“He’s phenomenal,” Michael Laverty said about Marquez on TNT Sports from th🌊e Le Mans paddock.

“You think back to his Moto𒁏2 days when he went from the back of the grid to the front in a race.

“It’s those decisive moments when the pack spans out. Heꦇ’s thinking on his feet.

“He is so spatially a🎃ware 🐽of where the gaps open up. He is able to react, he responds.

“There has never been a rider like it.”

Laverty assessed how Marquez clambered beyond sไo many rivals inside the opening laps: “So, he gets a pretty good jump.

“He rolls it a bit, at Turn 1 through 2. He opens the gap 𒀰to run down the outside of🐭 everyone.

“He stays on line, leans it aroundꦦ the outside. He’s𝓰 on the perfect line for Turn 4.”

Sylvain Guintoli replied: “You can tell that Marc had a plan. Everything w♔ent to plan.

“Where he took a risk was being slightly off line, releasing the brake and carrying the corner speed when every💎body gets bunched up, into Turn 3.

“It paid off but that was a massive risk for Marc, to go ar🧸ound the outside like that.

“If i🥀t goes wrong on the inside, you get cওollected!

“He had to. From 13th on the grid, if 🥀you hold position, it would take too m๊uch time to come back.

“It’s💙 one thing saying ‘♑I have got to take risks’ and it’s another thing to do it.

“The improvising… he’s got that instinct. You can tell what he’s thin🎶king, and what he’s trying to do.”

Marc Marquez's GP23 'a work in progress'

Marquez endured hi𒈔s worst🎐 Friday as a Ducati rider so far at Le Mans.

It meant he started Saturday by entering Q1. Marquez lost the front during qualify♕ing and, although he saved it, it meဣant beginning from 13th on the starting grid.

He will resume from 13th for Sunday’s granꦡd prix but his GP23 is inꦡ better working order after Friday.

“He’s been fast,” Laverty said after♒ the sprint race. “He’s been struggling to get🐬 the maximum out of it.

“I 🐼spoke to [his crew chief] Frankie Carchedi who said it’s a work in progress. They need to adjust the bike, from what they expect, at ever🤪y circuit.

“So it has taken them time.

“The unfortunate thing is there is only o⛄ne free session. The rest are timed. Then, you’ve got yellow flags thrown into the mix.

“He ended up on the back foot but, wheܫn the lights went ou🍸t, he delivered.

“Yes, the bike was working. But he was the man who made it h꧟appen.

“The decisive moves on the first lap were w꧙hꦺat made the race for him.”
