‘It was a podium and I tried for it’ – Alex Marquez on dramatic crash at Italian GP as Francesco Bagnaia secures victory
Alex Marquez said he perhaps should have settled for a top-five finish after his crash at the Italian Grand Prix which cost the Ducati racer a podium finish. Marquez managed to pass Luca Marini on lap 11 to move into third but could not avoid going into the gravel, seemingly succumbing to the pressure of holding his position. Ad The Spaniard was clearly not having much luck at Mugello after also crashing out of Saturday’s sprint race following a collision with Brad Binder.
