MotoGP, Indonesia, VIDEO: When Fabio Quartararo and Alex Rins tackle a Marquez fan in Taiwan

Before heading to Indonesia for the next round of the MotoGP championship, Fabio Quartararo and Alex Rins made a notable stopover in Taiwan. The two Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP team riders participated in an event organized by the local division of the brand with the three tuning forks, where hundreds of fans gathered to see them up close, get an autograph, and take a souvenir photo.

A classic moment… right down to the detail that turns the scene upside down… The event continued in a good-natured atmosphere: questions about their daily lives, selfies, signings, shared laughter. Everything seemed perfectly routine until a passionate supporter—but above all, an absolute fan of Marc Marquez — goes on stage.

Noticing this spectator's right arm, Fabio Quartararo bursts out laughing: the man has a huge tattoo of Marc MarquezSmiling, the Frenchman immediately reacted by teasingly booing and giving the crowd a thumbs-up, triggering a burst of cheers and laughter from the audience.

Alex Rins spots another detail… even funnier

The scene doesn't end there. While Quarterly is about to sign the fan's phone, alex rins notices another involuntary wink: the screen displays a photo Marc Marquez on his Ducati as wallpaperThis time the audience bursts into laughter and Quarterly adds another layer by pretending to throw the phone into the crowd, before returning the device to its owner, laughing.

The moment, completely improvised, ended in a light atmosphere. Despite the teasing, Quarterly et Kidneys signed the autograph and took the photo, giving this fan a memorable anecdote — and a video that went viral among enthusiasts.

This episode also illustrates, with humor, the still strong imprint of Marc Marquez, even when he is not present. His image tattooed on an arm and displayed on a phone continues to provoke reactions, including among his direct rivals. Proof that, despite technical changes and rivalries, the Spanish legend remains a central figure in the MotoGP.
