Marquez said it loud and clear. Should Ducati actually decide to hire a talent like Pedro Acosta, he won't stand in the way of it. So, after finding out his opinion about him, the KTM rider couldn't help but welcome the eight-time world champion's implicit compliment. "If a motorcycle legend like Marc said that, it's flattering and positive. We'll see what the future holds," the 20-year-old said, as reported by the Mundo Deportivo website.
His answer to the question of whether he's eager to get behind such an important colleague as his fellow countryman was also interesting. "More than eager to beat him, I'd like to be able to lose against him. To battle with a rider of his caliber is already an achievement, including when you're behind," he admitted, which hints at how much he bites the bullet and dreams of a competitive bike that can allow him to fight for the very top positions.
Finally, the Shark from Mazarron was asked to justify something he said, which had immediately triggered the discontent of the Catalan's fans, namely that "Marc Marquez, who?" uttered a few months ago during RTVE's "La Revuelta" broadcast.
"It's very easy to misinterpret things and, in the end, a case was made of it. David Broncano's program is humorous, and the interviews maintain that tone. Maybe [people] should learn to understand when it's serious and when it's a joke," he said, trying to silence those who had criticized him for daring to mock a big name like the ace from Cervera.
