Marc Marquez (Team CatalunyaCaixa Repsol Suter) has taken control of the Moto2 World Championship with serial success over the past several races. The young Spaniard has won four of the past five races and six overall. That has given him a commanding 213 to 165 point lead over Pol Espargaro (Pons 40 HP Tuenti Kalex), his fellow Spaniard who has two wins himself.
Marquez will be tough to beat in Misano. He won the 125cc race during his successful 125cc title run in 2010 and he beat Bradl and Andrea Iannone (Speed Master Speed Up) in a hard-fought race last year. Marquez expects Iannone to be tough on one of his home tracks and is prepared to temper his enthusiasm in the service of the championship.
Marc Marquez
“Misano is rather different to Brno. It is a track with a lot more braking and is generally slower and smaller. I have a fond memory of last year’s race, at which I took an important victory. Once again, the aim is to start to work like always, focused on Sunday. The Italian riders will be taking on this race with extra motivation that has always made them go fast. We will have to be calm and see where we can finish.”
