It’s been over 1,000 days since Marc Márquez last tasted victory in MotoGP. Now, as the 2024 Aragon Grand Prix approaches, many are wondering if it will be the event where the six-time world champion finally ends his streak.

Márquez’s journey over the past few years has been anything but smooth. He suffered a serious arm injury, and his time with Honda saw a decline in results. However, his recent switch to the Gresini Ducati team has reignited hope not only in Márquez but also among his fans. Although he hasn’t secured a win yet, Márquez has already been on the podium nine times this season, coming close to victory on several occasions. He has been performing well, even though he has had a few crashes; he can still deliver. In fact, he has shown good pace during sprints and races, he even managed to  keep up with Bagnaia.

Aragon is a circuit where Márquez has enjoyed success, with six career wins. Now, the circuit has returned to the calendar after being absent since 2022. Given his strong history at this track, one question arises: Can Márquez finally break his winless streak here?

Ducati has dominated at Aragon in recent years, with Bagnaia defeating Márquez in a memorable duel in 2021. Despite this, many believe that Márquez’s experience and the performance of his Ducati could give him an opportunity to fight with Bagnaia. After all, Aragon is one of Márquez’s best tracks, and given that it’s his home race, he will be more motivated to secure a win there. While it’s been a long wait for Márquez, the Aragon Grand Prix could be a turning point for him. The weekend will depend on how he and his rivals, like Bagnaia, perform from the first minute of practice. If Márquez can seize this opportunity, his first win since the 2021 Emilia Romagna GP might finally be within reach.
