Brilliant winner of this Aragon Grand Prix despite an excess of optimism which made him lose the front of his Honda RC213V during the third lap, Marc Marquez did not shy away from his pleasure by responding to the site's camera MotoGP.com, immediately after getting off his motorcycle in the parc ferme.


How difficult was it to come back up after the extreme heat you experienced?

 Marc Márquez: “Yes, I didn't have a very good start but I attacked from the first lap because I knew my pace was better. My goal was to try to lead the race to avoid Rossi being able to follow me but I made a mistake. When I was leading, I almost lost the front and then I said to myself “OK, stay calm and heat the front tire well” because I was with the tough guy. Then, little by little, I got into a good rhythm. When I overtook Valentino, I attacked for two laps, then I saw that the gap was quite sufficient and I just tried to keep the pace.
You know, I'm very happy because Rossi was picking up points little by little in the last races, and now we stopped (Rossi) and that's good.”
