• German MotoGP, Sachseꦇnring - Friday Practice Results

Marquez, Honda’s second-in-command Shinji Aoyama, and HRC president ✨Koji Watanabe held a private meeting at Mugello, reacti👍ng to the MotoGP’s team dreadful weekend.

The star Repsol Honda rider has arrived for the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:German MotoGP 🐼buoyed by the discussions - although he is demanding ღaction.

“They have not apologised to me and I do n🌼ot expect them to either,” Marquez told .

“Because nobody wants to do a bad project.

“Sometimes it will turn out better and other times worse, but it is true that we have been st🌳agnant for a few years. 

“They are aware that t💛here is a problem and hopefully we will find the sol🔜ution. A solution as soon as possible.”

Marquez’s newfound optim🐼ism comes from the fact that the Honda bosses took time t✱o listen to his problems.

“We had an important meeting, not 🧸for the present, but for the immediate future,” he said. 

“Now to work for next year. I t🌼hink the meeting was productive and I am grateful that a big boss from Honda and HRC proposed the meeting, sa♑t down with me and are interested in how to improve the project. 

“The meeting went very well and the o🎶nly thing missing is prac🌞tice.”

Can anything be done to salvage the 2023 bike?

“No,” M💙arquez said. “This year is what there is and that's it. 

“We are trying to improve, but next year is not created from one daꦿy to the nex⭕t. 

“It is created from this year and they know that I am willing to try things during a weekend, although with this new format🅷 it is not ideal. 

“But above all it is good ꦉthat the president and vice president know🥀 first-hand what is happening, come to the circuit and see what is happening. 

“Becaus🅘e sometimes you don't know what comes to them. 

“So for my partꦺ, 🌳delighted to have told them first-hand my feelings.”

Marquez had previously said that his faith in Honda also stems from their current success in F1, where th🍸ey provi🙈de the engines for Red Bull’s dominant cars.

He now insists that he 💖isn’t wor💟ried Honda are more focused on four wheels rather than two.

“I have never felt that they have not opted for mo🍸torcycle😼s,” he said. 

ꦛ“In fact, the commitment of the brand is the same since I 𒁃joined ten years ago. 

“I see them bringing little thin𓃲gs t🥀hat sometimes work and other times don't. 

“I don't see that they don't show interest, otherwise the vice presidenꦑt of Honda Motor wouldn't come, and the president of HRC is alwa𝓀ys behind everything. 

“Since last year the car and motorcycle departments have joined 🦹forces and hopefully that can help us in the project.”

Marquez emerging pleased from last weekend’s meeting can only b🍬ode well for his much-discussed long-term future.

He is contracted on a big-money💮 deal until the end of 2024, but his plans beyond that could d🍷epend on the competitiveness of the bikes on offer.

“🍸The s🐬trongest rider is the one who wins and now I'm not winning,” he said. 

“I still feel fast, competitive, but I am 100% committed to the current project and looking to the future I will try to find the best sports project, which will be a winning project, and hopef🏅ully it will be with Honda.”

MotoGP champion Frances𝓰co Bagnaia labelled Marquez as the favourite for the German MotoGP at the Sachsenring, a circuit where he has won nine times in the pre🔯mier class.

“Not favourite, because we didn't arrive at the best moment, but it is a circuit that br🎃ings back good memories and I will try to fight꧟ to be on the podium. That is the goal,” he said.

“It would be good news for the tea🗹m, for the entire project, but the situation does not change from one day to ♈the next.”
