Fastest on his GP24 debut in last November’s Barcelona test, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Marquez repeated the feat by ruling the timesheets at the end of the three-day Sepang MotoGP test.

But Marquez wasn’t only quick over a single lap.

In a performance that will prompt Ducati to question the effectiveness of the latest GP25 parts - and perhaps even revert to the GP24 engine - Alex also beat the 10-lap Sprint sim✤ulation pace by factory stars Francesco Bagnaia and, his brother, Marc Marquez.

“Really positive third day,” Alex grinned. “The fir🐭st two were really good, but this one was even better. Overall, we did a really g﷽reat job.

“The one lap is always important, because to be there with a time attack ꦿ[means] the bike is responding when you are demanding and asking for more from it.

“But especially, the rhythm that we 𒆙have. The Sprint simulation was 🌳super good.”

Alex had finished ꦗ5.6s beh💫ind Marc as a team-mate on GP23s in last November’s Malaysian Grand Prix Sprint.

This time he was 0.2s quicker than🐠 Marc at the end of 10 laps, on the GP24.

Asked if he was happier with the Sprint simulatꦿion than leading the one-lap timesheets, Alex replied:

“Yeah! I was in the box and I saw Pecco’s [simulation]. Later on 𒉰I saw Marc’s and I said ‘he’s pushing!’ It was super fast. So I said, ‘Okay I need to go for it’.

“So I pushed 🐽hard. We were really close 🦂and in the end, after 10 laps, I was 0.2 faster than him!”

Marc ‘congratu🔯lated’ his brother with ꦇa middle finger on his return to the pits, repeating the ongoing joke from Barcelona about which brother will finish ahead.

“It's nice to make a simulation and be constant and fast,” Alex ad𓂃ded.

“Everything l🅺ooks nice, but it’s Sepang. I love this track and I've always been fast here.”

He joked: “If we can make a world champi💝onship here, all 22 races, it would be perfect for me!

“But we were first also ಞin Montmelo. We were solid there. Thailand is a track that I quit👍e like also so we'll see how we are there and how fast the factory [guys] put everything together.

“When all the factories put everything together, fr🦂om all the 100 pieces that they are trying, we’ll see where we are.

“So keepꦑ calm, go to Thailand to💎 see how we are there.”

But the 28-year-old admitted his confidence𒊎 is already sky-high on the GP24, compared to last year’s woes with thܫe GP23.

“With the ‘23, fr🐻om 0 t🌃o 10, the confidence was 7, always. With this [GP24] it’s 9, so this is important,” he said.

“We struggled a lot last year with the 23 bike but also when you're stru🧔ggling, you learn much more. So all the things we learned last year will be a good tool for us to make 2025 great.”

Agreeing that the GP24 is the best MotoGP bike he’s ridden, Marquez explai💎ned:&🍷nbsp;

“The GP22 als♚o was super cool. So it looks like [the GP24] is the sister ౠor the brother - however you want to say it - of the GP22 and it’s super nice to ride.”

Alex celebrated two podiums, a pole🤪 and a Sprint victory on the GP22.

Franco Morbidelli backed up Marquez’s GP24 performances with fourth on the Sepang timesheets, although the Italian’s Sprint simulation wa🎀s a long way off the #73.

Marquez’s rookie team-mate Fermin Aღldeguer was 11th fastest with a Sprint run averaging 1m 58.580s versus the 1m 57.901s by Alex.

Marc Marquez’s average pace during his Sprintꦫ sim was 1m 57.930s and Bagnaia 58.243s, on the factory-spec GP25s.

The Buriram test takes🐬 place on Wednesday and Thursday.
