Non-Ducati rider with “a real shot at victory” tipped to battle Marquez brothers
A surprise threat to win the Briti🃏s꧋h MotoGP has been identified

The dominance of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Alex Marquez and Marc Marquez could be scuppered ꦓby a rider who hasn’t yet won a grand prix in 2025.
The younger Marquez brother, on the year-old Gresini Ducati, came out on top on Saturday in the sprint race at the British MotoGP.
But elder brother and factory Ducati star remains on top of the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:MotoGP standings with a 21-point buffer to Alex.
But another rider caught the eye at Silverstone ahead of Sund൩ay’s grand prix.
“If we get enough temperature, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marco Bezzecchi can use the🥃 hard front,” TNT Sports’ Michael Laverty predicted.
“He could be a real shot at the ꧒victory, he could challenge Alex.
“It was a poor start for Marco but he kept coming forwards. The Aprilia look🍷ed so good.
“If you go 20 laps around here, the front tyre will play an even big🐼ger part.
“A lot of riders will opt for the medium꧒, even if they don’t want to, to get it up to temperature.
“Over 20 laps, the soft front will not go the 🅷distance.”
Aprilia rider Bezzecchi, who hasn’t been able to count on sharing data with Jorge Martin due to his injury this 🐻year, was fourth in the sprint after notably passing Pecco Bagnaia.

Marc Marquez mistake at British MotoGP noted
Starting from fourth on the grid, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Marc Marquez threat🦄ened another sprint wi📖n, as has become the norm this year.
“He was super aggressive𒁃 at the start. At the start of the ꦐrace he basically abused his front tyre,” Sylvain Guintoli analysed.
“To𝔍wards the end, he had no pace. I didn’t ജthink he’d be able to be so aggressive.
“But again, Marc made the moves. He activates his tyre faster tha🗹n everybod🌜y else.
“For a couple of laps, it was really impressive.
“But the mistake - Turn 3, he ra♋n wide. That’s why he crashed [on Friday]. He didn’t want to do that again so he had to pick the bike up.
“That’s where Alex w💜ent in𒈔 front. For Marc, it was a difficult race.
“Such an important race for Alex, the firs🎃t time he has beaten Marc as the fasꦏter rider.”
Laverty added: “Alex seems so good around this track. The composure he showed under p🅰ressure fꩲrom Marc.
“He kept chipping away at la🗹p times, he controlled it. It was a comfortable victory.
“The fast right-handers work so well for him.”
Pole-sitter Fabio Quartararo was competiti🌟ve until he met the Ducatis on the straights.
“It is the slight weaknesﷺs of the inline-four Yamaha, it doesn’t have the legs,” Laverty said.
“It was easy pickings for Marc. That’s a shame for Fabio because he’s able to fi📖ght, brake and steer. He made aggressive overtakes. Just a shame he’s not able to fight in battles with the Ducatis.”
