Marc Marquez has added flames to his never-ending rivalry with Valentino Rossi by claiming that “it would have been better to pretend” to be friends but “I hate pretending”.
Perhaps MotoGP’s fiercest feud continues verbally to this day, and new insight is included in the Honda rider’s book ‘Being Marc Marquez: This Is How I Win My Race’.
Marquez looked back at the 2018 Argentina MotoGP when he knocked Rossi off his Yamaha, one of many notorious collisions between them.Marquez admitted he considered playing nice in a book extract via“He has a lot of fans and it meant antagonising them, but what choice did I have?“For tactical reasons, it would have been better to pretend to be Valentino's friend, but I'm not like that.”
Marquez also mentioned his infamous pass of Rossi at the Corkscrew, at Laguna Seca, in his rookie year of 2013. He went unpunished for running off track while overtaking, and even Rossi admitted the similarities to his own move against Casey Stoner from 2008.Related Articles
