Marc Marquez said his victory at the 2025 Austrian Grand Prix felt special because he broke the "curse" at the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg on Sunday.
In his previous seven races, he had always failed to finish in the lead in the main race in Spielberg. However, this time, the Ducati Lenovo Team rider put in an impressive performance, overtaking Marco Bezzecchi on lap 20 and maintaining the lead against pressure from Fermin Aldeguer to the finish line.
"I really want to win here. When I was asked about my target last Thursday, I said the goal with the red bike (Ducati) is to win, because it's the bike that often beats me on this track," Marquez said on the team's official website.
