When the lights go out at MotorLand Aragón this Sunday to begin the fourteenth race of 2019, Marc Márquez will have reached his 200th race start in the Motorcycle World Championship. Still only 26 years old, the Repsol Honda Team rider has become the man to beat on two wheels, reaching new milestones and breaking records season after season since his debut in in 2008.
Márquez is one of the most successful Spanish athletes in history, winning seven World Championships in eleven seasons. He has been on the podium 128 times in his career, a ratio of almost 2 out of every 3 races he has entered.
His 78 victories place him among the most successful riders off all time, including having the most wins in a single season (13 in 2014). Also in 2014, he became the rider with the highest number of pole positions in a season (13). The Repsol Honda Team rider has shone in qualifying, taking pole 88 times; this is the most for any rider since records were first kept in 1978.
A hero in Spain, he is the first Spanish rider to win 50 premier class races, and his achievements have been recognised with numerous awards in his homeland.
The current series leader, and coming into the race off the back of victory at Misano last Sunday, Márquez will celebrate Grand Prix number 200 in front of his home fans in Aragón.
