Márquez enjoyed his best Sunday since joining the Repsol Honda Team. The Spaniard started the day setting the top time in the warmup, a 1:32.402.
In the race, the rookie started from 17th position on the grid and, thanks to a great start, he soon moved into the Top 10. Márquez finished seventh at Misano, thus earning nine points and his best result of this season.
Márquez gains a position in the overall standings, and is 16th with 24 points. The next round of the season will be next weekend: The Catalan Grand Prix.
“Last Sunday, and especially after the test, we managed to make some improvements. We were able to carry these improvements into this weekend and all weekend I have felt very strong. Throughout the weekend we had constant steps. In the race I started well and was aggressive early, which I am happy with. In the first laps I felt good and I was able to keep Dovi behind me for the race. Three laps from the end I had a big moment which allowed Nakagami to get through. Even with this I am pleased as I think we certainly had the pace for the top ten. I want to say thanks to the Repsol Honda Team for their hard work, we are coming stronger and now I am looking forward to Catalunya.”
