Repsol Honda's Marc Marquez is considering a big change to his MotoGP riding style as the way he currently pilots Honda's RC213V has resulted in too many crashes.

The former champion has racked up more spills in 2021 than any other premier clsss rider despite taking part in two rounds less than the competitiomn.

"Yeah, of course there are some doubts and we are working on it," said Marquez said.

"As I said, when I came back in Portimao I expected to come back a little bit faster, especially in the way to ride the bike.

"At the moment I cannot ride like I want, as soon as I try I crash. So, I need to think about riding in another way and I cannot ride in a natural way.

"But for me, the target is to try to find a way, to be competitive, to fight for championships – maybe not with the same riding style, but as we showed today, as we showed in Austria, riding in a different way doesn't mean being slow.

"It's another way we're able to be fast, but we don't have that extra, so we will try in the future. But it's not only me: we need to keep working with the bike, we need to keep working with the team and if I improve a little bit, the bike improves a little bit, we are there with these guys."

Team boss Alberto Puig has stated than even though Marquez is crashing his brains out trying to make the bike competitive, HRC won't change its development direction.
