Non-Ducati rider with “a real shot at victory” tipped to battle Marquez brothers
A surprise threat to win the Briti👍sh MotoGP 🧔has been identified

The dominance of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Marquez and Marc Marquez could be scuppered by a rider who hasn’t yet won a grand prix in 2025𓆏.
The younger Marquez brother, on the year-old Gresini Ducati, came out on top on Saturday in the sprint race at the British MotoGP.
But elder brother and factory Ducati star remains on top of the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:MotoGP standings with a 21-point buffer to Alex.
But another rider caught the eye at Silve♑rstone ahead of Sunday’s grand pr𒁏ix.
“If we get enough temperature, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marco Bezzecchi can use the hard front,” 𒉰TNT Sports’ Michael Laverty predicted.
“He could be a real shot at t𒆙he victory, he could challenge Alex.
“It was a poor start for Marco but he kept coming forwards. The Aprilia lo🥂oked so good.
“If you go 20 laps around here, the front tyre will play an even bigger pa�🌌�rt.
“A lot of ride🐼rs will opt for the medium, even if they don’t want to, to get it up ཧto temperature.
“Over 20 🔯laps, the soft front will not go the distance.”
Aprilia rider Bezzecchi, who hasn’t been able to count on sharing data with Jorge Martin due to his 🌺injury this year, was fourth in the sprint after no🐼tably passing Pecco Bagnaia.

Marc Marquez mistake at British MotoGP noted
Starting from fourth on the grid, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez 𒆙threatened another sprint win, as has become the norm this year.
“He was super aggressive at the start. At the st🍸art of the race he basic🧸ally abused his front tyre,” Sylvain Guintoli analysed.
“Towards t༒he end, he had no pඣace. I didn’t think he’d be able to be so aggressive.
“But again, Marc made the moves. He activates h🌱is tyre faster tꦆhan everybody else.
“For a couple of laps, it was really impressive.
“But the mistake - Turn 3, he ran wide. That’s why he crashed [on Friday]. He didn’t wa🍸nt to do that again so he had to pick the bike up.
“That’s w🎉here Alex went in front. For Marc, ꦆit was a difficult race.
“Such an important race for Alex, the first time he has beaten Marc as the 🌳faster rider.”
Laverty added: “Alex seems so good around this track. The composure he shoꦗ꧅wed under pressure from Marc.
“He kept chipping away at lap times, he controlled it. It was a comfortab♏le victory.
“The fast right-handers work so well for him.”
Pole-sitter Fabio Quartararo was comp💦etitive until he met tꦕhe Ducatis on the straights.
“It is the slight weakness of the inline-four Yamah♔a, it does♛n’t have the legs,” Laverty said.
“It was easy pickings for Marc. That’s a shame for Fabio because he’s able to fight, br♐ake and steer. He made aggressive overta𒆙kes. Just a shame he’s not able to fight in battles with the Ducatis.”
