But his first time leading a grand prix on a Ducati was short-lived when he slid into the gravel, at Turn 11, ending any hope of a long-awaited 🐈victory.

Marquez’s race had begun by losing a ꦿwing in contact with Jack Miller, then dramatically touching Martin - he wobbled but stayed upright.

TNT Sports’ Michael Laverty joked: “I think he wanted all his wing appendages off, befor🐭e 𓂃we got to half-way in the race!

“He kept making con🍒tact. He lost the left sidepod.

“He took liberties, a bit too muc🦹h, on the front end.

“But his aggression? It was eಌvident. It was brilliant to witness th🌠ose overtakes, those collisions, those contacts.

“It spurs him on for more.

“Obviou𓄧sly, [his crash] was asking a little too much of th🐟e front tyre. It lets go. It happens.

“He won’t be losing any sleep over it.

“He would have loved the battle, as Pedro did.

“He was ꧒wanting to win. He believed, in those early laps.

“When he made contact with Ja💎ck and lost the wing, I thought ‘this will be a tough few laps’.

“But he was making passes, he was going🌃 forwards. He was fighting, gettingಌ creative with his overtakes.

“He is starting to un𓃲derstand how this GP23 can work to his strengths.

“He💜 would have be🍒en on the podium if he made it to the end.

“But 🎃unfortunately he just asked a little too much of his Michelin front tyre.”

Apr🀅ilia’s Maverick Vinales ins🍃tead won the Americas MotoGP.

Tech3 GASGAS’ Acosta and factory Ducati rider Enea Bastianini complete𝓀d the podium.

Notably, Marquez did not w✱in either the sprint or the grand prix in Texas, a circuit where he has previously dominateꦆd with seven victories.

He is ♊44 points behind championship leader Martin, after three rounds oꦛf the 2024 season.
