VR46 rider Bezzecchi saw his Valencia MotoGP season-finale come to a p🍬remature♛ end due to contact from Marquez which left him irate.

Marquez, in his final ra🧔ce for Repsol Honda, also crashed out after he was clattered by Jorge Martin.

But the incident between Bezzecchi and Marquez left a partic𓂃ularly sour taste.

"I'm not going to waste my time with this charac꧋ter, s🍸o next,” Marquez told .

An an✤gry Bezzecchi reacted to DAZN: "Marquez dec🌳ided to end my race in the third corner. 

“He did the same thing he did to me in Thailand. He hit💦 me on the back. The problem is that this time he hit me much harder, and I hurt my shoulders and on my left foot. 

“His style doesn't deserve much explanation.

“They decided not to show the replay because the action was ver🌄y dirty. It's Marquez,💞 so no one can touch him. 

“They investigate, but they don't do anything. The stewards neꦛver touch Marc. He is the dirtiest rider﷽ in MotoGP.

Bezzecchi went to Marquez’s motorhome after the race to seek an ex🦩𝕴planation for the manoeuvre which wiped him out, but was left unimpressed.

"I asked him why he decided to throw me and, as always, he pretend🌳ed that he had not seen me,” Bezzecchi said. 

“But with the blow hﷺe gave me, it is really, really difficult for him not to have seen me. 

“It already ꦐhurt me even before I fell, from the blow he gave me on the back. But I know that, 🎉unfortunately, this is the case. 

“There are riders who are ಞa little more correct, riders a little less correct. I🏅 am one of those who does not complain about fights, even if I want to when another comes towards me. 

“In Thailand, in fact, Marquez came straight towards me and I didn't say a🍎nything to him at all, because fights are fights, that's it. 

“But when yo🐻u throw another rider, in my opinion, it's too much. 

“The stewards, obviously, have not done anything, as always. And that's i♚t, unfortunately the season has ended like this.”

Bezzecchi tried to spea🐻k to the stewards about the coll🅘ision, which they deemed to be a racing incident.

"Yes, I tried to talk to the stewards, but they didn't have tꦫime to talk to me,” the VR46 rider said. 

“So, in the end, I couldn't talk to them. An꧋d I had to go to talk to M🍨arquez. 

“At least I൲ wanted to clarify it, but, obviously,👍 there has been no way to clarify it with him. It's a shame, but... amen."

The simmering rivalry perfectly tees up the 2024 MotoGP season when Bezzecchi, having rejected Pramac 💎to stay at VR46, and Marquez, who will leave Honda for Gresini, will both ride year-old Ducatis.
