The Catalan remains the firm favourite to retain his title and is already pulling clear of his rivals in the overall standings.
However, he had a wobble last time out while struggling to recover from a cold.
Throughout the Italian Grand Prix he faced massive pressure from the Danilo Petrucci and Andrea Dovizioso Ducati tag-team.
Petrucci, 28, eventually crossed the line first for his maiden Grand Prix win. Marquez was second and Dovizioso third.
“Nobody is unbeatable”
Giacomo Agostini
Agostini says Marquez must be tactical and keep adding points to the board.
"Nobody is unbeatable,” he told Spanish daily AS. “The important thing is to be able to win as many races as possible.
“It can happen that you do not win at some point during the championship - he [Marquez] can also get beaten, but once in 10!"

Nevertheless, Agostini concedes that Marquez is the main man in the MotoGP ranks.
But the 76-year-old hopes Ducati - and Suzuki star Alex Rins - can push him all the way.
"In MotoGP there is Marquez, who is currently the strongest,” Agostini added.
“He is the world leader and the defending champion - he is certainly the driver to beat.
“I hope Ducati can try to counteract it, even Suzuki is doing very well.
“[But] in MotoGP, Marquez is very regular.
“If he is not the first, he is second. It is true that anything can happen - but it is clear that Marquez is the favourite.”
Speaking ahead of the Catalan Grand Prix, Marquez warned his rivals he’ll be back to his best.
"We came in top form after Mugello, the bike and I are in a very good position,” the Honda ace said.
“I was able to rest between the two races and I am back to full strength.
“There is always a bit more excitement when the Grand Prix comes home and it's always a pleasure to run in front of all the fans.
“I hope to get another good result, to continue the work we're doing."
