Marquez triumphs at the Sachsenring: records and seventh season victory!

Sachsenring, Deutschland - Marc Márquez wrote another remarkable chapter in his career on July 13, 2025 by winning the Grand Prix of Germany at the Sachsenring. With this victory, the Spaniard celebrated its 200th start in the MotoGP and achieved his seventh season victory. Márquez, who is already a World Cup leader, expanded his lead in overall ranking to 80 points opposite his brother, Alex Márquez. The MotoGP victory at the Sachsenring was Márquez's ninth victory on this route and is a new record that only he could set up. With 89 victories, Valentino Rossi remains the only driver with more than Márquez, who now has 69 victories in his account, and thus overtaken the record of Giacomo Agostini (68).

In the exciting race, in which only ten out of 18 drivers started, Alex Márquez and Pecco Bagnaia (Ducati) also landed on the podium. The best KTM pilot, Brad Binder, also showed a strong performance and completed the race in seventh place. Despite some failures, including Fabio di Giannantonio and Johann Zarco, the spectators were enthusiastic. A total of 256,441 spectators watched the racing events, which is a new record for the event.

falls and injuries

The race was overshadowed by numerous falls because eight drivers left during the race. In particular, the lack of Franco Morbidelli and Maverick Vinales, who could not compete due to injuries, significantly impaired the field of participants. In addition, Enea Bastianini failed because of appendicitis, which reinforced the challenges for the teams.

Marc Márquez again proved that he is in top form on the Sachsenring. His triumph in the long success story of the MotoGP, a championship that was founded in 1949 and has developed rapidly since then. After all, 1,015 Grand Prix will be recorded in the history of the motorcycle World Cup in 2024. Márquez's new record underlines the dominance and the importance that he has achieved over the years in this World Cup.

A look at the future of the MotoGP

With the continuing successes of drivers such as Márquez and the steadily growing viewer interest, a clear trend can be seen: The motorcycle world championship remains a key event in international motorsport. The biggest challenge so far is the upcoming search for the 400th Grand Prix winner, which will further increase the tension in the 2024 season. It remains to be seen whether Márquez can continue to break records or whether one of the aspiring talents will stand up to him in the competition.

The passionate fans of the MotoGP and the entire motorsport community look forward to the upcoming races while they are pursuing the development of drivers and teams with great interest.
