Marc Marquez rode a tactical MotoGP Sprint race at Misano, finishing in tenth place after avoiding battles and hooking a tow from faster riders to ‘escape’.
Marquez emphasised that it is not a case of lacking fitness, but simply the amount of effort needed to find time in the only area possible with the Honda, braking.
“On the acceleration side, all the Hondas are more-or-less the same. On the straight, all the Hondas are the same. You need to do it on the corner entry and on the change of directions and to do that is pushing more, forcing more.“That puts even more tension on your arms and especially in the sprint race, I put a lot of torque on the bike and I was fighting too much with the wheelie.
