Marc Marquez overcomes close opposition for Aragon MotoGP pole but “not the smoothest lap of my life”
Marc Marquez secured pole position for the Aragon MotoGP race, maintaining his dominance in the 2024 event with his impressive performance. However, during qualifying, he made a mistake by pushing too hard on his second flying lap, ultimately losing the pole position to his brother, Alex Marquez, and Franco Morbidelli. Despite facing a challenging situation starting from the dirty side of the grid, Marquez managed to reclaim the lead with a narrow 0.260s advantage over Alex. Although not entirely satisfied with his pole lap, Marc remained focused on adjusting his riding style for the main race and the sprint race. On the other hand, Alex, Marc’s main title rival, rebounded from a crash in final practice, securing a spot on the front row and aiming to minimize the points gap between himself and Marc during the race weekend. As Marc starts the Aragon Sprint race with a 24-point lead over Alex in the MotoGP title race, both riders are prepared to give their best performance and compete fiercely on the track.
