Marc Marquez will be looking to win a record-extending
Grand Prix of the Americas title when he competes in Austin.
Most recent race
The Ducati rider was in his element at the Argentine MotoGP on 16 March, the most recent event on the 2025 MotoGP calendar.
Marquez won both the race and the sprint event which saw him collect an impressive 37 points at the Autódromo Termas de Río Hondo.
Standings
The 32-year-old is placed at the top of the 2025 MotoGP riders' standings, having won the first two races in the current season.
Marquez is 76 points ahead of second-placed Alex Marquez of Ducati and 31 points clear of third-placed Francesco Bagnaia of Ducati.
Why Marquez could win the 2025 Grand Prix of the Americas
The eight-time MotoGP world champion is the king of the Grand Prix of the Americas, having won the race a record seven times.
Marquez, who is also the most in-form rider in the MotoGP at the moment, is a clear-favourite to win the event he won in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2021.
What did he say?
“The race pace was incredible and a had a few moments in the final laps. Alex pushed me to the limit: we were both able to lap in the low 1’38s, and we really made the different," Marquez said after winning the 2025 Argentine MotoGP.
"It wasn’t easy to overtake him, as the only spot was at turn five. The first time I tried, I ended up wide, but then I was able to make it stick at the second attempt as I was a lot closer to him. I’m happy for my team as they did an incredible job.
"We weren’t in such a perfect condition as in Buriram, my riding was not as smooth, but the lap-times came and that’s what matters. I can’t wait for the next race weekend at Austin, especially given the moment we’re living right now.”
