Sawt Falasteen - Marquez wins MotoGP sprint in Texas to remain undefeated

Just as in 2025's opening two weekends Marquez was followed across the line by his brother Alex, with Francesco Bagnaia in third.

Marc Marquez is in sensational form since moving to the factory Ducati team.

He rattled off wins in the sprint and race from pole in Thailand and Argentina.

And he will be red hot favourite for Sunday's main event to continue his monopoly on the 2025 season.

After earlier claiming pole, his eighth at the Circuit of the Americas, a record, Marquez got a decent getaway from lights out.

But Bagnaia exploded off the line from sixth on the grid to battle his new teammate from turn one.

Alex Marquez on a satellite Ducati joined in the fun in a frantic opening lap.

Marc Marquez kept his cool to edge clear of his brother and 2022-2023 world champion Bagnaia third.

Once in control Marquez senior controlled the 10-lap dash to move 19 points clear of his younger sibling.

On Sunday the championship leader seeks a record-extending eighth main race win at the Texas track.
