MotoGP champion Marc Marquez continues to dominate headlines, not only for his performances on the track but also for his personal life. After a strong first half of the season with the Ducati Gresini team, where he scored four podiums in nine races, Marquez has secured a place on the factory team for the 2025-2026 seasons. Accompanied by his girlfriend Gemma Pinto, Marquez seems to be having a golden moment. However, not everyone shares this admiration.
Alex Teixidor, Catalan entrepreneur and ex-boyfriend of Gemma Pinto, launched a scathing attack against Marquez on social networks. Close friend ofAleix Espargaró et Jorge Martin, Teixidor did not mince his words in the comments of a Twitter post from George Martin, team runner Pramac. " To me, he's a fake, manipulative and mean person... and I'm not the only one who thinks so ", did he declare.
The rise of Marquez in the factory team Ducati caused a stir among drivers and teams, particularly among Pramac et George Martin. Many think that Martin deserved this opportunity alongside Pecco Bagnaia, but Borgo Panigale opted for Marc Marquez. Teixidor has stepped up his criticism, not only on a professional but also a personal level. “ As for my ex-partner, I have no problem with her, in fact we get along well. And as for the quality of Marc… in my opinion, he is no longer the best driver in the world today, he's a crybaby and a manipulator, in every sense of the word! ».
