Marc Márquez continued his perfect start to the 2025 MotoGP season with a stunning victory at the Argentina Grand Prix, making it four wins from four races. The six-time world champion once again showcased his resilience and racecraft at Termas de Río Hondo, overcoming a strong challenge from his younger brother, Álex Márquez, to take the checkered flag.

The race started under warm conditions, with Marc Márquez seizing the early lead from pole position. However, his younger brother Álex, riding for Gresini Ducati, was determined to challenge him. By lap four, Marc made a rare mistake, running deep into the first corner and allowing Álex to take control. From that moment, Álex held the lead for much of the race, demonstrating incredible composure and pace.

Despite trailing for several laps, Marc never let his brother out of sight. The two engaged in a strategic battle, with Marc carefully managing his tires and waiting for the perfect moment to strike. He made his first serious attempt on lap 18 but overshot Turn 5, giving Álex another opportunity to stay ahead. However, on lap 22, Marc executed a textbook pass down the main straight, reclaiming the lead and immediately pulling away. Within two laps, he had built a gap of over a second, securing the victory with a dominant finish.

This win marks Marc Márquez’s 90th career victory, a milestone that puts him level with the legendary Ángel Nieto. It also extends his lead in the championship standings, putting him 16 points ahead of the competition. His performance so far in 2025 has been nothing short of phenomenal, and he now looks like the clear favorite for the title.

Third position on the podium went to Franco Morbidelli who achieved his first podium finish in two years since the Spanish Grand Prix from 2021. Early into the race the VR46 Ducati rider demonstrated risk-taking instincts by using softer rear tires that enabled him to fight against the race leaders from the beginning. Despite heavy pressure from world champion Francesco Bagnaia Morbidelli exhibited stellar tire management which secured him the third position on the podium.

Bagnaia experienced challenges to keep racing at a necessary high speed for reaching the podium positions after securing three third-place finishes in the previous events. Although the factory Ducati rider aimed for another successful placement he accepted fourth position as his final result. The inconsistent race results from 2025 lead people to doubt whether Morbidelli can keep his world title given Márquez’s perfect championship form.=

At the beginning of the race Marco Bezzecchi lost control and caused a crash which eliminated him together with Yamaha’s Fabio Quartararo at Turn 1. Continuing after his incident required Quartararo to remount his bike yet he concluded his race last in the field. From his position on the starting front row Johann Zarco experienced another tough launch which cost him numerous starting positions during the initial laps.

The KTM team with Brad Binder produced a strong race showing by earning seventh position alongside the impressive eighth-place finish of Japanese rookie Ai Ogura who recovered from 15th starting position. Throughout the race Pedro Acosta engaged in an intense competition with Joan Mir until Acosta secured ninth position through an ultimate passing maneuver.

The recent four consecutive runner-up finishes by Álex Márquez demonstrate his prowess in racing but he seeks his first race victory. The Márquez brothers currently dominate the championship while Bagnaia and Morbidelli attempt to bridge the distance between them.

The upcoming MotoGP event will draw strong attention toward Marc Márquez to observe his ability to defend his perfect track record. The other racers have a daunting challenge ahead following Márquez’s Argentina race outcome.
