Marquez approached Honda MotoGP farewell like ‘fighting for title’
The eight-time world champion, Marc Marquez, participated in his final round with Honda in Valencia after 11 years with the team and six premier class titles. Despite his impending move to Gresini Ducati next year, Marquez managed to secure a podium finish in the sprint race and believed he had the pace to do the same in the grand prix. Unfortunately, on lap six, Marquez was involved in a collision with Jorge Martin from Pramac, resulting in his exit from the race. Marquez acknowledged that Martin was too optimistic in the overtaking attempt but understood his mindset and held no ill feelings towards him. Despite the unfortunate ending, Marquez expressed gratitude for the weekend’s emotions and bid a “see you later” farewell to the Honda team.
