Marc Marquez is not hiding
Already quite critical of the Honda tested in Sepang in recent days, Marc Marquez confirms all his doubts and doesn’t hide them at all even at the end of the three-day test, raising a new cry of alarm.
“We have the same problems as last year – the eight-time world champion said, reported by ‘Marca’ -. The top speed isn’t bad, but it takes us too long to get there, it’s a question of traction. In Europe , with the short straights, it will be difficult for us. And in braking at high speed we need more stability: in the first corner we lose a tenth and a half or two compared to the Ducatis”.
“We started with four bikes, three on the second day. Today we had two bikes and in the afternoon I only had one – added Marquez -. But this isn’t the bike I need to start the World Championship, the one we chose is very similar to that of Valencia, with the same problems. It would be time to solve those problems, even if I don’t know how.”
