P1racenews AI automatic summary:
Marc Marquez believes that bigger aerodynamics were a factor in his record 29 falls during his final MotoGP season at Repsol Honda.
“Despite missing multiple races due to injury, Marquez had the most falls in the 2023 MotoGP season. He has a reputation for pushing his bike to its limits and saving tricky front-end moments, but he found it more challenging with the introduction of a larger fairing mid-season. Marquez attributed the increase in crashes to the unpredictability of the bike when falling. His teammate, Joan Mir, also had a high crash tally, suggesting that forcing the bike may have contributed to the accidents. Marquez acknowledged that playing it safe or not pushing as hard was not an option for either of them.”
