1. INSANE RACE, ALEX BROKEN CLAVICLE, FERMÍN FROM 15TH TO 2ND

   Posted on 6:00pm Sunday 17th May 2026

   FERMÍN ALDEGUER #54 “It’s never easy to race in situations like this. Obviously, we are professional riders and we know how to separate emotions, but it still helped me to know from the team that at that moment the news coming in about Alex (and the other riders) was positive. We did a good race, in many ways unexpected, but we took twenty very important points. We are not yet fully fit physically, but morale is high after this podium. Now we are waiting for Alex to come back to us at 100%.” UPDATE ON ALEX MÁRQUEZ’S CONDITION The rider has suffered a fracture to his right collarbone, which will be operated on this evening. A marginal fracture to the C7 vertebra will instead be evaluated in the coming days.

2. MÁRQUEZ WINS THE CLOSEST SPRINT OF ALL TIME

   Posted on 5:00pm Saturday 16th May 2026

   ALEX MÁRQUEZ #73 “Nice victory, but if I think about tomorrow we are still missing something to be competitive in the long race. It was a good battle; on the last lap I could feel a bike close behind and I had to push hard because for 4 or 5 laps I had been struggling with the front. The 11 points recovered on the top of the championship standings are definitely positive, and tomorrow we need to take another step forward to stay on the right path and try to get back into the fight for the very top positions in the world championship.” FERMÍN ALDEGUER #54 “I felt strong in Q1, but today again a yellow flag and then in my last time attack I crashed in Turn 5. I had no major consequences, but I definitely lost confidence in that area for the sprint race. Starting from the 5th row also makes it very difficult. The pace wasn’t bad, but tomorrow we need a better start and to stay calm.”

3. FERMIN REMUNTADA, ALEX OUT ON LAP 2

   Posted on 4:00pm Sunday 10th May 2026

   FERMIN ALDEGUER #54 “Considering how we started the weekend, finishing with this result is definitely very positive. In the race, maybe I could have done a little more, but starting so far back forced us into a different strategy because of the tyre choice. The soft front tyre allowed us to make up a lot of positions, but in the final third of the race we no longer had enough grip to try and attack Raul Fernandez.” ALEX MARQUEZ #73 “I probably took Turn 3 a bit too slowly because I was worried the front tyre was still not fully up to temperature, and then I applied slightly too much throttle in Turn 4 and lost the front. A stupid mistake on my part, but fortunately I’m fine. It’s great to have Barcelona coming up very soon so we can make up for this race.”

4. FRENCH SPRINT: FERMIN RECOVERS BUT IT’S NOT ENOUGH, ALEX SCORES POINTS

   Posted on 5:00pm Saturday 9th May 2026

   ALEX MARQUEZ #73 “Saturday was made more difficult by an important mistake I made in qualifying. My fast lap wasn’t bad, but on a circuit like Le Mans every hundredth counts, and with just a few tenths’ delay I ended up on the fourth row. The race was difficult, and when riding in the slipstream it’s easy to make line mistakes, especially there. We did the maximum, picked up a couple of points, and if tomorrow we can make a small step forward in the warm-up, we can aim for a good result — weather permitting.” FERMIN ALDEGUER #54 “This morning with the used tyre things didn’t go badly at all; I was close to Alex’s lap times. But with the new tyre I’m struggling this year. In the race, partly thanks to our own work and partly because of a few crashes ahead, we managed a good comeback. The important thing is that we found the feeling and pace again, and tomorrow we hope for dry conditions, which would be very important to continue the work we’ve been doing this weekend.”         SPRINT RACE ALEX MARQUEZ 8º  FERMIN ALDEGUER 11º STANDINGS ALEX MARQUEZ 6º (55 points) FERMIN ALDEGUER 15º (20 points)     #FRENCHGP ðŸ‡«ðŸ‡·

5. OPS, WE’RE BACK!

   Posted on 5:00pm Sunday 26th Apr 2026

   ALEX MARQUEZ #73 “If there was a track where I could rediscover my feeling, it was Jerez. Magic happens here, and that’s exactly how it went. I felt good right from Friday, but I didn’t expect to be this fast. We did an amazing job together with the team—we worked hard, and getting two consecutive wins is absolutely incredible. I attacked right from the start, both Marco and Marc, and then I found a strong rhythm. These 25 points give us a lot of confidence and at least put us back among the top 7 in the overall standings. Now we’ll try to build race by race.” FERMIN ALDEGUER #54 “Many positive things from this race. Starting from 12th, I knew it wouldn’t be easy, and after a disastrous start the situation got even worse. But I still managed to put together a good race—the top 10 is definitely important, though we still need to find a solid base with this new bike. We’re definitely lacking something physically; after Austin I was completely drained, but we were coming off a double-header. I feel better now, but we’ll see tomorrow morning how I feel for the tests.”
