Smith finished on the podium in Barcelona

125cc World Championship leader Marc Marquez may start to feel the pressure in the battle for the title according to British rival Bradley Smith.

The Spaniard has been in fine form ahead of their next race at the Sachsenring but Smith believes Marquez is not unstoppable.

Smith said "He's not put a foot wrong for the last four races and leads the World Championship.

"It's a new experience I can promise him and extra pressure comes with it."

He added: "We must exploit that pressure and increase it out on the race track starting at the Sachsenring."

"He is beatable and Pol (Espargaro), Nico (Terol) and I have got to work together in a race to put pressure on him."

The Oxfordshire rider trails Marquez in the standings by 38 points with 10 rounds of the championship remaining.
