Marc Marquez drove a Formula 1 car back in 2018, and has again been questioned about a future in four-wheel racing.
Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo, two iconic MotoGP riders, have transitioned from motorcycles to cars, with Rossi even planning to compete in the prestigious 24 Hours of Le Mans next year. In a past event, Marc Marquez, another MotoGP champion, had the opportunity to test drive a Red Bull RB8 car in Toro Rosso livery at the Red Bull Ring, supervised by the likes of Helmut Marko, Mark Webber, and Niki Lauda. The possibility of Marquez pursuing a career in Formula 1, following in the footsteps of John Surtees, who achieved success on both two and four wheels, has been raised due to his recent interaction with F1 champion Max Verstappen at Honda Thanks Day. However, Marquez believes that while it was an incredible experience to drive an F1 car and he performed well, mastering street circuits like Monaco requires extraordinary driving skills, and starting at an early age is crucial for success in motorsport.
