But what about Marquez’s own title aspirations?

After three nightmare years he has quit Honda and will debut 𒅌for Gresini Ducati, riding a GP23, at the season-opener in Qatar on March 8-10.

He confessed: “I am at♛ the level of bei♌ng able to fight for it, which is the most important thing."

Marquez said about the postseason Valencia test when he rode his new bike for the first time: “I was very nerv🀅ous.

“I had been on the ♎same bike for ten years and, as much as🐷 the bike seemed to be going well, I had that concern of seeing if I would know how to do it, if I could go fast, if I would adapt well...

“No matter how much you want to work on getting away from the expectat☂ion, seeing so many cameras when you leave the box impresses you.

𒈔His smile, delivered after his first run on the Ducati, sent the🔜 paddock into a frenzy.

“It was a smile of 'th💝ank goodness I went out and it went well’.

"I have changed brands and 🍬there is a lot of excitement from people.

“They tell me: 'You'🌃re going to win t💜he world championship!'

“I tell them that I haven't ꧟won a rac💫e in two years.

“If I haven't won a race in two years I can'🅠t expect to sweep, I can't expect to win a champi𒆙onship, first I have to build.”
