Marc Marquez experienced a difficult Friday at the Sachsenring

Marc Marquez more nervous than ever after Friday’s free practice at the Sachsenring, the track on which he has always dominated, with a resounding score of 11 wins in his last 11 appearances. Instead, the difficulties on the track-amulet instead unnerved the Honda centaur, who is now in the midst of a break with the Japanese company.

Marquez during the second free practice session flashed a middle finger toward the bike after narrowly avoiding a crash due to his bristling Honda, and shortly afterward he slid equally, hitting and mowing down Johann Zarco ahead of him.

After free practice Marquez was also very nervous about the French centaur who had just been knocked down: “In truth it was him who should not have been there. You know when strong riders come you have to stay at the pit exit… Only Zarco could avoid the crash.”

While also for Honda the words remain harsh: “I knew we would have problems here too, we struggle with motor skills and here if you don’t have grip you don’t advance.”

These are the statements made in a press conference by Juventus coach Igor Tudor on the eve of the challenge at the Stadio Olimpico against Claudio Ranieri’s Roma, valid for the 31st day of Serie A.

“I am happy with this my first full week of work. We trained on the two phases, set pieces and physical condition. I saw the boys with the desire to do well. With Roma it will be an important game, but not a decisive one. It&#8217s a difficult match against a team that is going through a very good moment of form. We, however, want to think about ourselves and try to field the things we are working on” began the Bianconeri coach.

“We have to grow game by game. I believe a lot in working during the week. A team with Juventus must be perfect from a tactical point of view, from the style of play to the structure to the defensive phase. I arrived at a rather delicate moment, but now we have picked ourselves up and started pedaling” continued the former Lazio coach.

“I have seen Kenan in five or six trainings. To be a champion you need consistency in performance and this can only be achieved with continuity, especially mental. I see a young man who is serious and focused on soccer. I urge everyone to be consistent in their growth, work and not settle. This is the key of champions: maintaining the same level of play against every team. Yildiz is young and still has a lot of work to do, but the starting point is very good” added the Croatian coach.

“Douglas Luzi and Cambiaso have only recently returned to the group, so they do not have the 90 minutes in their legs. We know that McKennie is a wild card and his pliability will be very useful to us right now. Conceiçao is a smart player and I think he can also play more centrally. He needs time to settle in that area of the field and grow, but I like his mentality and attitude of work” concluded Igor Tudor.
