Only A Duo Can Stop Marquez.

Posted On : 22-08-2014

The question "who can stop Marc Marquez?" has finally an answer that showed up on the Czech Republic MotoGP race: but it was not what we expected. Dani Pedrosa won the 11th race of the season, thanks to a Valentino Rossi that managed to hold Marc Marquez. For first time in the entire season Marc Marquez failed a podium. An incredible picture that some of us thought we would never see in this MotoGP championship of 2014. But it has happened, and it happened on the Czech Republic race.

 

 

As what we have seen on other races on this MotoGP championship Marc Marquez loose the podium he won on Saturday as soon as the light went green, we are still wondering if Marquez does this on purpose or if this is the only feature that Marc Marquez needs to improve as a pilot, and near the start the Ducati pilots were, surprisingly, ruling the race, after them it was Dani Pedrosa. It didn't take long for Dani Pedrosa to overpass the Ducati pilots and he was leading the race soon after that... Lorenzo was then right after Dani Pedrosa, but soon Valentino Rossi will start a hunt for Marc Marquez, and in the 12th lap Valentino Rossi managed to take advantage of a mistake of Marc Marquez and passed him, after that he was able to perfectly close any gap that Marc Marquez might take advantage of and was able to hold on into the third position. There's some reasonable doubt whether Marc Marquez let Valentino Rossi to take the third position and not engage into any unnecessary risk, knowing Marc Marquez this might sound strange but we have to take into consideration that Marc Marquez is, by now, a virtual champion of the MotoGP championship of 2014, why would he risk any injuries or something even worst just for a third place that will not make him loose almost any of his undisputable advantage over Dani Pedrosa and Valentino Rossi.

 

 

The championship remains the same as it has been since the beginning. Marc Marquez rules on the first place, second place belongs to a good Dani Pedrosa and third place to Valentino Rossi that has proven to be a reliable pilot that still has something to offer in spite his age. The downside of this year championship is see the incredible downfall of a good pilot as Jorge Lorenzo, that it's, for the first time in the entire championship, on a podium for third time in a row. To be honest, I don't remember having such a "boring" MotoGP championship since the ruling days of Valentino Rossi, but since the appearance of Marc Marquez, this little boy has made champions of MotoGP look like rookies and he appears to be a hard seasoned champion. Where is the end of this boy? From five years onward are we still going to have this championships solos or is somebody going to give him a fight? We hope for the sake of competition and entertainment somebody does something
