Barely got off his official Honda RC213V after achieving the 70th pole position of his career during this Austrian Grand Prix, Marc Marquez spoke to the site's microphone MotoGP.com.


Congratulations on this pole position at the Red Bull Ring, on a circuit known to be favorable to Ducatis. What is the little extra something you have found over the last two days?

Marc Márquez : “yes, last year we struggled a lot but, honestly, we prepared very well for the race weekend. During Monday's test in Brno we tried a lot of different configurations, just staying focused on this circuit. And yes, it looks like we started straight away with a good base of settings, a completely different base from last year. At the moment it seems that the pace is good, we are able to have a high speed and a good rhythm. But tomorrow it will be the race, which is the most important. We will try to give everything again, but it will be very important to choose the right rear tire. »
