Spanish motorcycle racer (born 1993) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Remove ads
Marc Márquez Alentà (born 17 February 1993) is a Spanish Grand Prix motorcycle road racer who races for the Ducati Lenovo Team. Widely considered as one of the greatest motorcycle racers of all time, he previously raced for the Ducati satellite team Gresini in 2024 and Honda's factory team from his MotoGP debut in 2013 until 2023. Born in Cervera, Catalonia, Spain, he is nicknamed the 'Ant of Cervera' worldwide (due to his height of 5 ft 7 in (1.70 m)), and 'el tro de Cervera' in his hometown, meaning the 'Thunder of Cervera'. He is one of four riders to have won world championship titles in three different categories, after Mike Hailwood, Phil Read and Valentino Rossi, and is one of the most successful motorcycle racers of all time, with eight Grand Prix World Championships to his name, six of which are in the premier class. Márquez became the third Spaniard after Àlex Crivillé and Jorge Lorenzo to win the premier class title, and is the most successful Spanish rider in MotoGP to date with 70 wins, most recently the 2025 Czech Grand Prix. In 2013 he became the first rider since Kenny Roberts in 1978 to win the premier class title in his debut season, and the youngest to win the title overall, at 20 years and 266 days of age.[1]
Márquez is often considered one of the greatest innovators of modern MotoGP racing,[2] due to his comparatively exaggerated cornering technique of leaning so far over the bike, that he seems to be "in constant danger of sliding out".[3] He is the older brother of 2014 Moto3 world champion and 2019 Moto2 world champion Álex Márquez.[4]
Márquez won the 2010 125cc World Championship,[5][6] the 2012 Moto2 World Championship,[7][8] and the 2013, 2014, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 MotoGP World Championships. He became the first rider since Kenny Roberts in 1978 to win the premier class title in his rookie season, and the youngest to secure the title overall.[1] In 2014 he defended his title, winning the championship with three rounds to spare,[9] during which he won ten consecutive races. Márquez equalled the all-time Grand Prix record for pole positions at the age of 23 in 2016.[10] Márquez secured the 2016 title with three rounds to spare at Motegi and sealed the title at Valencia in the final round of 2017. He then went on to win the 2018 title with three races to spare and became the third highest all time Grand Prix winner. He secured the 2019 title with four races to spare at the Chang International Circuit in Buriram, Thailand, marking his 8th World Championship and 6th in the Premier Class. Márquez missed almost all of the compressed and delayed 2020 season (he completed 26 laps of the first race, before falling) as well as the start of the 2021 season because of a broken right arm sustained in the 2020 season opener.[11] After returning in the 2021 season, he won three races in Germany, Austin, Misano, and had a further 2nd place in Aragon, but due to him missing the opening two, and the last two races of the season, only finished 7th overall.
After struggling with an increasingly adrift RC213V and further injuries and surgeries in 2022 and 2023, Márquez left the Honda team a year before the end of his contract to sign for the satellite Gresini Ducati outfit for 2024.[12] He acclimatised to his new bike well, frequently standing on the podium and eventually won his first race in 1043 days in Aragon, and followed it with wins in Misano and Phillip Island, the latter featuring a stunning recovery from a terrible start and battle with eventual champion Jorge Martin. His efforts on the year old GP23 were enough to get 3rd place in the 2024 MotoGP Championship Standings and earn himself a factory Ducati contract for 2025,[13] partnering two-time MotoGP champion Francesco Bagnaia. Márquez currently leads the championship in 2025, having won eight Grand Prix and 11 sprint races out of the opening twelve rounds.

125cc World Championship
Born in Cervera, Catalonia, Spain, Márquez made his championship debut on 13 April 2008 at the 125cc 2008 Portuguese Grand Prix at the age of 15 years and 56 days.[14] Márquez achieved his first podium on 22 June 2008 at the British Grand Prix, in just his sixth race in the category, becoming the youngest Spanish rider to take a podium in Grand Prix motorcycle racing.
For 2009, as a factory KTM rider, he scored another podium with his 3rd place at Jerez, before achieving his first pole position at the French Grand Prix at the age of 16 years and 89 days, becoming the youngest Spanish rider to take pole position in a motorcycle racing world championship. He also took pole for the 2009 Malaysian Grand Prix but he retired from both races. His first win came on 6 June 2010 at Mugello, and further victories at Silverstone, Assen and Barcelona in the next three races made Márquez the youngest rider to win four successive races.[15] His fifth win in succession at the Sachsenring was Derbi's 100th victory in Grand Prix racing, and Márquez became the first rider since Valentino Rossi in 1997 to win five successive races in 125cc racing.[16]
He was less successful in the following races, dropping to third in the standings at one point behind Nicolás Terol and Pol Espargaró after being involved in an accident with Randy Krummenacher at the first corner at the Aragon Grand Prix.[17] Four successive wins from Motegi onwards had moved Márquez into a 17-point lead over Terol with only one round to go. At Estoril, the race was red-flagged due to rain with Márquez running second to Terol. When returning to the grid for the second race, Márquez fell on the sighting lap and had to return to the pits. With repairs, Márquez started at the back of the field having not made it out of the pit lane before it closed five minutes prior to the start. Despite this, Márquez recovered to win the race and thus extend his lead before the Valencia finale. His tenth victory of the season moved him to within one of tying the record set by Rossi in 1997.[18] He would fall short of tying it, as he was fourth at the final race in Valencia to become the second-youngest World Champion after Loris Capirossi, winning the smallest category at just 17 years and 263 days.[5][6]
Moto2 World Championship
Márquez moved into the Moto2 class for 2011, the first of an expected two-year deal,[19] as the sole rider of the new team Monlau Competición, run by his manager Emilio Alzamora. He finished 21st in Portugal, before taking his first victory in the class at the French Grand Prix.[20] At his home race in Catalonia, Márquez finished second behind championship leader Stefan Bradl, before another fall at the Silverstone, having started from his first Moto2 pole position. With Bradl taking his fourth victory in the first six races, Márquez trailed him by 82 points at the end of the weekend.[21] Márquez made a mid-season surge up the championship standings, winning six of the next seven races to move within six points of Bradl in the championship standings.[22] In the Japanese Grand Prix, Márquez took his seventh pole position of the season but finished second to Andrea Iannone,[23] but that finish combined with a fourth place for Bradl, allowed Márquez to take the championship lead by a point.[24] At the Australian Grand Prix, Márquez was involved in an incident with Ratthapark Wilairot during free practice; Márquez crashed into the back of Wilairot after the session had been concluded, and for riding in an "irresponsible manner", was given a one-minute time penalty onto his qualifying time.[25][26] The penalty ensured Márquez would start the race from last on the grid, but he made his way through the field, eventually finishing the race in third place. Prior to the Malaysian Grand Prix, Márquez confirmed that he would remain in Moto2 for the 2012 season,[27] after rumours of a move into the MotoGP class. Márquez's race weekend was hampered in the opening minutes of the first free practice session, as he crashed on a damp patch of asphalt.[28] After sitting out two further practice sessions, Márquez completed two laps in the qualifying session, but his times were only good enough for 36th on the grid. He did not start the race, as he failed a medical examination prior to the warm-up on race morning.[29] Márquez attended the final race of the season in Valencia, in the hope of being fit to compete, but withdrew due to his continued vision problems, giving Bradl the title.[30]
In 2012, Márquez won the Moto2 championship title after a season-long battle with fellow Spanish rider Pol Espargaró. A 3rd place for Márquez at the Australian Grand Prix, despite a win for Espargaró[31] was enough to give him his second world title, before moving into the premier class for the 2013 season.[32] He took his last victory in the class at the Valencian Grand Prix, the last event of the season, despite starting from 33rd on the grid. This performance, which involved overtaking 20 bikes on the first lap alone, became the biggest comeback in the sport's history.[33] He finished the season with nine race wins, and only finished off the podium in three races, setting records for the class that still stand. Márquez's result was enough to give Suter the constructors' title for the class.
MotoGP World Championship
Repsol Honda Team (2013–2023)
On 12 July 2012, it was announced that Márquez had signed a two-year contract with the Repsol Honda team in MotoGP, replacing the retiring Casey Stoner and joining teammate Dani Pedrosa, from 2013 onwards.[34][35]
Márquez tested the Honda RC213V for the first time in Valencia after the end of the 2012 championships lapping just over a second slower than his teammate and compatriot Dani Pedrosa who topped the time sheets.[36] Márquez was again impressive during the first official MotoGP testing at Sepang where he finished the first two days of testing at third position just behind Pedrosa and Jorge Lorenzo and ahead of Valentino Rossi in fourth before swapping places with Rossi on the final day.[37] Márquez also did a race simulation during the closing stages of the session and his timings were consistent and phenomenal for a rookie. Márquez continued his impressive form in the private test of Honda at Austin where he topped the timesheets all three days.
2013
Márquez started the 2013 season with a podium finish in Qatar. He qualified sixth and eventually finished third behind Jorge Lorenzo and Valentino Rossi.[38] At the second round of the championship at the new Circuit of the Americas in Texas, Márquez beat his teammate Dani Pedrosa and became the first winner at the new track. In doing this Márquez became the youngest ever MotoGP race winner at 20 years, 63 days, beating Freddie Spencer's 30-year-old record.[39]
Márquez slipped during the third free practice session without getting injured or damaging his bike and eventually qualified third fastest at Jerez. Márquez finished the race in second position behind teammate Dani Pedrosa.[40] At Le Mans, Márquez took the second pole of his short MotoGP career, 0.03 seconds ahead of Lorenzo. Márquez suffered a bad start to the race and spent many laps in the lower half of the top 10 however by mid-race he began to find his rhythm and progressed forward. Márquez overtook Andrea Dovizioso with only two laps to go in the race to claim his fourth podium finish in as many races, tying Max Biaggi's record from 1998.[41] Márquez endured a tough weekend at Mugello. After crashing his Repsol Honda on Friday morning Márquez crashed again on Friday afternoon, he had a third crash on Saturday morning practice but recovered to qualify on the second row for the race. He suffered his 4th crash of the weekend with only 3 laps to go in the race; his first non-finish since joining the premier class.[42]
At Catalonia, Márquez finished the race in 3rd place.[43] At Assen, Márquez suffered a huge highside in morning practice causing small fractures in the little finger of his right hand and also his left big toe. He finished the race in 3rd place.[44] At Sachsenring, following injuries to main rivals Pedrosa and Lorenzo, Márquez took his 3rd MotoGP pole position. After an average start he worked his way to the front to lead by the end of lap five and was never again headed despite a strong late race charge from Cal Crutchlow to win by 1.5 seconds.[45] At Laguna Seca, Márquez replicated the overtake that Rossi made on Casey Stoner at the same corner in 2008 to pass Rossi. He won his third race of the year to extend his championship lead to 16 points over Dani Pedrosa.[46]
At Indianapolis, Márquez grabbed pole position by 0.5 seconds from Jorge Lorenzo. In the race Márquez made an average get away and dropped behind Lorenzo and Pedrosa. On lap 12 Márquez passed Lorenzo for the lead. Lorenzo and Pedrosa were able to keep pace with Márquez for a few laps but in the final few the gap opened and Márquez took his 4th win of the year by just over 3 seconds.[47] At Brno, the race saw an intense battle between Márquez and Lorenzo. Lorenzo made a great start off the line and led the race at the first corner. The pair proceeded to swap places on various occasions, with the final pass coming at Turn 3 with just under four laps to go; Márquez became the first rider to win four consecutive races since Valentino Rossi in 2008.[48]
At Silverstone, during Sunday morning warm up, Márquez crashed his bike and dislocated his shoulder. The race was a fight between Márquez and Lorenzo in the early laps as they pulled away from the field. In the final laps the two front runners traded places and paint; Márquez passed Lorenzo with only a few corners remaining but was repassed and Márquez finished second.[49] At Misano, Márquez was atop the standings once again by over half a second over Lorenzo to claim pole position. Márquez finished the race in second place behind Lorenzo.[50] At Aragon, Márquez started from pole for the seventh time in 2013. Again Márquez lost the lead to Lorenzo in the first corner. Márquez found himself 2 seconds behind Lorenzo but soon caught up with Lorenzo and eventually crossed the line over one second ahead of him to record his sixth victory of the season. With four races left, Márquez had 278 points, 39 ahead of second-place Lorenzo.[51]
At Sepang, Márquez took his fourth consecutive pole position. In the race Márquez made another poor start and was fighting with Rossi for third and fourth places in the first laps of the race. Márquez finished the race in second place.[52] At Phillip Island in Australia, Márquez was disqualified from the race, reducing his championship lead over Lorenzo (who won) from 43 points to 18 with two rounds to go.[53] At Motegi, Márquez recovered from a heavy fall on raceday morning to finish second behind Lorenzo.[54] The result trimmed his championship lead to 13 points, meaning a fourth-place finish at Valencia would be sufficient to crown him champion even if Lorenzo won. Márquez started the race on pole, but had a bad start and fell to third. Márquez then let Dani Pedrosa do most of the early attacking on Jorge Lorenzo; Lorenzo then pushed on after a scare to win the race, Pedrosa and Márquez came second and third respectively, which was enough for Márquez to become champion, the youngest in series history.[55]
2014
The 2014 season started well for Márquez producing fastest times on all three days of the first Malaysian test. He then suffered a broken right leg and was unable to take part in the second Malaysian test or the Phillip Island tyre test.

The first race of the season was held at Losail in Qatar. Márquez progressed steadily through the events practice sessions and showed strong pace on Saturday afternoon to take pole position. During the race he made an average start dropping to 4th place on lap one, Márquez gradually worked his way to the front of the race and enduring a tense battle with Valentino Rossi for the second half of the race, ultimately winning by 0.259 seconds.[56] He also went on to win the next five rounds in Texas,[57] Argentina,[58] Spain,[59] France,[60] and Italy,[61] all from pole position.
At the Catalan Grand Prix, Márquez failed to take pole position – qualifying third after crashing during the session – but after holding off attacks from teammate Pedrosa, and Yamaha pairing Jorge Lorenzo and Rossi, Márquez was able to win his seventh consecutive race, extending his championship lead to 58 over Rossi.[62] With younger brother Álex winning the earlier Moto3 race, the Márquez brothers became the first siblings to win Grand Prix world championship races on the same day.[63] The brothers repeated the feat at the Dutch TT two weeks later.[64] At the German Grand Prix, Márquez again won the race, thereby becoming the youngest rider to win nine consecutive races in the premier class.[65]
With a tenth successive victory coming at Indianapolis, Márquez became the third rider to achieve such a feat in the premier class, after Mick Doohan and Giacomo Agostini.[66]
Márquez suffered his first defeat of the season at Brno,[67] but won the following race at Silverstone, defeating Jorge Lorenzo.[68] At Misano, Márquez crashed while battling for the race lead with Valentino Rossi; he remounted and – with a last-lap retirement for Aleix Espargaró – was able to score one championship point.[69] Márquez and Pedrosa crashed in heavy rain late in the race at Aragon and finished 13th[70] and 14th, with Lorenzo winning his first race of the year after he stopped earlier from third position to change to his wet-setup motorcycle.[71] Márquez clinched his second title at Motegi with three rounds remaining.[9][72] At Phillip Island, Márquez took his 12th pole position of the season, matching Casey Stoner's record from 2011, but he crashed out while leading the race,[73] his first non-finish since the 2013 Italian Grand Prix. At Sepang, Márquez broke Stoner's record, with his 13th pole position of the season and his 50th Grand Prix pole position. He took his 12th win of the season, matching Mick Doohan's record of most premier class victories in a single season, from 1997.[74] Márquez's result was also good enough for Honda to claim the manufacturers' championship, with a race to spare.[75] At the final race in Valencia, Márquez broke Doohan's record, with his 13th win of the season.[76]
2015

The 2015 MotoGP season started off with Márquez, once again, being the favourite to take the Championship, but he started slowly with a fifth-place finish in Qatar, after a mistake at Turn 1 dropped him to the back of the 25-rider field.[77] He won the second race of the season in Texas, his third successive triumph at the Circuit of the Americas.[78] In Argentina, Márquez, started from pole position, and then led the race with a maximum lead of four seconds. However, Valentino Rossi closed the gap and on lap 22 caught up to Márquez. The two riders made contact at Turn 5 with two laps remaining, with Márquez crashing out of the race to record his first non-finish since the 2014 Australian Grand Prix.[79] He finished second behind Jorge Lorenzo in Spain, despite riding with a fractured finger on his left hand after a dirt-track accident, a week before the race.[80] In France, Márquez took his third pole position of the season, but dropped down to seventh place at the start. He overtook Cal Crutchlow, who crashed out of the race, and on lap 22, Márquez struggled during a hard battle for fourth place with Bradley Smith and Andrea Iannone, who was riding despite his injured left shoulder, and finally Márquez finished in fourth place ahead of Iannone.[81]
Márquez failed to finish the races in Italy[82] and Catalunya,[83] but returned to the podium with a second-place finish at Assen,[84] after a race-long battle with Rossi. Márquez took successive victories in Germany,[85] and Indianapolis,[86] before a second-place finish at Brno.[87] Márquez crashed out at Silverstone in wet conditions,[88] but won at Misano.[89] Márquez crashed out at Motorland Aragon,[90] and a fourth-place finish in Motegi ended his hopes of retaining the title.[91] In his 130th start, Márquez achieved his 50th Grand Prix win – becoming the ninth rider to reach that mark, and the youngest to do so,[92] at 22 years, 243 days – with a final-lap pass on Lorenzo at the Australian Grand Prix.[93] Márquez crashed out in Malaysia after a collision with Valentino Rossi. The incident was reviewed by Race Direction after the race, where Rossi was given three penalty points – enough to enforce a start from the back of the grid for the final race in Valencia.[94] Márquez finished second to Lorenzo in Valencia, with Lorenzo taking the world title.[95]
2016
Having started off the year with a third in Qatar and a win in flag to flag Argentina due to tyre problems. Márquez made it two wins in a row with a dominant performance at the Grand Prix of the Americas in Texas with 6 second win over Lorenzo to claim an early championship lead.[96] The first European race was held in Jerez in Spain was the first real test of Márquez' new mentality of patience and he proved it by finishing third in his home Grand Prix behind Yamaha men Rossi and Lorenzo. Le Mans was not a good race for Márquez, as his Honda suffered from a lack of acceleration leading him to push in the braking zones to try remain in the podium battle. He ultimately finished thirteenth following a crash with Ducati's Andrea Dovizioso in turn 7 with thirteen laps remaining in the race.
After the bad result in France, Márquez and his team worked to improve the results and maintain the leadership. Their work gave them three second places in the next three races, the Italian Grand Prix, Spanish Grand Prix, and Dutch TT and first place in GoPro Motorrad Grand Prix Deutschland at the Sachsenring.
After these four good results, he slowed down with a fifth position at the Red Bull Ring in Austria, followed by a third position in Brno and two fourth positions at Silverstone and Misano. But then came the Aragon Grand Prix which Márquez felt really comfortable in. He said he thought it suits his riding style better[97] and proved it by winning the race.
Márquez clinched his third MotoGP title and fifth world title overall at Motegi, Japan with three rounds remaining after Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo crashed out of the race. Márquez' team created a T-shirt with the logo "Give me five" to celebrate his fifth world title overall. The 3 last races had been at Australia, Malaysia and Valencia. At the Australian Grand Prix he crashed out of the race while leading,[98] he then crashed while chasing the leading trio at the Malaysian Grand Prix in tricky wet conditions but remounted the bike and finished in 11th position adding 5 more points to his points tally.[99]
Márquez finished the 2016 season with a second place at the Valencian Community motorcycle Grand Prix, after struggling to get past the likes of Valentino Rossi and Andrea Iannone in the first part of the race. Márquez managed to break away from them in the second half of the race and he began cutting down the gap to the race leader Jorge Lorenzo lap by lap which proved futile as the race drew to a close with Lorenzo crossing the finish line a second ahead of him.[100]
2017
Márquez started the 2017 season with a 4th-place finish in Qatar, followed by a crash while leading in Argentina. He took his first win of the year in Texas, followed by 2nd place behind teammate Pedrosa at Jerez. He then suffered a second crash of the season in France, followed by a disappointing 6th-place finish at Mugello, struggling in both races with the Honda's lack of acceleration off the corners. He finished second in Catalunya, despite suffering several crashes through practice and qualifying. He then recorded another podium finish in the Netherlands, beating Andrea Dovizioso and Cal Crutchlow in a close battle at the end of the race.
However, from then onwards fortunes started to swing in Márquez' favor, taking his eighth consecutive victory at the Sachsenring in Germany, at the same time taking the lead of the championship. He then scored back-to-back victories in the Czech Republic, after outfoxing his rivals by pitting early for slick tires on a drying track. A week later in Austria he narrowly lost out to Dovizioso in a thrilling race. He then suffered a rare engine failure at Silverstone, while Dovizioso took another victory, leaving the pair tied on points. He then fought back by taking back-to-back wins; first in a wet race in Misano, and then at his home race at Aragón. In Japan, he was again beaten in a last lap fight by Dovizioso, in a similar situation to Austria, but won a week later in Australia, in what many felt was one of the greatest races in recent years, while Dovizioso finished 13th after running off track. Márquez missed out on sealing the title in Malaysia, finishing fourth while Dovizioso won, meaning the title would go to the last round in Valencia. Márquez started the race from pole, but narrowly avoided crashing after a dramatic save at turn one, dropping from 1st to 5th position. However, moments later Dovizioso crashed at turn eight, immediately handing Márquez his 6th world title.
2018

Márquez dominated the 2018 season, in spite of the narrow time margins in the MotoGP field, increasing his number of race wins compared to the previous two championship seasons. He started the year off by narrowly falling short of Andrea Dovizioso off the final corner in Qatar, before a controversial performance resulting in three penalties and causing Valentino Rossi to crash led to Márquez being stripped of a fifth-place finish in Argentina. Following a grid penalty of three positions for impeding Maverick Viñales costing Márquez pole position in the United States.
Márquez followed that win up by winning at Jerez, surviving a high-speed slide following gravel on the track following a crash for Thomas Lüthi. He also scored another win at Le Mans. Both wins were his first on the respective circuits for four years and gave him a commanding championship lead. Due to a crash at Mugello that lead dropped, before a 2nd-place finish in Catalonia, and wins at Assen and Sachsenring led to the commanding advantage being restored. The Sachsenring was among his most hard-fought in terms of his nine wins on the track, while he led a massive pack at Assen.
After the summer break, Ducati won successive races at Brno and in Austria. Márquez finished third in the Czech event, whereas he narrowly lost to Jorge Lorenzo on the final lap in Austria. With the Brno race winner Dovizioso finishing third in Austria, the championship lead remained strong. Following the British event being cancelled due to dangerous track conditions, Ducati took the third consecutive win at Misano with Dovizioso leading Márquez across the line.
Márquez sealed the championship after three successive hard-fought wins in duels with Dovizioso. The races at Aragon, Thailand and Japan all had in common that Dovizioso led from early in the race, until Márquez made successful late passes and held the Italian rider off. In Japan, Dovizioso fell on the penultimate lap trying to catch Márquez to attempt a re-pass, which left him without points and sealed Márquez' title once he dropped back out of the points, with Márquez cruising home for his third consecutive win and eighth overall. With three rounds to spare, Márquez reached his fifth overall MotoGP title, and sealed a third title in a row, the first rider to do so since Valentino Rossi won five in a row in the early 2000s.
He qualified on pole position in Australia, but in lap 7 he was overtaken by Andrea Dovizioso and Jack Miller, and three laps later the rear end of Márquez' bike was struck by Johann Zarco, which caused Zarco to crash and Márquez seat to malfunction, ending his race. In Malaysia, he started on seventh place, but took a ninth victory after race leader Valentino Rossi crashed out in a close battle with Márquez, who had chased him down to just a few tenths of a second, finishing only in 18th place. However, at the final race of the season at Valencia, he crashed out of the race having chosen harder wet tyres than the opposition on the soaked track.
At the end of the season, Márquez' MotoGP victory total, 44, placed him in the top five in wins all time and second for Honda in the premier class.[101]
2019
Recovering from a shoulder surgery, Márquez had a compromised pre-season, but still managed to take the Qatar opener to the final corner, where he ultimately fell short to Dovizioso for a second consecutive time. In Argentina, Márquez completely dominated the race from start to finish, cruising to victory with a sizeable margin. While leading in the United States for a seventh consecutive season, Márquez suddenly crashed out, attributed to a problem with the engine brake in heavy braking zones.[102] Márquez avenged the crash by reclaiming the title lead with a composed win at Jerez, where he led from start to finish. He then won in France, pulling away after an early fight for position up front with Jack Miller.
After having to settle for second at Mugello in a three-man battle with Ducati duo Danilo Petrucci, who won the race and Dovizioso, Márquez narrowly escaped the pile-up triggered by Jorge Lorenzo losing the front end at the hairpin in Barcelona on the second lap through having overtaken Dovizioso seconds before the impact (involving Vinales, Dovizioso and lastly, Valentino Rossi, all fell in the same accident). With his four closest rivals being taken out at once, Márquez controlled the race and won with a sizeable margin, his second career win at his home region's Grand Prix. He further increased his title lead through a second-place finish at Assen, where he finished second behind Maverick Viñales, who was 100 points adrift in the standings going into the race, whereas the closer title rivals all had difficult races. Márquez fully dominated the Sachsenring round for his tenth consecutive win in all categories on the circuit, sealing his fifth win of the season and a commanding title lead over the summer break.
Márquez took his 50th career MotoGP win at the Czech round after a pole position by 2.5 seconds in tricky half-wet conditions and leading the race from start to finish.
Márquez won his 6th premier class championship and 8th world championship after winning a last lap battle with Fabio Quartararo in the 2019 Thailand MotoGP at the Buriram International Circuit.[103] Márquez closed out the season in commanding fashion, winning three of the four final races after his championship had been sealed. In the penultimate round, however, he did injure his other shoulder in qualifying. He recovered to finish second in the race, but required post-season surgery once more.[104] Márquez ended the season with 12 wins and 420 points, placing him 151 points ahead of Andrea Dovizioso. This meant Márquez had more than six race wins worth of points championship margin.
2020
In the pre-season, Márquez signed a new four-year deal with Honda, extending his stay with the marque until the end of 2024.[105] This unusually long contract took Márquez out of the market for the normal bi-annual contract cycle, and also for the 2023 season. In the first round of the championship in Jerez, he fell off his bike while chasing Fabio Quartararo for the lead of the race. The fall broke the humerus in his right arm and he did not finish the race, which was won by Quartararo. Márquez returned to Jerez for the Andalucía GP, only a few days after his first surgery, on 21 July 2020, to repair his broken humerus.[106] He participated in FP4 of the Saturday of the race weekend, only to declare that he had too much pain in his recently injured arm.[107] He withdrew from the GP, as Quartararo went on to win again. Márquez missed the rest of the year, and the first two races of the next season.
2021
Márquez was expected to make his return in 2021. After missing the opening two races held in Qatar, he announced his return ahead of the Portuguese Grand Prix in Portimão, ending in a seventh place, taking nine points. After a ninth-place finish in Jerez, Márquez suffered three consecutive DNFs (including one in Le Mans, where he had found himself leading the race in rainy conditions). For the German Grand Prix, Márquez qualified on the second row. In the race, he got into the lead in the early laps and held onto it, to take his first win in 581 days, and his 11th consecutive win at the Sachsenring. Márquez followed this up with two point scoring finishes in Assen and Austria, a 2nd place in Aragón, a 4th place in Rimini, and then consecutive wins at Austin and Misano.[108] Despite his two wins, he was eliminated from the championship contention, and so he sat out the final two races of the season in Portimao and Valencia, choosing to focus on the total rehabilitation for next season. Márquez still ended the year with four podiums, three of which were victories, 142 points, and 7th in the rider's championship. During the 2021 season he crashed a total of 22 times in 14 races.[109]
2022

At the first race of the season at Losail, Márquez finished in fifth place.
During practice for the second GP of the season, the Indonesian Grand Prix at Mandalika, Márquez crashed three times in practice. After a fourth crash, a violent highside during a warm-up session prior to the race,[110] he was rushed to hospital. He was uninjured but declared unfit for the race. After further checks in Spain he was diagnosed with diplopia, a condition he had suffered with before. His absence from the third race of the season, the Argentine Grand Prix, was covered by Honda test rider Stefan Bradl.[111] Márquez was later sidelined indefinitely beginning with the Catalan round, after having a fourth surgery on his right humerus at the Mayo Clinic to correct a 30-degree rotation of the bone.[112][113] He was replaced for all races by Honda test rider Stefan Bradl.[114][115] Despite missing 5 of 11 races, Márquez remained the top Honda rider in the standings going into the season's summer break. Márquez returned to racing at the Aragon Grand Prix, but championship leader Fabio Quartararo crashed into the back of Márquez, taking Quartararo out of the race, followed by Marquez colliding with Takaaki Nakagami due to Quartararo's bodywork trapped in a wheel, both retiring. A week later he would achieve the 91st pole position of his career at the Japanese Grand Prix in wet conditions, after almost three years without a pole. He finished the race in 4th. He would later achieve the feat of 100 podiums in the premier class at the Australian Grand Prix, taking Honda's second podium of the year in a race-long fight that saw him narrowly lose out to the Suzuki of Alex Rins, who took the manufacturer's final victory in MotoGP before joining Marquez in the Honda stable with the LCR team for 2023. Ultimately, in spite of not starting 8 of the 20 rounds, Marquez would finish the season in 13th place in the standings with 113 points, more than double the points that any of his Honda stablemates could achieve.
2023
Márquez stayed with the Repsol Honda team for the 2023 season. At the opening race in Portugal, he took pole position and a 3rd-place finish in the first ever MotoGP Sprint Race. However, in the main race, he crashed into Miguel Oliveira, receiving a contentious penalty that the Honda team challenged. Márquez was injured ruling him out of competing at the second race in Argentina, and the third in the United States.[116] Márquez missed the fourth race in Spain, where his race-slot was taken over by Iker Lecuona as a nominated replacement rider.[117][118]
Márquez' penalty was unable to be imposed due to his non-appearance at races, and was referred to the MotoGP Court of Appeal,[119] after which it was delayed.[120]
The Court of Appeal rejected the race organiser's attempts to impose a sanction on Márquez and dismissed the case, after which he returned to racing at the French GP held over 13/14 May.[121][122] At Mugello, Márquez qualified in P2 before claiming P7 in the sprint, after being pushed wide in a racing incident with Jack Miller.[123] [124] He crashed out of the main race while chasing Luca Marini for P3.[125]
At the German GP, Márquez hit the nadir of his MotoGP career. At a circuit he had not failed to win since 2010, Márquez crashed five times across the weekend, one of which collected Johann Zarco in practice at turn 1 in a terrifying incident that destroyed Zarco's bike and which both were lucky to walk away from relatively unscathed. After a particularly nasty wobble coming down the Ralf Waldmann-Kurve in practice, Márquez appeared to stick his middle finger up in response to the vicious handling of his RC213V. After multiple qualifying crashes, Marquez cruised to a limp 11th place in the sprint, unwilling to push his Honda, before crashing again in the Sunday morning warm-up and withdrawing from the event. He subsequently withdrew mid-way through the following Dutch TT weekend, citing the same injuries.
At the second round after the summer break at the 2023 Austrian motorcycle Grand Prix, Márquez ended his 7-race long streak of non-finishes in main races, finishing in 12th place.
At the Japanese GP, Márquez scored his first podium since the previous year in Phillip Island. After qualifying 7th, as the only Honda in Q2, he finished 7th in the sprint race before wrestling his Honda onto the podium in the main race, which was cut short due to extreme wet weather just as Márquez was hounding Bagnaia for second. It was his last podium on a Honda before his switch to Ducati. Despite his prolonged absence and failure to finish a Grand Prix until round 10 in Austria, Márquez finished as the top Honda in the standings in 14th place, as his teammate Joan Mir and LCR rider Alex Rins battled their own injuries caused by the now hugely uncompetitive and unpredictable RC213V.
On 4 October 2023, Honda announced that they had prematurely terminated their contract with Marc Márquez by mutual agreement, and he would be leaving the team at the end of the season, joining the Gresini Racing MotoGP team.[126]
Gresini Racing MotoGP (2024)
2024
Márquez's move to Gresini was announced ahead of the Indonesian round on 15 October 2023. Following his desire to part from Honda at the end of the 2023 season, he joined the Ducati satellite team on a one-year contract,[127] replacing Fabio Di Giannantonio and partnered by his younger brother, Álex Márquez.[128] Honda team manager Alberto Puig confirmed Marc Márquez would be allowed to test a Ducati at the scheduled official test at the Circuit Ricardo Tormo in Valencia, Spain, in November, following the season-end race weekend.[129]
In the Valencia Test, he finished 4th with a time of 1:29.424 and completed a total of 49 laps.
Márquez made a steady start to his 2024 campaign finishing P5 in the Qatar sprint and P4 in the race.[130] In his second sprint race with Ducati, Marc finished in P2 at Portugal. Bagnaia and Márquez collided while fighting for P5 in the main race, with Marc finishing the race in P16.[131] Marc finished the sprint in P2 once again at the Circuit of the Americas, before crashing out of the lead in the main race, due to an apparent issue with his front brake.[132]
At Jerez, Márquez claimed his first pole position with Ducati, his 93rd pole in GP racing. The sprint race was a battle of attrition with only 16 of the 25 entrants finishing the race. Márquez crashed out of the lead in the sprint race before recovering to P6.[133] Márquez finished P2 in the main race, calling it the best podium of his career[134] after a duel with reigning world champion Pecco Bagnaia for P1. At Le Mans, Marc finished P2 from P13 on the grid in both races, taking him to third in the championship, behind Bagnaia and Martin.[135] Barcelona saw a similar performance, with Marc finishing P2 in the sprint and P3 in the main race after starting P14 on the grid.[136] Marc continued his consistent string of performances at Mugello, taking 22 points over the weekend. He finished 2nd in the sprint behind Bagnaia and 4th in the main race, holding 3rd for several laps but beaten by Bastianini towards the closing stages.[137]
Marc faced a challenging weekend at Assen. He crashed out of the sprint and finished 4th in the main race, before being given a 16-second penalty for tyre-pressure infringement, demoting him to 10th.[138] A heavy crash in practice at Sachsenring left Márquez with a broken finger and contused ribs. He qualified in 13th before taking 6th in the sprint and 2nd in the main race, behind Bagnaia who took the championship lead from Martin. In the same race, Márquez and his younger brother Álex became the first siblings to stand on a MotoGP podium together since 1997. [139] Sprint DNFs and 4th place race finishes at Silverstone and Red Bull Ring saw Marc slip to 4th in the championship, behind Bastianini. He strung together a dominant weekend at Aragon, claiming pole position by 8 tenths, his first sprint win, and his first race win with Ducati. It was his 60th win in MotoGP and his first MotoGP victory in 1043 days.[140] Marquez completed the European leg of the tour with another win at the San Marino GP and a 3rd-place finish at the Emilia Romagna GP.[141][142]
At Indonesia, Márquez showed decent pace through practice, but failed to set a lap time in Q2, crashing out twice in the session. Starting from 12th on the grid, he fought his way to 3rd in the sprint race. In the main race, he suffered from a mechanical failure on lap 12, setting his bike on fire and causing him to retire from the race.[143]
At Phillip Island, Márquez started in P2 on the grid but experienced a bad start after his helmet tear-off landed under his rear tire, falling to under 10th initially but recovering to 6th position in the first lap. By lap 7, he set the fastest lap record and pulled into 3rd position, eventually attacking Pecco Bagnaia in lap 11 and leader Jorge Martin in the last 4 laps, winning the race.[144] Ending the Asian leg of the calendar, Márquez crashed while running for podium positions at both Buriram and Sepang. He was able to remount and finish both races in 11th and 12th place respectively, keeping him in 3rd place in the standings ahead of Bastianini, heading into the final round of the championship.[145][146]
Despite struggling for race pace during practice,[147] Márquez took his 20th podium of the season after finishing 2nd in the Solidarity GP. He finished 3rd in the championship, his best championship placement since 2019.[148]
Ducati Lenovo Team (2025–)
2025
On 5 June 2024, it was announced that Márquez will race alongside the three-time World Champion Francesco Bagnaia in the Factory Ducati Team, replacing outgoing Enea Bastianini, who signed for Red Bull KTM Tech3 for 2025,[149] and beating Jorge Martín to the seat as he defected to Aprilia.[150] He made his debut on a factory Ducati in the post-season test in Barcelona.
After strong tests in Sepang and Buriram, Márquez immediately stamped his authority over the grid in the early rounds, taking four out of the first five pole positions, winning the first six sprint races, and three grand prix in Thailand, Argentina and Qatar (the latter being his first win at the circuit since his dominant 2014 season). His success saw him lead the championship for the first time since 2019, and the wins in Argentina and Qatar moved him level and then past the 90 career wins of the legendary Ángel Nieto. However, unforced crashes while leading comfortably in the USA and while running third at Jerez meant he actually trailed his brother Álex Márquez in the championship by a point heading to Le Mans. There, the championship pivoted as Marc won the sprint race from his brother, regaining the championship lead, and then finished second to Johann Zarco in the Grand Prix while his brother crashed twice and scored no points, giving Marc a 22 point lead.
At Silverstone, Márquez failed to win the sprint race for the first time all season, finishing second behind Alex. In a Grand Prix where Ducati struggled, and ailing teammate Francesco Bagnaia fell to the midfield and subesequently crashed out, Marc salvaged a third place behind the Aprillia of Marco Bezzecchi and the Honda of Zarco, extending his championship lead over Alex, who finished fifth. He was fortunate to do so, having crashed from the lead before an early red flag for an oil spillage caused by Franco Morbidelli facilitated a complete race restart, allowing Márquez to take his original grid position of fourth.
At Aragon, Márquez topped every single session, becoming the first person to do so since himself at the 2015 German GP a decade earlier. It was his first Grand Prix win in four rounds, and swung momentum in Márquez's favour heading to Mugello, which was a recent stronghold of Bagnaia, who had won the previous three Grand Prix at the circuit, and the only two sprint races held there. Marquez, meanwhile, had not won at the circuit since the 2014 edition. Marc promptly dominated the weekend at a circuit he typically struggled at, taking his 100th career pole position, winning the sprint, and then winning the Grand Prix after a hectic battle with Bagnaia and his brother in the early laps, before settling into a lead he would not surrender. It was a fitting 93rd victory for the number 93 at the site of his very first win in the 125cc class fifteen years earlier, and extended his championship lead to 40 points over his brother, with Bagnaia now a massive 110 points behind in a distant third.
Marc continued his winning streak at another typically less favoured circuit in Assen. Despite only qualifying fourth, behind Quartararo, Bagnaia, and his brother, Márquez made strong starts to both the sprint and the Grand Prix to lead both after the opening laps, and after repelling attacks from Alex in the sprint and Bezzecchi in the Grand Prix, he went on to win both races, with his triumph in the main race being his first at the circuit since the 2018 Dutch TT. After an incident between his brother and Pedro Acosta in the Grand Prix that took Alex out, Marc's championship lead was looking increasingly unassailable at 68 points.
At Sachsenring, Márquez took his ninth MotoGP win at the circuit (and twelfth in all classes) in an attritonal race that saw only 10 of the 18 riders finish. Márquez won by six seconds, as the attrition helped his injured brother and Bagnaia into second and third.[151] A win in the sprint race the day before in wet conditions meant Márquez took maximum points for the fourth weekend in a row. His triumph in the Grand Prix was his 69th in MotoGP, which saw him overtake Giacomo Agostini for second in the list of premier class Grand Prix winners.
Brno saw Márquez secure his eighth win of the season, and his fifth in a row, a first for a Ducati rider in MotoGP. This came in spite of a crash in Q2 while on course for pole that left him behind teammate Bagnaia on the grid. It was also his fifth maximum points haul in a row, and with brother Alex failing to score in both races, his championship lead now stands at 120 points.[152]

Perspective
A Roman Catholic, Márquez along with four other MotoGP riders met Pope Francis at the Vatican in September 2018.[166]
Aside from his native tongues of Catalan and Spanish, Márquez is a fluent speaker of English and Italian.[167]
Although Márquez has won several championships, he has always turned down using the number 1 as a racing number, favouring his #93 – which is the year of his birth. The 93 used to be displayed with white text and a red background on his bike and in official merchandise, being compatible with Honda's red-orange-navy blue livery. Upon his switch to Ducati, the 93 became red against the backdrop of the light blue of the Gresini bike. It remained red as Márquez made the switch to the factory Ducati team.
Márquez' father Julià has followed him around the world in his team garage and is a permanent fixture in the Grand Prix paddock, while his mother's appearances are rare. His younger brother Álex Márquez is also a motorcycle racing world champion, having won the Moto3 class in 2014 and the Moto2 class in 2019. The duo became the first pair of brothers to win road racing world championships the same season and repeated the feat again in 2019.[168][169] Five years earlier, Márquez jokingly referred to him preferring bikes over girls in a 2014 interview, but conceded it was a "difficult question" and also added that in spite of him being unafraid on a bike, he'd never go out on a boat at sea.[170]
He lives in his home town of Cervera, with his website citing "training opportunities" on dirt bikes in the location as "ideal".[171] His official fanclub is also located in Cervera, chaired by his uncle Ramón, adjacent to an exhibition at the town museum where memorabilia including championship-winning bikes are displayed. Márquez is also involved with several charities.[172]
He is in a relationship with Gemma Pinto.[173]

Marquez' motif since 2012 has been the Ant. This can be seen on various gloves, helmets and pit boards he and his team uses. The reasoning behind this is that when he started out riding motorcycles, his size was so diminutive that the team had to add ballast to his bikes to compensate for his lack of weight. Therefore, his team nicknamed him an ant in comparison with the animal, which is so small but has the strength to carry 100 times as much as its body weight.[174]
As of October 2018 on the day of his fifth MotoGP title, Márquez had close to 4 million Facebook followers, being one of the largest motor racers and Spanish athletes on the platform.[175] Márquez is a fan of football club FC Barcelona, and has visited the club and its first team in the past.[176]
Márquez was the subject of the 2023 docuseries Marc Márquez: ALL IN, a five-episode series by Prime Video which details Márquez's struggles to return after his career-halting injury.[177][178][179]
