Marc Marquez came into MotoGP’s summer break on a hot streak. He has strung together five consecutive doubles – winning both the sprint and Sunday races at Aragon, Mugello, Assen, the Sachsenring and Brno. That run has catapulted him into a lead of 120 points over second-placed Alex Marquez, his brother.
So far this season, factory Ducati rider Marc has won eight of the 12 grand prix races and 11 of the sprints – only missing out on the latter at Silverstone. That gives him 66.6% of Sunday race wins and 91.6% of Saturday sprint wins, meaning he has come out on top in 79.1% of the 24 contests held this year.
