Marc Márquez’s second place finish yesterday left many people excited but the truth is that the rider mentioned he is not currently at the same level as other riders.
To the journalists present in Austin, the Gresini Racing rider said that the podium in the long race is already quite positive and that he would ‘sign immediately’, however, he asked for some realism in the analysis of his possibilities at the moment: ‘If you tell me I will cross the finish line in third place, I sign immediately. This is my job, but we also have to be realistic; obviously I will fight to win, but that is a dream, the reality is that Viñales and Martín are very strong and very fast’.
In addition to the opponents, there are others that caught #93’s attention: ‘We cannot forget about Bagnaia, Acosta, and Bastianini, who are also very fast. We will have to see the temperatures for the race and choose the correct tires’.
