JAKARTA - Two Gresini Racing Federal Oil drivers, Marc Marquez and Alex Marquez, are both eyeing the podium in the closing MotoGP 2024 race at the Barcelona Circuit on Sunday.
"Finanese in the top five will be a good result, and the target is the top three, although we are having too much trouble right now," Marc Marquez said in a Federal Oil press release on Sunday.
Marc Marquez, who started the sprint race from third place, had to finish seventh on Saturday (16/11) after suffering a collision with Pedro Alcohol.
"This sprint race is challenging. I don't have the right feeling, and we have to work hard in full race to get better," said the rider nicknamed Baby Alien.
"I struggled at the start to avoid Jorge and Pecco, went wide and lost time, then collided with Askosta. Nothing went wrong, but it cost me time," said Marc.

On the other hand, his younger brother Alex Marquez managed to end the sprint race in fifth position or above Marc Marquez. According to him, this is because of the mechanical performance of the experts who have prepared Ducati Desmodedici GP23 so that it is more comfortable to drive.
"I'm happy with the sprint race and a little disappointed with the qualification where I made too many mistakes. Then I was quite lucky at the start and more comfortable going through an easy race in the first corner, which allowed me to recover many positions," said Alex Marquez.
Marc Marquez is currently in fourth place in the standings with 372 points, while Alex Marquez is in tenth position with 160 points.
