MotoGP, Sportrik Media - Alex Marquez of BK8 Gresini Racing MotoGP, younger brother of 2025 MotoGP World Champion Marc Marquez, shared emotional insights on his sibling's success. Disappointed at failing to delay the title party in Motegi, Alex is proud of Marc's comeback from injury and hopes Indonesia hosts more MotoGP rounds at Mandalika.
Disappointment in Motegi: Failed to Delay Brother's Celebration
Alex expressed frustration over his subpar performance at the Motegi Japan Grand Prix, finishing sixth. “I could have done better to postpone Marc's championship,” he said. Despite this, his result kept him competitive in the standings, but couldn't stop Marc's second-place finish and seventh title with Ducati Corse. The setback serves as a key lesson for Alex in the 2025 season.

Pride in Marc Marquez's Remarkable Comeback
Beyond personal disappointment, Alex is thrilled to see Marc reclaim his peak form after the grueling 2020 arm injury requiring four surgeries. “The public sees only 10% of his resurgence; I've witnessed it all,” Alex noted. He credits learning much from Marc throughout MotoGP 2025, especially resilience. Marc's shift from Honda to Ducati inspires Alex, who earned the "Mr. P2" nickname with multiple runner-up finishes this year.
Alex's Win Over Marc at 2025 Catalunya MotoGP
Though often second, Alex triumphed over Marc at the 2025 Catalunya MotoGP, securing his first victory of the season. This delayed Marc's potential early title lock in Misano. “I always push to win, not intentionally yield to my brother,” Alex asserted. The Catalunya win highlights healthy sibling rivalry on track, balanced by off-track support.
High Hopes for 2025 Indonesian MotoGP
Alex admires Indonesia's massive MotoGP fanbase, one of the sport's largest markets. “I hope races here increase to two or three rounds,” he said. He returns to Mandalika Circuit this weekend for the Indonesian MotoGP 2025 (October 3–5), even post-title fight. Backed by thousands of fans, Alex sees Mandalika as an iconic venue, boosting local talents like Mario Suryo Aji.
Future Prospects for the Marquez Brothers
The Marquez brothers' 2025 MotoGP rivalry blends pride and competition into a compelling narrative. Sportrik analysis predicts Alex's growth could challenge Marc next season. With Indonesian MotoGP as the stage, this weekend promises excitement, where Alex aims to add points and celebrate his brother's title with Indonesian fans.
