Pol Espargaro says he must start copying his Repsol Honda teammate, Marc Marquez, as quickly as possible.
Marquez was back to winning ways after securing another MotoGP win at the Sachsenring.
The Spaniard produced a sensational ride through the 30 lap race to claimed his first win after 581 days.
The victory was an eye-opening moment for Espargaro, who lost 14 seconds behind Marquez.
“In the future, I believe I’m going to just attempt to copy Marc’s setting, Marc’s chassis because he’s using different than us.
“I’m likely to copy his line (direction). Until that moment, i was not so a long way away from rhythm, from lap times, however this race, it’s one step.
“Without a doubt, I’m happy for the team as well as for all of the guys that have been working so much, for Marc. But the point is the fact that for sure Marc shows the performance today from the bike, and I need to be on the level.
“Therefore the best way I see would be to copy his setting, his bike, his chassis as soon as possible,” said the 30-year old rider.
According to Espargaro, all Honda riders, including Alex Marquez and Takaaki Nakagami, don't share the same package.
