarco, ed.) drove incredibly, he was one step ahead of us. In any case, the race will be hard and long, but we will try to be consistent and try to manage the laps in the best possible way.”
