Marc Márquez started the MotoGP season with a convincing fourth place at the Qatar Grand Prix. In Losail, the rider showed himself capable of fighting for top positions, despite still adapting to the Ducati and the Gresini team.
In an interview with Estrella Galicia 0,0, Portuguese rider Miguel Oliveira assured that he was not surprised by the competitiveness of his rival, although he believes that not everything may have been revealed:
– I saw Marc very good with the Ducati. It was evident that he held back a bit in this race because I think he wanted to start with a more solid result, but I already expected the speed – because ultimately, there hasn’t been any recent rider who hasn’t won or been fast with a Ducati.
