Keen to prov♐i♍de Marquez with a bike capable of challenging Ducati and Aprilia, both of whom dominated the opening day of action, Honda supplied four different bikes to Marquez’s side of the garage, although differences were small, said the Spaniard.
"We had many bikes in the garage. Not very different, they are quite similar," added Marquez. "Between one ꦗthere is a big difference but we started the day with more-or-less the base from Valencia and then we started working through some concepts and some things.
"It’s difficult sometimes in the pre-seaon because every run is quite a big difference on the bike. But step-by-step I feel good on the bike, but for me, it was a positive day regarding my physical condition because I feel much better than last🎃 year. This was very important.
"About the new bike, the feeling is that the new concept is more-or-less like Valencia. Tomorrow we will start wor🔥king and also in Portimaoꦬ I think something new will arrive.
"Let’s ♉see. We need to keep working in our garage, get all the information a☂nd improve tenth-by-tenth because still we are far from the top riders."
Marquez was by far the quickest Honda rider after finishing four tenths clear of new team-mate Joan Mir.

However, Marquez was close to a second do🐟wn on Bezzecchi’s time as Ducati had seven bikes inside the top ten positions.
A result that follows a similar theme from last season means Honda will need to be e🃏fficient in their development of the RC213V, which Marquez knows can come from providing t𒆙he right sort of feedback.
Marquez added: "Of course I expect new ideas. And also to try and understand where we are. I will and I give my comments about thꦫe bike.
"I can say what I ꧅need, I can say what I feel and I can say where we are losing but then the guys are the ones to give the solutions or the ideas."
