The year 2020 is on the horizon with the promise of an event-packed MotoGP season. There will indeed be some not only on the track, but also behind the scenes, with a transfer market in turmoil in view of the 2021 and 2022 financial years. The one who will set the pace will be the captain Marc Márquez who has set the category at his boot. He will inevitably be called upon even if, for him, the change will certainly be one of continuity. Does he still do what he wants? Listening to him, he still has a constraint…

Marc Márquez can he do more than what he is currently doing? His 2019 season was near perfect, to the point where it will be difficult to repeat. A domination which recalls the adage that to conquer without danger one triumphs without glory. So, we imagine it trying its luck with another brand, or even confronting other categories. But this is all fantasy at the moment.     

Indeed, Marc Márquez is at the top of his game, but he also seems a prisoner of his notoriety. He explains thus: “ honestly, I don't plan to go to another manufacturer. Not now. This is not an idea that appeals to me at the moment. The goal is to win even more with Honda, not with another bike », underlined the eight-time world champion who, in 2020, will share the Repsol Honda box with his brother and reigning Moto2 world champion, Alex Marquez.

Even races outside the MotoGP World Championship, such as the eight-hour classics of Suzuka, are currently not a concern for Marc: “ it depends on the situation. If it’s a goal that catches my eye… But I'm also in a situation where I can only lose », declared the man from Cervera who thus admits his imperative. “ If I do the Suzuka 8H I can only lose. Because if I win, it would be “normal” for the general public. Only my defeat would make the headlines »

The fact that he can’t put a Suzuka triumph on his CV doesn’t bother him: “ It doesn't stop me from sleeping “, he assured. And the WSBK? “ Not even. » On the other hand, if the rules allow two starts during a Grand Prix weekend in the future, Marc Márquez would consider the option: “ Yes, I would like that ". Moto2 has been warned!
