Marquez Baffled by British GP Tyre Drop

Published August 8, 2026 · Updated August 8, 2026 · Motorsport.com

Marc Marquez expressed confusion after experiencing a significant tyre drop in the British Grand Prix sprint, which caused him to finish ninth despite a strong start.

The factory Ducati rider began the race strongly, passing Marco Bezzecchi to claim fourth place on the opening lap. However, Marquez's performance deteriorated dramatically on lap five when Bezzecchi repassed him, with Marquez unable to explain the sudden loss of grip.

'I had no explanation for such a massive tyre drop,' Marquez stated after the race, leaving both himself and fans puzzled by the unexpected performance decline. sos-zagle.org.pl
