Yamaha Will Be a Roadblock to Marc Marquez for MotoGP Advancing 2020

The former MotoGP racer, Max Biaggi, predicted that Yamaha would be a stumbling block for Marc Marquez to defend his championship title.
Marc Marquez and his Repsol Honda team had a great success last season by winning Triple Crown, aka three titles in one season.

Yes, last season the rider nicknamed The Baby Alien appeared extraordinary by posting 18 podiums with 12 wins.

Marc Marquez's lunge last season was more brilliant after he also managed to record a total of 420 points.

This amount makes him the first MotoGP rider who successfully won more than 400 points in a season.

Marc Marquez's achievements last season also invited attention from former MotoGP racer Max Biaggi.

The man who had been a rival of Valentino Rossi did not dismiss that now is the era of Marc Marquez with Repsol Honda to triumph in MotoGP.

The reason he considers that the combination of Marc Marquez and Repsol Honda is a strong combination and difficult to beat.

"Now is the era of Marc Marquez in MotoGP. Honda and him are a strong mix," Max Biaggi said, quoted by Motorsport-Total.

Biaggi himself did not think Marc Marquez could not be defeated.

The 250cc four-time champion expects Yamaha to be a barrier to Marc Marquez's defense of his title.

That is quite reasonable, besides Maverick Vinales and Valentino Rossi, the team bearing the tuning fork still has Fabio Quartararo who appeared impressive in his inaugural season in the first class.

The 20-year-old rider was able to be an antidote for Iwata's squad amid the difficulties being faced by their manufacturer's racers.

"We have to see if Quartararo will take extra steps about what he needs," he said again

"But we also have to see how he looks in his second season, and this will be difficult for him," said Max Biaggi.

For your information, Yamaha and all other MotoGP teams will return to the track to undergo a preseason test session which will take place at the Sepang Circuit, Malaysia on 7-9 February.

While the new MotoGP 2020 will start its first race on March 8 at the Losail Circuit, Qatar.
