The “tactic genius” of Marc Marquez has been feted after he took command of the MotoGP championsh♎ip race.

Marquez is now 93 points - an ominous total - ahead of third-placed 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Pecco Bagnaia, his factory Ducati teammate.

Gresini’s Alex Marquez is his older brother’s closest competitiಞꦅon in the title scrap heading into Mugello next weekend.

But 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez’s ability to shake off two errors - at COTA and Jerez - earlier this se🎀ason to control last week’s Aragon MotoGP was a surefire sign that he has an ir🐻on grip over the championship, it has been claimed.

“H🍨e spoke about it all weekend - I think there’s an element of him being rattled by t෴hese mistakes,” Lewis Duncan told the Crash MotoGP podcast.

“He said ‘Ducati understand the mistakes’ but he must not be super sure, because his feeling with the bike was 🍨good.

“It was a real mental hurdle to get over, like Jorge Martin in I♊ndonesia last year. He crashed in the sprint, thought about it, and managed to overcome it.

“It feels like a big hurdle has been surmounted here. Aragon is a strong circui𓆏t for him but so was COTA.

“As a factory rider he is tight-lipped about what has changed on the bike. It’s very hard to tell. It makes things com✃plicated to understand.

“Fundamentally, they’🥂ve gone back to something which gave him the feeling he had at the start of🐻 the season.

“When he’s like that - in Thailand, Argentina, Austin be�⭕�fore his crash - he’s two-and-a-half seconds up the road from Pecco.

“If he’s finally over the hurdle of making mistakes on Sunꦫdays, it’s another element that his rivals c🅷annot use. They can’t pressure him because he won’t crack.

“We are now entering a new phase in the championship. One ꦑwhere he will probably stretch his legs.

“I don’t think it will look particular🐲ly good for anyone who isn’t Marc Marquez!”

'Unpredictable' Marc Marquez a 'tactical genius'

Jordan Moreland added: “He chips away, waits for mistakes fo﷽r anyone chasing him, then it goes up 🐟and up and up…

“He figures it out eventually.”

Lewis Duncan continued: “Part of the problem is that it’s unpredictable what he’s✨ going to do.

“The riders say on Friday that he is a step ahead so we assume h🥂e will lead from the front. But we have the sprint, and Alex Marquez is in front. There’s a chance to do something…

“He pushes, he chews up the tyres, and Marc co🐈mes throug🍷h anyway…

“Instead of finishing second, [Alex] finishes third🐼🐬.

“That’s the real tactical genius of Marc. He is able to adapt on the fly, to💛 the point where others think a door has opened so they change how they’re riding completely, then get stung even more.

“It’s a hard one to battle wi𒊎th, and they know that.

“There isn’t much more that they can do.”

A brief problem with front end feeling of his Ducati GP25 at Silverstone wa🔥s shaken off by Marquez at Aragon.

He hasಞ adapted better to this year’s Desmosedici than teammate Bagnaia, whose feeling has been lacking all year despite a slightly resurgence at Ar꧑agon.

Marquez ꦓis hunting for 🎉a ninth world title in total this year, his first with the factory Ducati team.
