Forget the title. Maybe even forget about a race win. If Silverstone was the template for the rest of the MotoGP season – and there’s every reason to suspect it was – Marc Marquez is a long shot to finish in the top three overall at this rate
Marc Marquez’s 2024 MotoGP title chances are dwindling with each round of the season, and even finishing in the top three seems unlikely. Despite coming off a track where he hasn’t had much success, his performance on the Ducati is still a work in progress. Marquez is currently 13 points behind Enea Bastianini, making it difficult to close the gap. He is facing challenges from not just two but three riders who are consistently faster than him. Bastianini’s strong performances and the improved Ducati are making it tough for Marquez to compete for the championship. Despite his efforts, Marquez is struggling to keep up with the pace at Silverstone and faces an uphill battle in the remainder of the season.
