Marc Marquez admitted he is in safe mode at Assen after a subdued sixth place finish in Saturday’s MotoGP Sprint, having said on Friday he dislikes the circuit due to its risk level. He crossed the line seventh before being promoted to sixth when Bagnaia was penalised for exceeding track limits. He now trails Bezzecchi by 42 points after cutting the gap from 102 over the previous four races.
