The eight-time world champion - winless🐬 since Misano 2021 - said he explains the weak points when riding and racing the RC213V, but leaves it to HRC to decide on the technical solut🉐ions.

Marquez believes the RCV’s main flaws are “stopping on the brakes and the acceleration side“ but “I d🐽🥂on't know if it's the chassis, the aerodynamics, the engine, or a combination of everything.

“This is something that I said already last year - and I keep the same mood [method] - I say [to ܫ𒈔HRC] where I'm losing, not how to improve. Because I'm not an engineer.

“So I𒅌'm trying my best on the track, I'm trying to survive in the races where I suffer, I try to be fast in one lap, I try to find a way to be consistent in the race.

“But then I stop in the box, I say the weak points, where we are losing more, where is worse, and then the engin🐻eers must think h💧ow to improve.”

The 30-year-old Spaniard spent much of the recent French M✃otoGP races fighting against Ducatis and KTMs.

“It's so difficult to fight against the others, especially💎 Du🦋catis, because they overtake you on the straight, [but] you need to overtake on the corners, taking risks, using the tyres more.”

Le Mans, where Marquez finished fifth in the Sprint before crashing out🉐 of a podium battle against a p𒆙air of Pramac Ducatis late in the grand prix, also saw the race debut of Honda's new Kalex chassis.

“Turning, mid-corner, I prefer my [previous Honda] one. Going in. It's one of my strong points, going iꦬn fast. But this doesn't mean it's the fastest way, or a faster way than the other one,” Marquez said of the difference he feels on track.

“It looks like with the Kalex you 🌃need to adapt a bit the riding style, you need to go in fast also in the corner, but it's not necessary to push... you can do a 😼few more mistakes. You can go wide, come back.

☂“With the other [Honda] one, it's so critical, and it's so difficult to understand the front tyre. With this [Kalex] one it looks like you have more warnings, but still we need to understand, because our weak point is s⛦till stopping on the brakes and the acceleration side. “

Marquez, who missed three rounds due to a hand fracture at the Portimao season opener, is yet to finish a grand prix race this season. His 12 points to date 🍒have come from third (Portimao) and fifth (Le Mans) in the Sprints.

LCR𓃲’s Alex Rins, who ended Honda’s 18-month victory drought at COTA, is currently the top Honda rider in tenth overall. Rins’ team-mate Takaak💫i Nakagami is 17th with Marquez’s new team-mate Joan Mir 21st.

The five grand prix races this season have been won▨ by Ducati (4) and Honda (1), with the Sprint wins di🔜vided between Ducati (3) and KTM (2).

Honda is fourth in the constructors’ standings - behind Ducati, KTM and 💎Aprilia, and ahead of only Yamaha.
