We must be really focused and work well in order to be able to fight for the podium again."BeIn Sports USA provided a rider's view of the circuit:If the Honda rider can get a top-three spot, then it will be difficult for his rivals to make up any significant ground on him.While there is still some way to go in the season and pressure could play a huge part, Marquez has his destiny in his own hands as far as a third title is concerned, and he could deal another blow to the rest of the field with a good result in Czech Republic.Andrea IannoneIannone's victory last time out was his first ever in MotoGP and Ducati's first race win in six years.Is was a significant milestone for both team and rider, and the Italian looked fast in Austria at the Red Bull Ring.Without the pressure of a lack of victories to contend with, Ducati could yet play a huge role in Brno and for the rest of the season.A championship victory is out of the question for Iannone andDovizioso, but if they can breach the podium intermittently in the run-in, it could make a huge difference in the race for the title.Iannone, 27, is clearly on a huge high after Austria and believes Ducati can go well again in Czech Republic, per Geoffrey Dore ofallsportsnews:It is still very difficult to explain my feelings after the win in Austria, but I can only say that it was a truly incredible weekend.Now we go to Brno for the next race and I think that this circuit is also very good for us. Last year I finished fourth despite a technical problem but now we have a good pace for fighting for the podium at every round. For sure also our rivals are very strong at this track but I think there is a good chance for me to score a good result again.If he can split up the likes of Rossi, Marquez and Lorenzo, he could yet play a major role in a crucial race on Sunday.
