The Repsol Honda team riders will take part in the Catalan Grand Prix this weekend, the seventh round of the MotoGP World Championship season.
Marc Márquez holds three consecutive second positions from his last three visits to the Barcelona-Catalunya Circuit , where he has also achieved a MotoGP victory in 2014 and a 125cc triumph in 2010.
After six races, the Repsol Honda Team rider leads the overall standings with a 12-point lead -the largest of the season so far.
Jorge Lorenzo won the 2019 Catalan Grand Prix and has four further victories there, plus a win in 250cc. He has returned from a visit to Japan following the Italian GP.
Marc Márquez:
“We arrive in good form after Mugello. The bike and I are in a very good position now, I was able to rest a little between races and I’m back to full strength. There’s always a bit more excitement heading into a home GP and it’s always a great pleasure to ride in front of all the fans. I’m hopeful of another strong result here in Catalunya to continue the work we’ve been doing.”
Jorge Lorenzo:
“After a mixed weekend in Mugello, I am hoping that we can do good work this weekend in Barcelona. We will keep working at our maximum to close the gap to the front. We also have a test after the race, which I am looking forward to as well. I had a very interesting trip to Japan and we were able to work on many things, some which will help this weekend and some for the future.”
