Unstoppable Marc Marquez roars to Aragon Grand Prix win
Marc Marquez proved once again that he was the master of the circuit at MotorLand as the Ducati rider won the Aragon Grand Prix from pole to extend his lead in the MotoGP championship. Marquez's brother Alex finished second for Gresini Racing while Marc's teammate Francesco Bagnaia came third as Ducati bikes swept the podium on Sunday. Marc had completed the perfect weekend last year to win his first race in 1043 days at the same circuit and he repeated his feat, the polesitter and sprint winner claiming a record-extending seventh MotoGP victory at the track. What finishing 1st and 2nd feels like 🕺#AragonGP 🏁 — MotoGP™🏁 (@MotoGP) June 8, 2025 Such was Marquez's dominance this weekend that he became the first rider in 10 years to lead every session -- including warm-ups, practice and qualifying -- since he did it himself at the German Grand Prix in 2015. "It was an amazing weekend. Leading all the practices, full focus, just full concentration," said Marquez, who now leads his brother by 32 points in the championship. "As I expected, the others got closer and closer every session. In the race, the pace of Alex and Pecco (Bagnaia) was super fast, but it was consistent. (I was) just controlling the race distance. "And the celebration together with my brother was amazing. The best way to come back with full Ducatis in the top." The two Marquez brothers also danced arm-in-arm in front of the home fans sitting in a special stand dedicated to Spain's fastest brothers on two wheels. Heading into the race weekend, the Marquez brothers had also been involved in social media banter over who their mother would support and Marc had the last laugh when he handed her a red Ducati shirt at the winners' circle in the paddock. Marc had broken the lap record to take his 99th career pole before claiming a seventh sprint victory of the season on Saturday despite a poor start, but this time he shot off the line with a perfect launch to lead into turn one. Alex stayed in second place but behind them it was KTM's Pedro Acosta who sparred with Bagnaia for third as they constantly swapped positions, using each other's slipstream to overtake, but the more-experienced Bagnaia held on. Up front, Marc continued to set fastest laps as he streaked away with Alex unable to match his pace, as his brother slowly but surely extended his advantage at one of his favourite circuits which has a corner named after him. 32 points clear of @alexmarquez73 📈 #AragonGP 🏁 — MotoGP™🏁 (@MotoGP) June 8, 2025 The younger Marquez sibling was soon looking over his shoulder to see Bagnaia eating up the distance between them while KTM's Brad Binder crashed in fifth place, leaving the crew chief of the struggling team fuming in the pit lane. But Alex quickly found his rhythm to stay in second while Bagnaia fended off Acosta to prevent an all-Spanish podium. Bagnaia, who is third in the championship, now sits 93 points behind Marc. Australian rider Jack Miller finished 14th on his Pramac Yamaha, some 26.761 seconds behind.

How to Watch the Aragon MotoGP on a Free Channel
Motorsport fans take weekends seriously. They're either about Formula 1 or MotoGP races. This time, we're preparing to watch the Aragon MotoGP live on a free channel. As silly as it sounds, you can enjoy this race free of charge. Today's guide will explain how to watch the Aragon MotoGP online for free, which will also apply to other races across the season. If you're interested, also check our guide on watching all F1 races for free. Date and time Sunday, June 8 at 2:00 PM CET / 8:00 AM ET / 5:00 AM PT Free channels ServusTV (Austria), SRF (Switzerland) Watch the race live from anywhere with NordVPN MotoGP Aragon Live Stream: Use This Free Channel You don't have to spend a fortune on paid streaming services. With ServusTV, a TV channel from Austria, you can watch the Aragon GP live for free. ServusTV isn't a subscription-based channel, so it's naturally cost-free. This, however, also means you don't need to make an account. All you have to do is visit the website, tune in on the day of the race, and enjoy. However, there are a couple of inconveniences, as it's not in English. Watch Aragon MotoGP With NordVPN ServusTV offers Austrian commentary, and it's available exclusively in Austria. On the other hand, the live stream is in Full HD, allowing you to enjoy the best quality live stream on both small and large screens. How to Access ServusTV Outside Austria? You'll need an Austrian IP address for this. To get it, you'll also need a VPN. People online brag about using NordVPN. It makes sense because it's the most popular VPN right now. It offers an array of Austrian servers with unrestricted bandwidth and some of the best speeds. NordVPN works like any other VPN. It connects you to an intermediary server in another country. In doing so, it assigns you an IP address of that server. Logically, connecting to a server in Austria provides you with the associated IP. With an Austrian IP address, you can go to ServusTV and watch the race without registering or paying anything. Additionally, NordVPN supports all devices, so it's very convenient for watching the Aragon MotoGP online for free. You can do it on your phone, tablet, laptop, computer, or TV. NordVPN isn't free, but it has a 30-day refund policy. This means you can enjoy the free live stream of the Aragon MotoGP race and immediately get a refund. If not, you can keep using it and watch other races in the season or unblock foreign TV channels for more content. SRF: Swiss Channel for Streaming Aragon MotoGP Another channel you can use for this race is SRF. While ServusTV works in Austria, SRF is a Swiss channel that covers the entire Grand Prix. It's an excellent channel for watching all MotoGP races throughout the season. Unfortunately, it's not in English, but you can still enjoy a high-quality live stream without needing to register. If you're in Switzerland, SRF will function without any special adjustments. If not, you'll need NordVPN to get a Swiss IP address abroad. After that, it's smooth sailing. Visit SRF, tune in, and watch the race. SRF and ServusTV have no hidden fees, and the VPN can be refunded either way. If neither of them sounds appealing, paid platforms may be the solution. Please be aware that you'll spend a significant amount and will not be eligible for a refund. Oh, and most of these region-locked, too, so if you venture abroad, you may need to use a VPN to unblock them either way. When Does the Race Start? The race is set to start on Sunday, the 8th of June, but the time you'll need to watch out for depends on your location. The official track time is 14:00 CET. In the USA, you can watch it at 08:00 EST or 05:00 PST. Needless to say, you'll wake up when the roosters start to sing. But there's no better way to start a morning. A free live stream of the Aragon MotoGP as soon as you open your eyes. Try NordVPN Risk-Free Today

Marc Marquez fastest in Aragon Grand Prix qualifying for 99th career pole
June 7 (Reuters) - Ducati's Marc Marquez broke the lap record at the Aragon Grand Prix on Saturday to clinch the 99th pole position of his career and fifth of the season, pipping his brother Alex of Gresini Racing to top spot. Championship leader Marc set the early pace when he became the first rider to go under a minute and 46 seconds but the Spaniard was soon pushed down to third when Alex went fastest, followed by VR46 Racing's Franco Morbidelli. But Marc put his head down and produced an aggressive lap, with his red Ducati sliding around some of the curves as he clocked one minute and 45.704 seconds at the MotorLand circuit. "The first lap with the first tyre was clean. I just did one lap and then I stopped because I was already (one minute and) 45.9 without exaggerating, but then I exaggerated too much (on my next attempt)," Marc said. "(I was) trying to be too fast, even lost time. Of course, the riding style for the main race and the sprint is different, but the lap was not the smoothest lap of my life." Marc's fifth pole of the season put him in prime position to claim a record-extending seventh MotoGP victory at Aragon. His team mate Francesco Bagnaia also struggled with stability on his bike but managed to go fourth fastest while Red Bull KTM's factory team riders Pedro Acosta and Brad Binder will join him on the second row on Sunday.
