“Of course I tried to win, before trying, I knew it would be very difficult. You know the times in 2019 or 2018 when I tried against Dovizioso, I tried but I knew he would be there and he will defend very well because competing against Ducati riders is very difficult because they brake very late and accelerate. But plus, today Pecco was riding in a perfect way,” said Marquez, chatting post-race.
