Jorge Martin is facing a daunting task in defending his MotoGP title lead against Marc Marquez. Martin currently holds a 14-point advantage over Ai Ogura, but Marquez is gaining ground, now just 18 points behind after a recent Sprint and grand prix double at the Sachsenring.
Martin acknowledges the challenge, stating that beating Marquez means overcoming 'the best rider in history'. Despite this, he believes he can fight when at 100%.
The outcome of this battle could have significant implications, as Martin's potential win would bring Aprilia's first MotoGP title, and the #1 plate would move with him to Yamaha next season.
