Marc Márquez: MotoGP - Thai Grand Prix

Honda’s Marc Márquez sealed his fourth consecutive MotoGP title with four races to spare after winning the Thai Grand Prix this Sunday. The Spaniard had to score two points more than Italian Ducati rival Andrea Dovizioso, who finished in a distant fourth place at Buriram’s Chang International Circuit.

The title was the sixth MotoGP title of Márquez’s grand prix career - the 26 year old has now become the youngest ever rider to achieve this feat. It was his eighth career title overall – he was 125cc (now Moto3) world champion in 2010 and Moto2 winner in 2012.

Márquez's motorcycle is powered by RK Chain, a brand which we supply here at Chains & Sprockets - click here to view our extensive range of RK Motorcycle Chains.
