Summoned by the MotoGP race management after the Grand Prix of Aragon following the fall of Dani Pedrosa, which he allegedly partly caused by damaging his traction control, Marc Marquez said he would be "surprised" if a sanction were to be imposed. taken against him.

Summoned by the MotoGP race management after the fall of Dani Pedrosa, which he allegedly caused in part by damaging his traction control, Marc Marquez said he would be "surprised" if a sanction was taken against him.

If he recognizes that the contact with his teammate is his doing and that he will try "to take the safest route" if he finds himself again "in such a situation", Marquez does not consider himself responsible for the situation. highside of which Pedrosa was a victim, even though he would have cut the cable informing a traction control sensor by touching the oscillating arm of RRS n ° 26 (read our).

For the leader of the MotoGP championship (with 39 points ahead of Lorenzo and 59 over Pedrosa), the fall of "Pedro" is only linked to the malfunction of his anti-skid: "if I had not cut this control cable traction, we would have said absolutely nothing ", continues the young Spanish prodigy.

Marquez also confided that he had discussed with the officials of the Honda-Repsol team "not about the incident, but about a way to change the positioning of this cable, because it is something that could also have happened to me. ".

This famous cable could for example be split, or pass over the upper part of the swingarm (as on the Yamaha M1, see photo above) in order to avoid this kind of breakdown.

"I feel supported"

Sorry for his teammate, whose “hot reactions he understands because he could have been injured and he is eliminated from the title fight”, Marquez is however certain to be in his right. Even if he hears "a lot of comments and criticisms" following this clash, the n ° 93 also specified that he felt "supported".

Indianapolis gets a makeover

As we indicated in our, the organizer of the Grands Prix (Dorna) has put all his weight to ensure that the famous American track undergoes major improvements. The message seems to have passed since the leaders of the "Brickyard" have just announced that the coating would be renovated and that the route would undergo major modifications. With among others "new braking zones" designed to offer "more opportunities for overtaking".

"I listen and analyze everything and then I act accordingly. But one thing is clear, I know what my goal is, which is to try to win the world title in MotoGP", concludes the young rider with his usual determination.

Clearly, whether we criticize or adore him, admire his driving or disapprove of his ardor, nothing will be able to deviate Marquez from this incredible trajectory that he traces towards the supreme title. !
