no need Marc Marquez Add 100 wins and it will happen sooner or later. His goal was above all to win the most special title in his already long sporting career. The number 9 is more than just a number, it’s one of the greatest feats in motorcycle history. Everything turned red, and Bagnaia was victorious as his teammates passed away in agony with white smoke rising from the exhaust. Marc Marquezonce again becoming the MotoGP World Champion for the seventh time. And behind it, joan mille Honda was the perfect rubric, as it was the same one Marc left in good hands, and where the technical “dream team” led by Santi Hernandez remained.

Marc Marquez The reconquest he has been meticulously planning since 2022 culminated this Sunday in Motegi. A change of address from Cervera to Madrid and the surrounding areas, two sporting divorces, long-time manager Emili Alzamora and the team where he won his first six MotoGP titles, Repsol Honda, much suffering and anxiety due to injuries and illnesses that delayed his career for five years, and very happy years. ending.

However, their ending was not a fictional “happy ending” but a very real one. He is the protagonist of one of the greatest stories ever told in the world of motorcycling, the story of someone who almost involuntarily becomes an unstoppable superstar, hits rock bottom, traverses an endless desert, and, if possible, returns to the top with even greater determination. After the storm, peace returned to Marc Márquez’s life, and five years later, his title box moved again. Dorna and Liberty Media want to overshadow Marquez, but this Sunday at Motegi Marc Marquez won his ninth MotoGP title and seventh in MotoGP.

Perhaps he never dreamed of it, Marc Marquez Such a campaign was expected to culminate in “La Reconquista.” No driver in any of the three categories won the world title with five races remaining. His results in 2019, Mick Doohan’s in 1997, and Valentino Rossi’s performances in 2002 and 2005, which are currently considered the best in the top class, were not at this level. Despite missing these five races, Marc Marquez already holds the title with points, 11 wins, 15 podiums and eight pole positions. To this you have to add 14 sprint wins out of a possible 16. This allowed him to win 10 of his 16 Grand Prix doubles.

Out of his last eight crowns, he has won the race and won the title only three times, winning his fifth title at Motegi in 2016, and the last two, at Motegi in 2018 and Buriram in 2019, winning the title at the first chance on all three occasions. But this time it was not the time to take risks, he had to be tied up as soon as possible in order to be at peace with himself.

He had already made a big start on Sunday with a perfect warm-up, honing the last details of his driving and was three-and-a-half seconds clear of second-placed Aldeguer and seven tenths clear of teammate Pecco Bagnaia, who is likely to be his main rival at Motegi and who has two wins in 2024 and who had already signed up for the Sprint on Saturday.

46,303 spectators were waiting for Marc Márquez’s fourth coronation at Motegi, especially the start with Bagnaia on pole, Joan Mir second on the front row and Marc Márquez third. Even more hidden is Alex Marquez, who sits in eighth place in the middle of the third row. From pole position, Bagnaia made a perfect start to maintain the initiative and hold off the sharp Pedro Acosta. Patient Marc Márquez already took title position from the first lap Alex Marquez maintained his 8th place start, but fell to 7th as Quartararo dropped dramatically within one lap.

By the second lap, Bagnaia had a one-second lead over Acosta, who was blocking Marc Marquez. To avoid overheating the front tires, I kept a distance and entered the stage of conserving my tires. The Turin-born rider then gained a two-second cushion on lap eight with Mir Honda’s Ghost, which had been removed from its Repsol livery, and on lap nine he chased down Marc Marquez’s Ducati, which ran wide without losing position.

Then, on lap 11, Marc Marquez overtook Pedro Acosta at Turn 3, with Bagnaia running 3.8 inches ahead. At the halfway point of the race, the problem of two tough braking riders like Acosta and Mir fighting for third place was quickly resolved. With 11 races remaining, Mir’s surprise came to Acosta, who had to hit the off-road brakes with six races remaining. last.

Suspicious smoke started coming out of Bagnaia’s exhaust pipe with 10 minutes remaining, but the problem was not reflected in his time and he maintained a margin over teammate Marquez, who had already been given a ‘track limit’ warning. The Mir started lapping about 3 tenths per lap faster than the Ducati, and that momentum continued for three laps.

Smoke started coming out of Bagnaia’s exhaust with 10 seconds remaining, but there was no problem with his time. The Mir started the laps at a pace of 3 tenths per lap faster than the Ducati and was gradually getting closer. After five laps, the performance of Bagnaia’s Ducati began to decline, just as this “white smoke” became increasingly noticeable, prompting Aldridge, the championship’s technical director, to enter the Ducati’s box and ask before allowing him to continue on track.

However, Bagnaia was able to reach the finish line with a certain lead over Marc Márquez, who had little interest in winning at Motegi. Five years later, he wanted to take back his first title for “Rosso” Ducati in the “Home 93”, putting an end to his nightmare of making MotoGP history all over again. The 6th person has arrived Alex Marquez was caressing his younger brother very affectionately. If anyone knows what ’93 went through, it was exactly ’73 and all the same screams of anger and emotion.
