Marquez wants ride as a girl
The MotoGP ™ rider did not miss Carrasco's successful return to the top box in Race 2 at Misano and acknowledges that he would like to make a similar return
It could be said that Marc Márquez has endorsed the motivational motto of Ana Carrasco, the famous 'Ride like a girl' with which the spanish rider claimed responsibility after winning the WorldSSP300 world title in 2018. After last year's serious accident in Estoril, Carrasco was able to culminate his long physical recovery with a brilliant victory in the Pirelli Made in Italy Emilia-Romagna Round held at the Misano circuit.
Márquez answering a journalist's question, expressed his joy at the success of the Murcian driver in Italy:
"I was very happy for her, I know her team very well and the people who are with her are the ones who gave me the first opportunity to race a motorcycle" explained the Cervera rider. "I was very happy and it was very nice after a recovery for such a long time after her serious injury, it is like an extra fuel that you have inside. It is true that she has been training well for a long time, I sometimes speak with her Team Manager, and she has had a good preseason and arrived prepared. But the truth is that after from such a serious injury, it's always nice. When I saw her I thought she deserved it, and I'm sure she will continue like this. If the year starts like this, she will continue at the top. "
The eight-time world champion has also gone through a long and complicated recovery process to feel fully competitive again after his arm injury suffered in July 2020, and at the aforementioned press conference, he expressed his desire to emulate the visit of Carrasco to the highest drawer this season:
"I would like to have a comeback like Ana's, but my situation is different because I still am not 100%, I have arrived here directly without a preseason. It is different ... of course I would like to achieve a result like Ana's before finish the year, but I need to follow my feeling step by step, and see if we can achieve it ”.
Ana is now at 3 position with 42 points tied with japanesse Yuta Okaya and after the Spanish Adrian Huertas with 72 points and the british Ton Booth with 65. All of them with KAWASAKI.
Marquez is probably the best moto rider ever with 8 worlds championst and 28 years old. But he has a lot of trouble finding his pre-accident state. Something that Ana has achieved in an exceptional way with an accident that has almost left her in a rude chair.
All Amazons are with you ANA!!!!
