Alex Marquez Earns the Top Step

Alex Marquez has officially shed the nickname “Mr. P2.” With a flawless and fiercely fought victory at the Estrella Galicia 0,0 Grand Prix of Spain, Alex Marquez stepped into the spotlight as a bona fide MotoGP race winner. After several close calls and hard-fought podiums in recent seasons, the younger Marquez brother finally claimed his maiden MotoGP win—doing so in front of an ecstatic home crowd at Jerez. His breakthrough ride not only secured 25 valuable championship points but also vaulted him into the lead of the 2025 MotoGP World Championship standings.

Racing for BK8 Gresini Racing MotoGP, Alex Marquez showed maturity, precision, and aggression as he stalked early leader Fabio Quartararo before making a calculated move into Turn 1 on Lap 11. From there, he never looked back. Building a gap and defending it expertly, Alex controlled the race as Quartararo and Francesco Bagnaia scrapped for the remaining podium positions. With Marc Marquez crashing out early and championship contenders falling by the wayside, it was Alex Marquez who kept his cool and delivered a career-defining performance.

For years, Alex has lived in the shadow of his legendary older brother. He has been a Moto2 World Champion, but MotoGP glory has remained elusive. That changed on April 27, 2025, at Jerez. The race wasn’t handed to him—he earned it. With clean overtakes, ironclad defense, and inch-perfect lap execution, Alex Marquez is now, definitively, a MotoGP winner.

Though the spotlight often shines brighter on his brother, Marc Marquez himself had nothing but praise. “I’m obviously super happy and proud of Alex for the win, as I knew it was one of his career goals,” Marc stated post-race. And that pride is well earned. After battling injuries, inconsistent machinery, and team changes, Alex Marquez’s resilience has finally been rewarded with the ultimate prize.

It’s not just a win—it’s a warning. The 2025 MotoGP season now has a new leader, a new story arc, and a new contender in Alex Marquez. With the championship wide open, and confidence now surging through his veins, don’t be surprised if Jerez is just the beginning of a dominant run.
