This year, Marc Márquez is teammates with his brother Álex for the second time in his career. In 2020, they were both at Repsol Honda, but Marc’s injury suffered in the first round meant that their teamwork didn’t last long.
Now, the brothers are teaming up again, but at Gresini – where they ride the Ducati Desmosedici GP23. The teammate is usually the first rival to beat, but how does Marc feel about being alongside Álex?
In a conversation published on Audi Spain’s YouTube channel, the eight-time world champion talked about being teammates with his brother, saying:
– It’s an honor to be teammates with my brother, Álex. The first rival is your teammate, who has the same weapons as you. But in this case, being my brother, for example in the first race in Qatar, we were together for part of the race, in the end I finished sixth.
