I was going back to the garage and thinking more about continuing with the same tires than with the crash,&#8221; he explained.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was thinking more about saving the bike.<\/p>\n<aside><\/aside>\n<p>\u201cBut as I passed by the grass, I smashed my hand a bit, so it&#8217;s true that it&#8217;s tricky.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Looking at it now, I say &#8216;I just give up&#8217; (and let the bike go), but my instinct meant having one! \u201d<\/p>\n<p>Marquez was temporarily pushed out of the top 10, easily earning direct qualifying 2 access in fourth place (+0.360 seconds).<\/p>\n<aside><\/aside>\n<p>Meanwhile, his brother Alex exploited the speed of the excellent corner at the top of Gresini&#8217;s timesheet, with Fabio Cartararo and Jacques Miller separating the Marquez brothers.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m struggling more here than Qatar,&#8221; admitted Mark. He also appeared in a perfect double victory from Lucail despite flagging that track as one of his weakest.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I work on my riding style, but I&#8217;m not as far as I&#8217;ve lost as I did in the past, so I&#8217;m closer to the top guy.<\/p>\n<aside><\/aside>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s like last year, and while it&#8217;s true that used tires felt better than new ones, time attacks were also one of my strengths in the first race.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The eight-time world champion, who agreed to be the rider Alex lost this weekend, could still face his toughest fight to extend the perfect run of the sprint victory to 7.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The only place Alex was incredibly fast in the right corner compared to the other Ducatis where Alex is turn 8,&#8221; he revealed. &#8220;But we know Alex. Here, Catalonia and Malaysia, all those long horns, he is very fast and historically this is one of his best tracks.<\/p>\n<aside><\/aside>\n<p>&#8220;From FP1 to practice, I&#8217;ve already reduced a bit (turn 8 gap) but he&#8217;s got the others. In the end there&#8217;s up and down. I&#8217;ve got a lot in some corners. He&#8217;s got a lot in other corners.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Of course he addresses his weaknesses, I work on mine. But it&#8217;s like he&#8217;s faster, his left corner faster, I&#8217;m a faster trend. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Let&#8217;s see what we can do for tomorrow.&#8221;<\/p>\n<aside><\/aside>\n<p>Marquez lost the time to start his valuable practice when he suffered from technical issues at the end of the morning session.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The sensor detected some errors and I got a message saying that it would shut down the engine,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf course, starting practice is becoming more and more important, especially with the rear device on the front device, it is difficult to release it at the first corner here.<\/p>\n<aside><\/aside>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s not like Le Mans, but it&#8217;s difficult. But it&#8217;s like this, so I can&#8217;t think about it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Instead, he calls the same kind of instinct to put his hands at risk in the afternoon fall.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I will first try to follow my instincts tomorrow.&#8221;<\/p>\n<aside><\/aside>\n<p>Mark will start this Saturday&#8217;s sprint with a 22-point lead over Alex.<\/p>\n<p>Factory teammate Francesco Bagnaia was seventh on the first day at Silverstone.<\/p>\n<aside><\/aside>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mark Marquez suffered from his fourth crash of the 2025 MotoGP season.
