While Lewis Hamilton in Formula 1 Sunday night in Austin could close the bag, in the MotoGP biker category, the Spanish Marc Márquez (Honda) the same day in Motegi (from 2.55 pm ServusTV / MotoGP to from 6:45) resume the seventh world title.

In four races of the end, the Ducati rider Andrea Dovizioso, his first pursuer, is considerable. With a 77-point lead, he would also be the seven-time winner of the season to finish fourth on the Honda national track in Japan and land in front of his 32-year-old rival. Márquez has secured two of his four MotoGP titles to Motegi.

Last year, Dovizioso kept the advantage over the wet-star Honda on the last corner. And this time he wants to at least delay the World Cup party. "I have not thought about the World Cup since many races, because the gap was too big and Márquez is too strong, but I hope we can postpone the celebration of the Cup Marc's World at one of the next races. "

Márquez could only celebrate a victory in Motegi and know the reasons. "It's a stop track where good acceleration is the key to success." Something that makes Ducati GP18 from Dovizioso much more attractive. But the Spaniard has also in Australia, Malaysia and Valencia all the cards in hand.

The KTM pilot Espargaró motivates

KTM man Pol Espargaró, slowed this summer by two fractures of the clavicle, wants to regain his strength in Japan. "I feel much better compared to Thailand (21st place, rating) and I should be close to 100%," said the Spaniard. (Fei)
