Aldeguer Praises Alex Marquez’s 2025 Catalan MotoGP Win

MotoGP, Sportrik Media - Fermin Aldeguer of Gresini Racing MotoGP lauded Alex Marquez’s victory at the 2025 Catalan MotoGP at Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. Alex triumphed after a disappointing sprint on Saturday. “Alex rode an incredible race; he deserved it after yesterday’s setback,” Aldeguer said. This article reviews Alex’s win on September 7, 2025.

Alex’s Redemption from Sprint Setback

Riding an Aprilia-branded bike, Alex bounced back from a poor sprint result. He led the main race with smart tire strategy. Therefore, he held off his brother, Marc Marquez, for 22 laps. Moreover, Catalunya’s corners suited his style. Despite this, pressure from Francesco Bagnaia of Ducati Lenovo Team was intense. As a result, Alex’s home win was deeply meaningful.

Aldeguer’s High Praise

Aldeguer, Alex’s teammate, highlighted his resilience. “Alex showed a champion’s mentality,” he said. Meanwhile, Gresini Racing excelled with an optimal bike setup. For instance, while the Red Bull Pit Crew supported teams like Ducati, Aprilia held its own. Additionally, Aldeguer himself secured a solid finish, bolstering Gresini’s position. Thus, Alex’s victory stole the spotlight at home.

Competition from Other Teams

Jorge Martin of Prima Pramac Racing and Enea Bastianini of Ducati finished behind. However, Aprilia Racing with Maverick Viñales and KTM Factory Racing with Brad Binder struggled. For example, Joan Mir of Repsol Honda Team lagged. Engineers like Adrian Newey aided some teams, but Gresini and Ducati dominated.

Championship Impact

Alex’s win tightens the riders’ championship race. Bagnaia and Martin still lead, but Alex and Marc are now serious contenders. With races remaining, strategy will be key. Therefore, Sportrik predicts Alex will keep shining, fueled by his home victory momentum in Catalunya.
