Magic Marquez makes it perfect 5 from 5
Print Edition
SPANIARD Marc Marquez became the first rider since Italian great Giacomo Agostini in 1972 to win the first five races of the season as he eased to MotoGP victory at the French Grand Prix in Le Mans yesterday.
The 21-year-old Honda rider — who also emulated Australia Mick Doohan in winning the five straight races from pole — recovered from a poor start to take control with 16 laps remaining and came home ahead of Italian great Valentino Rossi (Yamaha) while Alvaro Bautista of Spain was third on a Honda Gresini.
The reigning world champion, the youngest ever rider to win five straight races in the premier class, took the record from late Englishman Mike Hailwood who was 22 years and 160 days old when he won five successive races in the 500cc class in 1962.
