Weekend Motorsport Glory: Josep, Marc, and Razgatl?o?lu Rewrite the Record Books

This weekend turned into a milestone across three different Motorsport championships. From the rain-soaked trails of Italy to the speed temple of Motegi and the brutal duels at Aragón, three riders stamped their names into history: Josep Garcia secured his Enduro1 world crown, Marc Márquez clinched the MotoGP world title with Ducati, and Toprak Razgatl?o?lu tied his own WorldSBK win streak record.

Josep Garcia – Enduro1 World Champion at the EnduroGP of Italy

The Italian round of EnduroGP was everything you’d expect – mud, rain, and sheer grit. KTM’s Josep Garcia came in needing just a handful of points to wrap up the Enduro1 title, and he delivered in style.

On Saturday, Garcia was in a class of his own, topping 11 of 12 tests despite brutal conditions. A heavy crash left him battered, but still ahead. On Sunday, he rode smart – finishing fourth in class, which was all he needed to seal the Enduro1 Motorsport crown with a round to spare.

The weekend also gave fans plenty of drama in Motorsport. Andrea Verona (GASGAS) bounced back to win the EnduroGP overall on Sunday, and Triumph’s Morgan Lesiardo gave the British brand its first-ever Enduro1 victory. For Garcia, though, the mission was clear: title secured, focus now shifts to defending his overall EnduroGP lead at the season finale in Germany.

Marc Márquez – Ducati and the MotoGP World Title

When Marc Márquez joined Ducati, many wondered if the magic was still there. This weekend at Motegi, he gave his answer loud and clear. A second-place finish behind teammate Pecco Bagnaia was enough to crown Márquez the 2025 MotoGP World Champion – his seventh in the Motorsport premier class, equaling Valentino Rossi’s tally.

The numbers are staggering: 11 Grand Prix wins, 14 Sprint victories, and over 540 championship points this season. Ducati locked in yet another Riders’ crown, underlining their dominance.

Post-race, Márquez admitted how emotional the moment was. After years of injury struggles and doubts, this title felt different – more personal. Bagnaia, who won both the sprint and the feature race, summed it up best: “I don’t want to take the spotlight from Marc — he deserves it today.”

Toprak Razgatl?o?lu – Ties His Own WorldSBK Record

Over in Aragón, Toprak Razgatl?o?lu added another chapter to his Motorsport legend. The BMW rider claimed his 13th consecutive WorldSBK win in Saturday’s race, matching his own record from last season. It was also his first-ever victory at Aragón, showing just how much he’s evolved with the BMW M 1000 RR.

Toprak Wins WorldSBK Motorsport

Sunday belonged to Ducati’s Nicolo Bulega, who edged Toprak in both the Superpole and Race 2, but the Turk still walked away with two strong second places. More importantly, he maintains a 36-point championship lead heading into the final two rounds.

The Aragón win was symbolic – proof that BMW Motorsport can go toe-to-toe with Ducati even on their home ground. For Toprak, it was another reminder of why he’s one of the most exciting riders on the planet.

Final Thoughts

One weekend, three championships, and three very different kinds of greatness. Garcia showed resilience, Márquez reminded the world why he’s one of the greatest ever, and Toprak kept rewriting WorldSBK history.

For fans, it doesn’t get much better than this.
