Marquez goes to Germany “with maximum motivation”

The MotoGP World Championship moves this weekend to Sachsenring circuit —Germany— to celebrate the ninth round of the calendar. The Repsol riders, determined to followed the trend set in Mugello, reach the midpoint of the season with the aim to keep the good results obtained two weeks ago on the Italian track.

Marc Márquez was able to take a win in Italy, his second consecutive triumph of the season and third win this year. Those results put him on the second position of the Moto2 overall classification. The Repsol rider goes back to the Sachsenring track determined to keep the same level he has shown up to now, that has made of him, not only the best rookie of the class, but one of the referents of the grid. Emilio Alzamora’s pupil already knows victory in Germany —in 2010 he got on the highest step of the podium in the 125cc class— and will try to keep gathering good results in his first season in the intermediate category.

Marc Márquez: “After two consecutive victories, we arrive in Germany with maximum motivation, but we know that we need to keep the same frame of mind we had until now. We have to focus on our job and do it well, taking full advantage of our time on track. Sachsenring is a special track, one of the shortest of the championship, if not the shortest, with a very slow first part where it is very difficult to set the difference.

This will be specially obvious in Moto2, where there are a lot of riders and the level is very close. The second half of the track is faster and I like it more. We will try to keep the concentration during the whole weekend, prepare the race well and get a good result to start the summer break on a high”.
