Alex Marquez may have just had his best weekend of the year in Malaysia. While he had been very discreet until now, Marc's little brother distinguished himself with a fourth place in the Grand Prix. Yesterday he already said that he could hardly do better., given the speed of the GP24s and Marc Marquez in front of him. Finally, his brother's fall allowed him to keep the fourth place already acquired yesterday. Still in the shadows, unfortunately, because of the battle for the world title ahead of him.
Last year, he managed to win the Sprint. This time, it was not the case, but Alex Marquez is still happy with his Malaysian weekend. "It's a weekend where we picked up important points and, above all, regained confidence and the sensations that we had missed a little during the last outings » he asserted.

Like the others, he had to refocus after the crash of Quartararo, Binder and Miller, which led to a red flag. A situation far from easy, especially since he had caught a slight cold yesterday! “It was not an easy race because with the red flag I had to keep my concentration high and also I wasn't 100% physically because of a slight cold that didn't allow me to sleep very well last night. » he added.
