However, there were certain challenges and moments that eventually made him fall and be eliminated from the race.
"I was driving very well and (hit) a little margin, I also felt comfortable and not stressed. I saw (Pecco) Bagnaia and (Jorge) Martin qualify, so I focused on staying with (Luca) Marini in the group and trying to achieve my goal in the top six or seven," Marquez said after the race.
"I had a moment at Turn 10 on the first lap and then came back into the last corner before I fell," he continued, quoted from the team's official statement via Antara.
