Alex Marquez

Since Alex Marquez left the Honda fold, and therefore the orbit of the dominant star which is none other than his illustrious brother Marc Marquez, he has continued to send barbs to his former brand . He even makes them worse by reporting each time this feeling of fullness finally found since he rides a Ducati. An approach that could be understood during the off-season, or even in Portugal. But now the facts speak for themselves, revealing a rider who was not crowned in Moto3 and then Moto2 by chance. And yet, in Argentina, he did it again, as if he still had to convince someone of something...

On the arrival of a Argentine Grand Prix where he had just taken the third step on the podium after starting from pole position, Alex Marquez proclaimed to anyone who would listen: « I don't care what other people say. I believe in myself and I am convinced that I made the right choice by choosing Ducati and the Gresini team. I took this option because I wanted to be on the best bike and ride in a decent team. Gresini are a decent team, they are very professional. I knew the rest was up to me ».

« I've always said that Alex Marquez is not just Marc Marquez's brother »

Then he added: “ we are in a constant progression, we are moving forward and constantly, it is the most positive thing in the balance sheet after the first two events ". We will not know who these “ other » who seem to continue to question these choices, no one can any longer decently doubt that they were good.

It remains that if Alex Marquez seems to disappoint some, it pleases others. This is the case ofOscar Haro, who worked with him at LCR Honda. The latter declared on Nico Abad's Twitch channel, cited by Motosan, that the Spaniard still lived in the shadow of his brother Marc Marquez, while, as he has just demonstrated at Termas de Rio Hondo, he is much more than that: “ I have always said that Alex Marquez is not only the brother of Marc Marquez. This backpack has always been heavy for him to carry. This is a guy who is a two-time world champion and Spanish champion. I've always said it, I've been working with him for a year and he's a super professional, he's very fast and especially in the wet, he's a very good driver ».
