MARQUEZ KEEPS SPRINT PODIUM CELEBRATIONS IN CHECK TO CONSERVE ENERGY

Marc Marquez’s subdued reactions to his last two sprint podiums have prompted questions about why he appears so serious. The reason, according to reports, is a deliberate effort to avoid sudden rises and falls in adrenaline so he can preserve energy across the full grand prix weekend. His approach reflects broader changes to both his attitude and daily routine. The available reports do not include a direct quote from Marquez or further details about those changes.
