168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez has denied that he is the favourite to fight for victory in the opening round of MotoGP 2025 in Thailand despite a head-turning race simulatioꦜn on the last day of testing.

The 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:factory Ducati rider completed a 23-lap race simulation on ไThursday at the Buriram test in an average time o💜f 1m30.378s, which was half a second quicker than the all-time best grand prix lap at the venue from 2023.

Marquez also caused a sti🍬r with a sprint simulation at the Sepang test, while he topped both days at Buriram on the combined standings.

This has already led many to brand him favourite to open upꦓ the 2025ꦿ season with a win, though he still believes that title belongs to his team-mate Francesco Bagnaia.

“For me, the favourite is Pecco and I’m the secon🍌d one,” ꧅he said.

“Last year we finished the champions🍸hip like this.

“He fought for the championship for the ꦕlast four years, won two times.

“So♔, we are in the world championship, everyone is very fast. Testing is testing, but how many pre-seasons is one rider super-fast?

“So, we will try to find a good base. We found it, bu🅰t continue with a good balance that will be very important.

“And don’t forget [ඣJorge] Martin. Ok, he’s not here and when you don’t see the name you just forget.

“But he’s a world champion, a🎀nd as we sඣaw [Marco] Bezzecchi today with the Aprilia he was fast.”

Marc Marquez on Ducati engine decision

On the final day of testing, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Ducati confirmed it would be racing ꦫwith its 2024 engine for the next two years having not been able to make clear gains with the 2025 s﷽pec.

On th🌺e decision, Marquez said: “I mean, of course, from the beginning I saw that, for me, it was two new bikes.

“So, f𓆏rom the b🐓eginning I saw that the balance of the ’24 was super good.

“But then we kept working a lot on the ’25 to understand if we can manage the weak points, because t💎here was some very strong points.

“But then trying the bike in thre✱e different race tracks, we understood… well, more than understand, I think ꩵDucati took a smart decision to stay calm and be with the 2024 base, the engine, because then we have some small new things that we introduced here, we introduce at the races.

“But the bike is worki♋ng well and was no reason to take a risk to homologate an engine that we don’t know for the next two year꧅s.”

Marq♏uez also downplayed his impressive race run on the final day of testing, highlighting that not many did full distances like he did and that his brother Alex Marquez had a bike issue on his.

“I think not a lot of people did a long race, but it was one of m🌸ꦐy targets,” he explained.

“I know that it is boring, but it was a motivation🌠 there against my brother because is is fast also and he had a small problem.

“But it was li💦ke ‘ok, we do it different, not together, and then at the end we compare’. And we did it, because at the end he is riding in ꧅a very good way.

“I had a big list on technical side and o🧔n performance side and on my side of riding style, and we achieved everything. So, I’m ready to start the season.”
