Marc Marquez started his weekend in Austin on the right foot, achieving a third place in the second session which gave him access to the Q2. All in all, it was a predictable result, knowing how the rider from Spain feels about the COTA track, where he has dominated for years. Marc is starting to figure out a Ducati that he might not yet able to interpret in a completely natural manner, but he’s proven that he’s fast both in terms of pace and flying lap.
These what he stated to our Sky Sport MotoGP colleagues at the end of Friday in Austin.
