By Marc Marquez year’s electronics of Magneti Marelli can prevent them from returning to the peak of the season in 2016. Recall that last year the Spaniard and his team utterly lost titles for Yamaha. The main problem was the engine.
Less than 23-year-old Repsol Honda rider hit, burst into the royal class MotoGP and won titles in the first two seasons starts. Season 2015 was in the “bucket of cold water” for the player with the number 93, which in eighteen races until six landed on the stage. And all the trouble with the drive unit, which has not resonated with the frame RC2013V and drove to the big problems with the control of the rear of the bike. The situation is worsened by the fact provide a lot harder Bridgestone tires, which intensified the problem. Marquez lost its main asset, namely braking and to compensate for the loss, too much to risk, which ended in falls.
After returning to the machine from season 2014 the situation has improved, but the chances of comeback was gone. Finally, in the general classification he took third place with the acquis five victories. In conjunction with the problems of Dani Pedrosa, who lost the first half of the season by the syndrome “arm pump”, Honda has also Yamaha in the constructors’ championship.
In an interview, Marquez said: – ,, in 2013 and 2014 he had a great motorcycle and everything went in the right direction. During winter testing in 2015 but we made a mistake and went in the wrong direction in terms of development. Not only I had problems, but also Dani [Pedrosa], which is, after 10 years of experience in MotoGP. The point here is that no single errors appeared. Because they occurred en masse at one time. “
All the teams and the players agree – this year’s electronics a step backwards. Marquez also believes that it will be a major factor in the context of solving the problems of Honda with 2,015 the year: – ,, The difficulty will manage everything properly. It is very easy to make a mistake in such cases. The tires are the same for everyone, but the software is a step backwards compared to what we had last year. “
The need to develop electronics and find the right engine settings may prove to be the toughest nut to crack – ,, We have to find a performance as close as possible to what it was before, but it complicates our efforts related to the development of the whole motorcycle and selecting the appropriate engine configuration. This is what we had a big problem in 2015. But before making this choice, we must achieve a high level of electronics. Only then will we be able to make good decisions on the settings of the drive unit. I do not give a good engine, if it does not interact with electronics. Let’s see how it will. “
Is Marquez comes back with Honda on top? Is solve their problems? The new season starts on 20 March in Qatar, while in February will begin the first pre-season tests.
