Furthermore, even though he arrived in Indonesia on Tuesday (10/10), Marquez admitted that he had not tried typical Indonesian food.
The reason is that racers have to go on a diet ahead of the 2023 Mandalika MotoGP race.
“During the GP (series of races) we only eat European food, rice and chicken breast, that’s our diet, and for the weekend, Sunday, maybe we’ll try Indonesian dessert,” explained Marquez.
Marc Marquez himself is no stranger to Indonesia. While defending the Repsol Honda team, Marquez often visited Indonesia to take part in various activities.
Marquez and Honda even launched a team for MotoGP in Indonesia.
