Marc Marquez has just passed the previous winning record title which was held by Australian rider Mick Doohan’s of 12 victories in 17 races in the year 1997. Marquez despite missing a pole at the start of the Valencia MotoGP claimed a record 13th win of the season at the Valencia Grand Prix today (Sunday) ahead of Valentino Rossi and teammate Dani Pedrosa. This victory for the 21-year-old in the 18th and final race of the season also ensures a back-to-back constructors titles for Honda since team mate Pedrosa has continued in his success.
Crossing the line in second place Rossi (Movistar Yamaha MotoGP) notched up the 13th rostrum result of a remarkable season for him too and the Italian also clinches second in this year’s championship. Pedrosa (Repsol Honda Team) was third in the Valencia contest, registering his tenth podium result of 2014.
Andrea Dovizioso (Ducati Team) beat Cal Crutchlow (Ducati Team) to the line for fourth place by just 0.068s in their final race together as teammates.
