MotoGP 2014 standings leader Marc Marquez won the last premier class race at Aragon and he is certainly looking to repeat that performance on this Sunday, Sept 28th. Especially, after finishing 15ht at Misano as the youngest MotoGP World Champion crashed his bike when he was in hot pursuit of eventual race winner Valentino Rossi. However, now he is looking to make amends as addressing the media at the press meeting before the race in Aragon, Marc said that at Misano they were not prepared to fight for the victory. Nevertheless, he still made an effort because he was looking to win his second world championship title in front of home crowd at Aragon, but it didn’t happen, said Marquez.
Shedding more light on the mishap in Misano, Marquez said that he took the risk and crossed the limit while doing that and as a result his bike got crashed. Now he believes that they just need to concentrate on winning the championship and manage the advantage. The Spaniard continued by saying that now here they are at one of his favourite tracks, in fact, which we can call his most favourite track. Because he really likes to ride in Aragon and he loves the layout as well, Marc explained. Recalling the 125cc race at this track, Marquez said that it did not go well as he crashed out of the race at the first corner, but since then he has done well here, said the Repsol Honda rider.
Thus, Marquez is confident that he will continue to do well in Aragon. In contrast, Marquez’s partner Dani Pedrosa will look to save his second position in the standings, as Rossi is just 1 point behind him now. That’s’ not all, another challenge for Dani is to finish the race in Aragon as during last in the circuit Pedrosa’s bike got crashed when Marquez unintentionally nudged his bike. Dani will now be looking to make a fresh start by erasing that memory.
During the press meeting Pedrosa said that track in Aragaon is good and he enjoys racing on it. He also said that the corners in the track are also quite nice, but there is a chance that bike will slide a little on it. Overall he thinks that the circuit is interesting and they have to try their best at the weekend, as Rossi is gaining on them. Therefore, Pedrosa said that they need to grab as many points as they can on Sunday and give their fans something more to cheer.
The winner of Misano race, Rossi was also present at the pre-even conference and he was looking in good spirit. Speaking to the press the Italian rider said that the victory was amazing as they were waited for it a long time. He said that he had a great time after the race in Misano, as he celebrated the victory with his friends and family members which doubled their jubilation.
On this occasion, Valentino also revealed that they had made an important change to the bike at the last weekend to improve the pace and setting of the machine. The doctor admitted that the Misano track helps M1 that is why they perform well at the circuit. However, now they have to compare their level in Aragon, so they are more focused and pushing really hard.
Valentino’s partner Jorge Lorenzo, who is still in search of his first victory of 2014 season, said that it’s not too good to win a race after securing so many second places. Still Jorge believes that second position is not too bad because they participating in MotoGP and every rider come here to win the race. Lorenzo said that he wants to register a win this year, but it’s not that easy. He also said that they getting stronger with every race, but the wrong tyre choice in Misano have dented their efforts and they need to learn from it. Jorge confessed that track in Aragon does not help them much, but they had conducted a good test here and also had a good race during 2013 season, so they will fight.
Pramac Racing’s Andrew Iannone also had a pretty impressive season so far and now he is gearing up to take part in round 14 of the 2014 MotoGP season. The Pramac rider said at the event that he had good memories of this track as he had done well here when he was in Moto2. According to Andrea, the track is very technical and fast but he will try his best to do well here.
Iannone said that he will get two bikes on this weekend GP14 and the GP14.2. He said that he had tested the new bike back in Mugello, but at that time he was not able to compare the two machines, but on Friday, Sept 26 he will try to do that in order to see which one is better.
