Marc Marquez now demands justice

The words of Marc Marquez

Marc Marquez had his say after what happened on Saturday at the Red Bull Ring: “It was an interesting Sprint, when I tested the new aerodynamics yesterday I knew more or less what was going to happen in the sprint – and it did. So, in a way, it was good to understand this new aerodynamic package better. We worked with many different setups over the weekend, but we have a clear idea of what to do tomorrow. We benefited a lot from other people’s crashes, we have to be honest. Without these incidents we would have been more or less in 15th position. Let’s keep working and see what we can achieve in tomorrow’s race.”

Closing remark on what happened to Jorge Martin: “I knew he would take a risk and he did. He saw a gap and pushed some riders away. For me, these are things that happen in the race, the only thing I say is that there has to be the same yardstick for everyone. The new aerodynamics? It is a reaction, at least it shows something. If you suffer and don’t feel anything the whole time, then it’s more frustrating, but at least you see a reaction and you have more motivation to adapt your driving style. Yesterday we were up until the wee hours of the morning looking at telemetry to see how I could improve.”

Valentino Rossi certainly did not hide his disappointment after the MotoGp sprint race in Austria that saw his team’s two riders, Marco Bezzecchi and Luca Marini, retire, the former due to a crash in the very early stages and the latter due to contact mid-race.

The main target of criticism was the common denominator of the two contacts, Jorge Martin: “He started off very charged because he hadn’t set a time in qualifying, he knew he had to take the first few corners like crazy – said the ‘Doctor’ -. But he went in a little too crazy, came in strong and touched Quartararo: that’s when the carom started and the others fell too.”

“For me it’s simple,” Rossi added, “you have to give a long lap penalty right away. The second crash? Martin overtook in a difficult spot, he wanted to make a decisive entry that, however, leads you to touch the opponent. Luca did not want to cross, for me Jorge also gave him another push.”

In addition to the Ducati Pramac rider, Valentino also criticized the race direction, “They seem to me to be decisive in things that matter little, less so in the important things like a rider second in the world championship who comes to the first corner too strong and throws everyone on the ground.”

on

The bronze medal at the Olympics and the semifinals at Wimbledon have charged her up

This is it. Italy è is ready to start on the road to another possible dream, which is to win the Davis Cup again. The first obstacle è represented by the hostile Argentina (absolutely not to be underestimated). The Azzurri are betting, of course, on world No. 1 Sinner but there’è great confidence also in Musetti who arrived in Malaga in great form.

The blue number 2 è has been the protagonist of a heavenly season. The bronze at the Olympics and the semifinals at Wimbledon have charged him up. Now he è ready to be an absolute protagonist in the Davis Cup: “I arrive with a different maturity at all levels”, his clear words to Gazzetta dello Sport.

“I’m ready to take more responsibility and have a more central, more important part than 12 months ago. There will be a lot of excitement, a lot of adrenaline, and I have a lot of desire to experience the competition”, the commentary of Musetti himself, who arrived in Malaga in excellent physical condition, having had some time to rest after Paris-Bercy.

Clearly, with such a motivated Musetti, è much can be expected from Italy. Sinner è an absolute guarantee but, to make it all the way, the help of all the members of the blue team led by captain Volandri is needed. There’s a strong desire to accomplish another feat and return to celebrate, all together.

Well Golden State, black crisis for Philadelphia

So many contests in the NBA night. With its back against the wall, Milwaukee finds the strength to fight back and take home a crucial victory in the match with Chicago (122-106 the final). Race dominated by Antetokounmpo who finished with an impressive 41 points on the scoreboard, including 25 in a surreal third period, with also eight assists and nine rebounds.

Thanks to this success, the Bucks record rises to six wins and nine losses. After losing the unbeaten streak to Boston, Cleveland returned to success: 128-100 over New Orleans. Excellent performance by Jerome (29 points). The record of the Cavs è the best in the NBA with 16 wins and only one loss (suffered, precisely, against the Celtics).

Most delicate moment for Philadelphia, which continues to sink. The 76ers also surrendered in Memphis (117-111 the final), collecting their 12th defeat of the season (only two wins). A strong showing by Embiid (35 points and 11 rebounds) wasn’t enough to bring a smile back to the interior of a team in total crisis.

As for the other games, OKC folds Portland (109-99) while Houston gets rid of Indiana (130-113) rather easily. New York wins the challenge with Phoenix (138-122) while Golden State prevails against Atlanta: 120-97 the final for the Warriors with 23 points by Curry. Nice success, finally, of the LA Clippers against Orlando (104-93).

Ferrari è currently second at -36 from McLaren

.

The Las Vegas GP takes the stage. A new opportunity, for Ferrari, to try to get even closer to McLaren, currently leader in the constructors’ standings with 593 points, 36 more than the Cavallino. The circuit would seem to favor the Rossa, although Sainz points out an important detail.

“Ferrari competitive? Looking at the track I would say sì, Ferrari should be competitive or at least should be able to fight but when we see that tire temperatures rise, then I would say no”, the clear words of Sainz reported by Marca.

The Cavallino driver knows that in order to take home the Constructors’ World Championship title, he needs “help” from McLaren: “I think we are close. But at the same time, we also need McLaren to make some mistakes, becauseé, if they don’t make any mistakes from here to the end, in case we have to win all the time and we and they come second in every race, I think McLaren will probably still be able to keep the title”.

Sainz, in addition to trying to win another GP before ending his adventure with the Cavallino, wants to try to help the team win the constructors world championship: “I would like to win the championship for Ferrari this year. And sì, I think it would be a great way to end the season”.
