Left with a bitter taste after Texas, where his perfect run of five straight wins ended in a crash from the lead, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez is r🔯eady "to get back to work" in Qatar this weekend.

The COTA tumble, when Marquez cut too much kerb while holding a safe advanta𒁏ge over team-mate Francesco Bagnaia, also cost him the world championship lead by one point to younger brother Alex Marquez.

“Closing a weekend that has been practically perfect until that point with a cr♓ash is something that leaves a bitter taste,” Marc said ahead of this weekend.

“It’s a shame, it was a fraction of a se♔cond and we need to get ba🌃ck to work and continue to stay focused."

On paper, Qatar is not an ideal venue for Marquez to regain dominance, having only a single previous MotoGP win to his name.

That came back in 2014, at t💜he start of Marquez’s second premier-class season.

To put t▨hat into perspective, Valentino Rossi, Jorge Lorenzo and Andrea Dovizioso - all long retired - have won more re✨cently in Qatar than Marc Marquez.

But while Marquez’s Honda was losing competitiveness, h🌌e’ll return on the factory version of a bike - the Ducati Desmosedici - that has won the past five Lusail races in a♒ row (including Sprints).

“We h꧟ave great potential, Ducati has always been competitive on thi🀅s track and we can do well,” said Marquez, who finished fourth (GP) and fifth (Sprint) on his Ducati debut for Gresini in the 2024 season opener.

Bagnaia, who won last year’s Qatar MotoGP, isও eleven point﷽s behind Marc Marquez heading into this weekend.
