After a very turbulent year, the leadership and management of Alberto Puig has been questioned a lot, but Marc Marquez doesn't hesitate to support the spanish charge, who he has defended fiercely, praising his role and straightforward nature, something that doesn't always go down well with those who deal with such personalities.
For the former champion, Puig has a great importance in the garage and is determinant, as he explained: 'The people can speak bullshit about Alberto but for me he is crucial, he's crucial because he is honest. When one person is honest and speaks straight to you, normally these people don't have a lot of friends, but Alberto is honest and inside a team a person like this is the most important'.
Marquez then explained that no matter what position someone occupies, Puig says what he has to say, and assured that he is very happy to work with him:
- He doesn’t care if you are a eight time world champion and he doesn’t care if you are an engineer from NASA, he doesn’t care. If he says or he believes that this is not the direction, he will tell you and he’s a person who is helping a lot inside and yeah, I hear many comments about Alberto but I’m really happy with him.
