Marc Marquez doesn’t want to win the MotoGP title in Valentino Rossi’s backyard
Runaway MotoGP championship leader Marc Marquez expressed his reluctance to have a first title opportunity in 2025 at Misano, as it would mean a challenging situation for his brother Alex Marquez.
After securing his seventh consecutive 37-point weekend by dominating the Hungarian Grand Prix, 32-year-old Marquez emerged victorious despite a collision with Marco Bezzecchi on the first lap.
With his nearest rival, Alex Marquez, finishing 14th due to an early crash, Marc Marquez now leads the standings by 175 points and may clinch his seventh premier class title as early as the San Marino Grand Prix.
To achieve this, he must maintain a lead of at least 185 points after the Catalan Grand Prix and increase it to 222 at Misano to secure the championship.
Although he acknowledges his focus shifting towards the championship, Marquez hopes for his first title opportunity to arise at the Japanese or Indonesian Grands Prix instead of Misano to avoid a tough outcome for his brother at Catalunya.”
