In the latest episode of Ducati Inside, Marc Marquez reflected on his demanding race weekend at the Lusail International Circuit. The primary focus remained on the high-tension incident involving Marco Bezzecchi during the Sprint race. Despite the contact forcing his airbag to trigger, the Ducati rider maintained control to secure victory.
Marquez maintained that his trajectory remained consistent throughout the race. "My airbag suddenly deployed in turn one. If you look at the helicopter footage, I was taking the exact same line every single lap," he explained regarding the collision that sparked significant paddock debate.
His Sprint success was underpinned by a tactical masterstroke from Gigi Dall’Igna. Following the red flag triggered by Francesco Bagnaia’s crash, the Ducati Corse chief advised him to switch to a fresh soft tire for the restart. "I would try the new soft tire, Marc," Dall’Igna advised. This decision proved pivotal, earning Marquez 12 crucial championship points.
During the Grand Prix, the dynamic shifted as Bezzecchi dominated, but Marquez secured a second-place finish that felt like a triumph. "Come on! It was incredibly tough, really very hard. I think my heart rate hit 190," Marquez noted, reflecting on the grueling physical toll of the race.
Team manager Davide Tardozzi praised Marquez’s race management, noting that the Spaniard avoided unnecessary risks to maximize his points haul. This calculated approach highlights Marquez’s maturity as he continues his relentless pursuit of the world championship title.
