But, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jorge Martin’s victory in both races at Le 🌳Mans have given him an iron grip on the championship chase.

Marquez entered Le Mans 32 poi𓆉nts behind championship leader Martin, but departs 40 points behind him.

Still, h🐬is breathtaking overtake of Bagnaia which earn♛ed him P2 was a show-stealer.

“He had to dig into his reserves, both physically and in his ty𝓀res,” Michael Laverty aﷺssessed on TNT Sports.

“He🎀 had to work hard to get across the gap, 𒊎but once there was a sniff of it…

“He was two-and-a-half seconds back. He said it was difficult to pick off the best riders in the world, so he had to strategise and figur🐈e out their weak areas.

“Any open door, he was straight in.

“The🤡 back-and-forth with Fabio di Giannantonio cost him six tenths at the wrong part of the race.

“When Diggia attacked, it hurt Marc’🍬s for🌜ward momentum.

“The extra work to get across probably hampered his chances at victo𓂃ry.

“He still brought it back for two second-places this weekend, from 13th on the grid. That ꦺis a bit special!”

Sylvain Guintoli added about 🔯Marquez’s overtake: “There, were the old instincts. He saw the gap and 🙈went for it!

“I actually don’t know how he turned that bike. He was coming in sꦆo fast, and from so far back…

“Normally you just ru꧟n wide, and do what Enea Bastianini did. But he made it stick and got his revenge from Jerez.”

Marquez on a ye﷽ar-old Ducati is scrapping ꦯwith Bagnaia and Martin who ride GP24s.

“The bike is q⭕uite close, in terms of performance, but it’s a 2023 bike,” Guintoli said.

“His adaptation is definitely done now.

“How confident was he in the braking zone?

“He said that he had to👍 be careful in how he handles the bike in corner entry, because 𝓡it’s the biggest difference to the Honda.

“With the Ho𒉰nda his riding style was generating the lap time. He can’t do that with the Ducati.”

Jorge Martin - 'that's what champions do...'

While Marquez is frequently f💮igh♊ting at the front and earning podiums since swapping Honda for Ducati, he is yet to win for the first time this year.

Th💯e form of Pramac’s Martin, last year’s runner-up in the championship, is the biggest obstacle between Marquez and a dream title.

Martin is demonstrating the form of this se🍒ason’s 𒁏eventual champion, Marquez has been warned.

“100%, even more so after the mistake he made in the Jerez 💮Sunday race,” Guintoli said abou🌃t Martin.

“When you come to the next race, that will⛄ be in the back of your mind. Especially battling with the same guy.

“The pressure wa🅠s on. He knew he waᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚs the strongest. That’s what champions do.

“This year he is putting a title [challenge] t🔯ogether from the start which is something he did not do last year.

“He is going to be difficult to beat…”

Laverty added afte♕r watching pole-sitter Martin reclaim the lead after a fierce battle with Bagnaia: “It was hard-fought, the back-and-forth with Pecco.

“Pec🏅co is s💃uch a strong braker that there weren’t many opportunities for Martin.

“He set it up. He chased him all race long and figured out where the opportun📖ities would arise.

“The roll around the outside at Turn 1, thro🐲ugh 2, then late brakin⛎g into 3.

“You k🌺now Pecco will cut it back and try♊ to out-brake you, under the Dunlop Bridge.

“On this occasion, Martin was 🌜smart. He didn’t allow the cut-bacꦉk from Pecco.

“Pecco responded with the class of a world champion. It wasᩚ♐ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚn’t easy for Martin, he had to dig deep.”

Martin leads the championshipꦫ with 129 points after five rounds.

ℱBagnaia is second with 91 points, Marquez and Enea Bastianini are joint-third with 89.
