168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez was ‘sandbagging’ during the preseason Sepang test, claims Simoᩚᩚ💟ᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚn Crafar.

The Gresini Ducati rider was far more low-key during the three day test than he was in Valencia last yea💧r, when he sto🃏le the show.

But there are signs from within the paddock that Marquez might have been holdinﷺg back his true potenti🌳al on his new bike.

Ex-racer and now MotoGP broadcaster Crafar watched Marquez in Sepang: “He’s not got parts to test because he’s in a satellite team. But he🃏’s getting to know t﷽he GP23.

“He’s changing the bike a lot. It’s goꦅing up and down.

“He’s exploring, which is what𝓡 testing is for. He’s getting to know what he likes.

“ꩲSomething I noticed; the riders that ar𝐆e up the top, they’ll head out on a soft rear, bang, do the time.

“The next run they do? They’ve taken so much life out of it, they’re no longer in the 57s, they’re in ﷺthe 58s. Then in the 59s.

“Marc hasn’t been doing time attacks, he’s been keeping it in the 58s. He’s doing runs out there, keeping itജ consistent.

“So, my impression, is that he’s testing. When I go out on track, the only place where he’s aggressive - the Marc we know - is in brakin🌜g.

“He looks impressꦐive! I predict he’s going to 🥃be the hardest Ducati rider in the braking zone this year.

“Pecco has been, then h🔯e’s been threatened by Jorge Martin🍌 and Enea Bastianini.

“But I think D✃ucati will have a new bra🐻king area champion!

“The rest, he has been do🌠ing 𓃲it smoothly and consistently.

“The last turn, he isꦿ going consistently wide. It’s not the sort of thing t🍰hat an eight-time world champion does.

“That, to me, p🏅oints to ꧅sandbagging a little. Losing time consistently on one corner.

“He knows that he can just go, bang! And the t🐷ime will g♔o, when he wants it, when he can put the rest together.

“It’s my gut feeling watching.

“It doesn’t mean that I think he’ll win the first race🦩 yet. But we haven’t seen what he can really do.

“He’s working hard to make friend🐟s with this bike. He’s trying everything with Frankie Carched﷽i, from positions on the bike to geometry settings.”

Marquez was 14th-fastest on Day 2 of the preseason Sepang, which Crafar w🤡as commenting on.

He was ninth on a tricky Day 1 which included technical issues. A🍃nd sixth on Day 3.

But his sprint simulations caught the eye.

Marquez did 10 laps with an average time of 1m 59.059s. Both Marc and his brother Alex posted faster times than Alex’s winning time in last season’s Sepang sprint race🅰.

Pramac’s Jorge Martin has already claimed Marquez will fight for victory in the season-ope𒁏ning Qatar MotoGP on March 8-10.
