It was announced and yet the party was even more surprising than expected. The good town of Cervera pulled out all the stops to celebrate the titles of its prodigal sons, the brothers Marc and Álex Márquez. Incidentally, it was the first time since 2014 that they had the opportunity to enjoy a world title together. Despite cool temperatures, 10 people flocked to the town while it took an hour for the procession of champions to cover only 000 meters... And then Cervera also made motorcycle history...
Indeed, with 10 world titles, 93 victories and 171 podiums, Cervera has become the world capital of motorcycle speed. The locality is the seventh power in number of titles and the eighth in number of victories… A harvest harvested by its two citizens who are Marc and Alex Marquez. Cervera already has more world crowns than Japan, Switzerland, France or South Africa... In the ranking of titles, the house of Márquez dominates the stronghold of Tavullia whose king Valentino Rossi is at the head of nine world titles.
In 2014, they became the first brothers to win two of three MotoGP World Championship titles, with Marc and Álex taking the premier class in Moto3. A renewed performance since the eldest Márquez came to fruition in Buriram, the cadet then realizing his dream in Sepang.
Winning races in the same Grand Prix is a particularity that Márquez have lived six times, including four this season at Le Mans, Catalunya, Sachsenring and Brno. Regarding the podiums of the same Grand Prix, they already have 33, including 10 this season. For the record, our Sarron brothers did this seven times between 1986 and 1988 and the Rossi–Marini brothers experienced this at the Sachsenring 2018.
Finally, they have completed 17 Grands Prix as leader of their championship and, next year, they will become the first brothers who will try to revalidate their title.
