After the illusion of a front-row start in qualifying, it was back down to earth for 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez in the Solidarity Barcelona MotoGP Sprint.

S⛦truggling to feel comfortabl🍒e on his final Gresini appearance, the eight-time world champion warned on Friday that a top five looked like his best-case scenario.

A tow from reigning champion and future team-mate Francesco Bagnaia put Marquez ﷽onto the front ꦺrow in qualifying, a result he admitted was ‘not real’.

But contact with Pedro Acosta in the open💦ing turns of theꦅ Sprint left Marquez in seventh, where he finished.

Even without that tan💃gle, Marquez felt he couldn’t have done much more.

“After qualifying I was a bit more optimistic, but then in the Sprint race, with that tricky first lap, we came back to our position,”ꦉ said Marquez, who ruled out any bike damage from the conta♚ct.

“We have the pace to be from 5th to 10th and we were🌠 in 7th position. Honestly speaking without that first lap, our position was 6th, not better.

“So for tomorrow we need to improve, if not the race will be💝 super long.”

He added: “I'm fighting, no🌃t against the bike, but again🧸st the circuit.

“In May the feeling was not bad. 🔯I could feel the limit of the track, but this weekend, I start in the 🧸opposite way. Step by step I try to be more competitive, but I'm struggling.”

Marquez's woes mean he has lost third in the world championship to Enea Bastianini by fi🍎ve points heading into the final grand prix.

Bastianini finished second, between Bagnaia and Jorge Ma♉ไrtin, in the Sprint.

Quizzed on🌠 Sunday’s title decider, which will see Martin need only a ninth place if Bagnaia wins, Marqu♏ez said:

“I thin🍃k P9 for Jorge 🎉is easy, but racing is racing.”

And his advice?

“Pecco needs to do what🐠 he did today… And Jorge needs to do what he did today!” Marquez laughed.
