Bezzecchi prepares for Jerez Bezzecchi’s words

Marco Bezzecchi is in the best moment of his career in the MotoGP World Championship. The rider from Romagna achieved his fifth consecutive GP victory in Austin (only Marc Marquez and Valentino Rossi had managed this) and now wants to conquer his sixth in Jerez de la Frontera, strong with an Aprilia never so fast.

The World Championship leader, four points ahead of Jorge Martin, has been named as the favorite for the Spanish GP by Marquez: a rider who doesn’t mind putting pressure on others, but always with clarity and without ever lacking seriousness. Bez must therefore live with this new dimension of his. And apparently, he’s doing well with it.

Bezzecchi’s words

I’m pleased to hear Marquez say I’m the favorite. Pressure is also a privilege; it’s not easy to manage, but we have to succeed. I enjoyed the popularity; I felt a lot of affection from people and many who support me. It was a beautiful moment, arriving alongside other Italian athletes like Jannik Sinner and Kimi Antonelli. We won on the same days,” this was his comment to the Jerez media.

I hope to continue being competitive. It’s like a new beginning, because there’s been quite a long break and everyone has had time to work. We’ll try to get back on track well,” he added to Sky Sport MotoGP. “In 2025 we didn’t have a great weekend here, but in terms of performance, we weren’t doing too badly. It’s clear that many things have changed from then until now: I hope the bike goes well, but surely the guys have worked hard and we could do well. Here we struggled a lot with the bike’s movements, and that’s the thing we’ve improved the most from the beginning of 2025 until today”.
