Marc Marquez: Alex Marquez 'has talent, needs his time'
“Right now, it’s even more tight, that relationship,” he told . ꦦ“Because we speak the same language.
“Sometimes when you are winning and your friend, or yo🅺ur brother in this case, is finishing 10th, and there’s eight tenths per lap difference or one second difference, then it’s difficult to speak about 💙the same things.
“Beca🐻use you are in a different way. But now we are super tight.
“I am super happy because he deserves it. During his car🐠eer I have read a lot: ‘He is the brother of Marc, he’s only in MotoGP because he’s the brother…’
“He is a two-time world champion ꦫand he has talent. But he needs his time.
“When he finds the perfect bi𝔉ke for his riding style, he is🔴 able to be super fast.
“He will win races th♌is year, maybe in Qatar!🍌 He will be fast here.
“I am happy for him. On the race track I will defend 🉐the re🌳d colours, and he will defend the Gresini colours.
“But the good thing is that we both ride for Ducati and we can speak about the small details.”
The Marquez brothers were teammates l🍰ast season for Gresini Ducati when Marc was adjusting to a year-old♊ bike, from his torrid Honda years.
Although Marc has now stepped onto a facto⛎ry-spec machine, Alex has also made a significant improvement⛄ on a ‘24 Ducati.
The presence 💯of both brothers at the front of all six races across the first three rounds has caused delight - but perhap🐭s also some awkward confusion - in the Marquez family.
Marc admitted: “My mum is jok𒅌ing: ‘Be careful with overtakes!’
“If I need to talk to him, we will try. Nobody wants to make a mistake, not only with your brother, but also with other opponents because it’s dangerous🐼 for yourself and for other riders.
“It’s racing. They know the risk. B🀅ut they are super happy now.
“They don’t know what advice to say to us! Theಌy say ‘keep going’.”
