Update on Marc Marquez’s condition after two heavy crashes at Dutch MotoGP
Ducati has given a positive update on Marc Marquez’s condition after heavy crashes during Friday’s practices at the 2025 MotoGP Dutch Grand Prix. The championship leader had a heavy crash in FP1, losing control of his Ducati in Turn 15. Despite the fall, he returned to the session and set the fastest time. Ducati explained the crash was due to a quick downshift causing the rear tyre to lose traction. In a second incident, Marquez lost the front and required assistance from marshals after injuring his lower body. Medical checks confirmed no fractures, allowing Marquez to continue riding on Saturday. He leads the MotoGP standings by 40 points, with his brother Alex Marquez as the closest competitor.
