Marco Bezzecchi will be eyeing his fourth victory of the
2023 MotoGP season by clinching the Thailand MotoGP.
Most recent race
The Ducati Mooney VR46 Racing Team rider missed out on the Australian MotoGP title which took place on 22 October.
Bezzecchi started on the 10th grid and he narrowly missed out on a podium spot as he finished sixth - collecting 10 important points.
Standings
The former Sky Racing Team VR46 rider remains third on the riders' standings having accumulated 293 points from 16 races.
Bezzecchi is 73 points behind leader Francesco Bagnaia of Ducati and 46 points behind second-placed Jorge Martin of Ducati.
Why Bezzecchi could win the 2023 Thailand MotoGP
The Italian star knows that he cannot afford to drop more points with four races left in the current season.
Bezzecchi, who won this season's Indian MotoGP, Argentine MotoGP and French MotoGP, has what it takes to emerge victorious in this weekend's race.
What did he say?
“I was ready, of course, but if they made this decision it was because of the safety and I think it was the right one," Bezzecchi said after the recent Australian MotoGP.
“I put my leathers on because in any case I have to be ready, but when I arrived at the box, immediately as soon as I came in the door, they told me they had cancelled the race. I said, ‘No, f***, I’ve already put on the suit!’
“I’m very sorry to say this, but for me it was a big luck. It’s a shame because I love this track and I love the people here, and for sure they wanted to have a good show, but for my physical side it’s much better.”
