·@marcmarquez93: “In San Marino I expect to fight again for the podium if we work well during the weekend.”
With little rest after an exciting race at Silverstone, the MotoGP World Championship travels to Misano, Italy, for its thirteenth round of the season. The Grand Prix of San Marino and the Riviera of Rimini takes place this weekend, and Marc Marquez comes into the event still leading the series. He won at last year’s event, and also has victories there in all three classes (125cc, Moto2 and MotoGP). Teammate Dani Pedrosa was back in the Top 5 in Great Britain and regained confidence in his riding, and will look to keep up the progress at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli, where he has one win (in 2010) and a further four podiums (in 2014, 2013, 2011 and 2009) to his name in the premier class. Marquez leads the standings with 210 points, 50 ahead of his nearest rival, while Pedrosa is fifth with 120 points.

“All in all we got an okay result in England, as even though we didn’t make the ideal choice with the front tyre, in the end we lost just three points. Now we head to Misano, which is quite a different track as it is twisty and slow. In San Marino I expect to fight again for the podium if we work well during the weekend. I’m happy to go racing in Italy, where I really hope the weather will be nice and give us the chance to make the most of every session.”
Dani Pedrosa
“We arrive in Misano from a race that helped us to gain a little bit more confidence and motivation. Lap by lap, I was better able to understand our strong points and weak points. We need to keep the same style in the next race weekend, focusing in the practices, not making too many changes on the bike and working to understand how to use the tyres better, choosing those that adapt better to the track. We must remain completely focused on the job.”
