Cadena SER: ‘Marquez would not block Lorenzo Honda move’

In an interview with Spanish radio station Cadena SER, Marc Marquez has claimed that he would not prevent Honda from signing up title rival Jorge Lorenzo, as well as admitting that he understands if current teammate Dani Pedrosa has been bothered by the rookie’s title success of the 2013 season.

“I would never block the arrival of Lorenzo – it would be interesting to have him in the box,” Marquez commented. “I do not mind who my teammate is; I just try to get the most out of it and learn as much as possible.”

Going on to discuss Pedrosa, Marquez recognised that his Repsol Honda Team partner had been ‘put in place’ and that he would dislike the same situation should the roles have been reversed. “I would be the first to be annoyed,” said the 20-year-old.
