This will be one of the attractions of the next MotoGP season. If not, even, the attraction. The relationship that will be, in the Honda box, between Marc Marquez and his new teammate Por Fuera will be closely followed. Alberto puig will have work and, given the guy's character, there could be an atmosphere. So the wait is there. But now Marc Marquez, in full convalescence, assures that, from this point of view, we will be disappointed. Because nothing will happen!
Marc Marquez does not really experience a peaceful winter break. He has six weeks to recover from a delicate shoulder operation. The limb was so worn that the doctors who treated him are still wondering how their patient could have become World Champion in this state... The Honda official is therefore in the middle of combat and is preparing for the battle that awaits him in 2019 with a certain Jorge Lorenzo.
It's about Lorenzo who was the only one to beat him since he was in MotoGP for a world crown. It was in 2015. The Mallorcan was then at Yamaha and he showed in two years that he could win on a Ducati. The first tests on the Honda proved interesting. There is no doubt that it will be something other than Dani Pedrosa.
Confrontation is therefore inevitable. But what will the real intensity be? Marc Marquez, from the outset, wishes to limit the debates on the track. And not outside. In comments relayed by Tutomotoriweb, he rocks : " on the track we will both try to win the title and we will give 100%. We were the protagonists of great duels in Austria and Brno. But we also maintain professional relationships. It's different on the track, but you can maintain good relationships off the track, like the ones that exist between Dovizioso and me ».
The Spaniard continued: “ people are expecting drama next year and I understand that, but Jorge and I are both professionals. The competition will take place on the track. We know it is our duty to fight only on this one ».
In short, the HRC rider is not afraid of confrontation with his compatriot and above all wants to limit the battle to the track alone.
