“Marc Marquez won’t lose any sleep” over crash, “starting to understand GP23”

But his first time leading a grand prix on a Ducati was short-lived when he slid into the gravel, at Turn 11, ending any hope of a long-awaited victory.

Marquez’s race had begun by losing a wing in contact with Jack Miller, then dramatically touching Martin - he wobbled but stayed upright. TNT Sports’ Michael Laverty joked: “I think he wanted all his wing appendages off, before we got to half-way in the race!“He took liberties, a bit too much, on the front end.

“But his aggression? It was evident. It was brilliant to witness those overtakes, those collisions, those contacts.“Obviously, was asking a little too much of the front tyre. It lets go. It happens.“He was wanting to win. He believed, in those early laps.“But he was making passes, he was going forwards. He was fighting, getting creative with his overtakes.“He would have been on the podium if he made it to the end.Aprilia’s Maverick Vinales instead won the Americas MotoGP.
