Marc Marquez’s title win, debut victories for Aldeguer and Fernandez, and more… enjoy looking back at some of the best bits from the second half of 2025
In the summer, we gave you some of the most memorable moments of the season so far. Now, as we head into the winter break, it’s time to look back at some of the best bits from the second half of our record-breaking campaign.
The crowning moment of 2025. Marc Marquez (Ducati Lenovo Team) completed one of sport’s greatest ever comebacks at the Japanese GP to clinch his first MotoGP title since 2019. THE story of 2025.

While Marquez’s title win was by far the biggest story of 2025, there were plenty of subplots that we enjoyed too. In Indonesia, Fermin Aldeguer (BK8 Gresini Racing MotoGP) cruised to victory to become the first rookie to win a MotoGP Grand Prix since Jorge Martin (Aprilia Racing) in 2021, while Phillip Island played host to Raul Fernandez and Trackhouse MotoGP’s debut victory.

On the same day of Aldeguer’s victory, we witnessed Marquez and Marco Bezzecchi’s (Aprilia Racing) Lap 1 crash. Ultimately, it ended the World Champion’s season prematurely and became a huge talking point after the #93 had - crucially -already clinched the title.

To say HRC’s recent years in MotoGP have been tricky is an understatement, but there is a rather bright ray of light appearing at the end of the tunnel. And that was highlighted with Joan Mir (Honda HRC Castrol) bookending the flyaway tour with podiums in Japan and Malaysia – his first with the Japanese manufacturer.

It was a rollercoaster 2025 for Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo Team), but a real high point was his flawless weekend at the Mobility Resort Motegi. But Sunday’s Grand Prix victory didn’t arrive without a handful of nerves for fans and the Ducati box when the double MotoGP World Champion’s Ducati threatened to cost Pecco his comfortable 25 points.

Alex Marquez (BK8 Gresini Racing MotoGP) vs Pedro Acosta (Red Bull KTM Factory Racing), with a little bit of Bezzecchi thrown in there too. Portimao’s Tissot Sprint was a proper edge-of-your-seat blockbuster between second, third and fourth in the championship.
