Marco Bezzecchi’s difficult round in Qatar continued during the grand prix as he finished 14th.
Finding the GP23 a tough bike to adapt to, Bezzecchi was unable to turn his struggles around at Qatar, as he instead found himself locked in a battle with the likes of Yamaha’s Fabio Quartararo and Honda duo Johann Zarco and Joan Mir.Joan Mir: ‘I felt like I had more than Quartararo, tyres then dropped a lot’“Also, I soon ran out of rear tyre and had to try and manage it.
