Fastest on his GP24 debut in last November’s Barcelona test, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Marquez repeated the feat by ruling the timesheets at the end of the three-day Sepang MotoGP test.

But Marquez wasn’t only quick over a single lap.

In a performance that will prompt Ducati to question the effectiveness of the latest G🍸P25 parts - and perhaps even revert to the GP24 engine - Alex also beat the 10-lap Sprint simulation pace by factory stars Francesco Bagnaia and, his brother, Marc Marquez.

“Real🅘ly positive third day,” Alex grinned. “The first two were really good, 🌸but this one was even better. Overall, we did a really great job.

“The one lap i﷽s always important, because to be there with a time attack [means] tꩵhe bike is responding when you are demanding and asking for more from it.

“But especially🌊, the rhythm that we have. The Sprint simulation was super good.”

Alex had fiꦚnished 5.6s behind Marc as a team-mate on GP23s in last November’s Malaysian Grand Prix Sꩵprint.

This time he was 0.2s quicker than Marc 💦at the end of 10 laps, on the GP24.

Asked if he was happie🍒r with the Spr🏅int simulation than leading the one-lap timesheets, Alex replied:

“🍨Yeah! I was in the box and I saw Pecco’s [simula𝐆tion]. Later on I saw Marc’s and I said ‘he’s pushing!’ It was super fast. So I said, ‘Okay I need to go for it’.

“So I pushed hard. We were really close and in the end, after 10 laps,♑ I was 0.2 faster than💫 him!”

Marc ‘congratulated’ his brother with a middle finger on his return to the pits, repeating the ongoing joke from Barcelona about which🍸 brother will finish ahead🐻.

“It's nice 𝓰to make a simulation and be constant and fast,” Alex added.

“🀅Everything looks nice, but it’s Sepang. I love this tra♊ck and I've always been fast here.”

He joked: “🍸If we can make a ꦿworld championship here, all 22 races, it would be perfect for me!

“But we were first also in Montmelo. We were solid there. Thailand i🔴s a track that I quite like also so we'll see how we are ther🎉e and how fast the factory [guys] put everything together.

“When all the factories put everything together, from all the 100 piec♑es that they are trying, we’ll see where we are.

“So keep calm, go to Thailand to see hꦏow we are there.”

But the 28-year-old admitted his confidence is already sky-high on the GP24, compared to last♉ year’s woes with the GP23.

“With the ‘23, from 0 to 10, the confidence was 7, always. With this [GP24] it’s 9, so this is impor👍tant,” he said.

“We༺ struggled a lot last year with the 23 bike but also when you're struggling, you learn much more. So all the things we learned last year will be a good tool for us to make 2025 great.”

Agreei𓄧ng that the GP24 is the best MotoGP bike he’s ridden, M💦arquez explained: 

“The GP22 also was super cool. So it looks like [the GP24] is the sister or the brother - however you want to say it - ꦇof the GP22 and it’s super nice to ride.”

Alex celebrated two podi🌠ums, a🔜 pole and a Sprint victory on the GP22.

F♛ranco Morbidelli backed up Marquez’s GP24 performances with fourth on the Sepang timeshe⛄ets, although the Italian’s Sprint simulation was a long way off the #73.

Marquez’s rookie team-mate Fermin Aldeguer was 11th fastest with a Sprint run averagin🍬g 1m 58.580s versus the 1m 57.901s by Alex.

Marc Marquez’s average pace during his Sprint sim was 1m 57.930s and Bagnaia 58.243s, on the factory-spe💝c GP25s.

The Burira🐠m test takes place on Wednesday and Thursday.
