Misano title win edges closer for Marc Marquez – but he says it’s “impossible”
After winning the Hungarian Grand Prix sprint race at Balaton Park, Marc Marquez’s chances of securing the 2025 MotoGP title early at the Misano round have increased, but he still deems it “impossible.” The factory Ducati rider clinched his 13th sprint victory of the season, leading from start to finish and extending his championship lead by 152 points over his closest rival, Alex Marquez, who finished eighth. Alex Marquez faces a tougher challenge in the upcoming grand prix as he drops three grid places due to an incident during Friday practice. Despite the limited overtaking opportunities at Balaton Park, another victory on Sunday could pave the way for Marc Marquez to potentially wrap up the title in September at Misano, provided he can amass a lead exceeding 222 points by the San Marino Grand Prix’s conclusion with 70 additional points in the next three races and two sprints. However, Marc Marquez remains cautious, considering the upcoming race at a circuit in Barcelona, which he considers a weaker venue for him. Overall, Marc Marquez remains focused on enjoying the present moment and aiming to secure the championship title in a calculated and controlled manner.
