In the summer, we gave you some of the most memorable moments<\/a> of the season so far. Now, as we head into the winter break, it\u2019s time to look back at some of the best bits from the second half of our record-breaking campaign.<\/p>\n

COMEBACK = COMPLETE<\/p>\n

The crowning moment of 2025. Marc Marquez (Ducati Lenovo Team) completed one of sport\u2019s greatest ever comebacks at the Japanese GP to clinch his first MotoGP title since 2019. THE story of 2025.<\/p>\n

FERNANDEZ & ALDEGUER NOTCH UP DEBUT MOTOGP WINS<\/p>\n

While Marquez\u2019s title win was by far the biggest story of 2025, there were plenty of subplots that we enjoyed too. In Indonesia, Fermin Aldeguer (BK8 Gresini Racing MotoGP) cruised to victory to become the first rookie to win a MotoGP Grand Prix since Jorge Martin (Aprilia Racing) in 2021, while Phillip Island played host to Raul Fernandez and Trackhouse MotoGP\u2019s debut victory.<\/p>\n

BEZZECCHI AND MARQUEZ\u2019S INDONESIA CLASH<\/p>\n

On the same day of Aldeguer\u2019s victory, we witnessed Marquez and Marco Bezzecchi\u2019s (Aprilia Racing) Lap 1 crash. Ultimately, it ended the World Champion\u2019s season prematurely and became a huge talking point after the #93 had – crucially -already clinched the title.<\/p>\n

MIR PUTS HRC BACK ON THE PODIUM<\/p>\n

To say HRC\u2019s recent years in MotoGP have been tricky is an understatement, but there is a rather bright ray of light appearing at the end of the tunnel. And that was highlighted with Joan Mir (Honda HRC Castrol) bookending the flyaway tour with podiums in Japan and Malaysia \u2013 his first with the Japanese manufacturer.<\/p>\n

BAGNAIA SMOKES THE FIELD IN JAPAN<\/p>\n

It was a rollercoaster 2025 for Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo Team), but a real high point was his flawless weekend at the Mobility Resort Motegi. But Sunday\u2019s Grand Prix victory didn\u2019t arrive without a handful of nerves for fans and the Ducati box when the double MotoGP World Champion\u2019s Ducati threatened to cost Pecco his comfortable 25 points.<\/p>\n

SPRINT OF THE YEAR?<\/p>\n

Alex Marquez (BK8 Gresini Racing MotoGP) vs Pedro Acosta (Red Bull KTM Factory Racing), with a little bit of Bezzecchi thrown in there too. Portimao\u2019s Tissot Sprint was a proper edge-of-your-seat blockbuster between second, third and fourth in the championship.<\/p>\n

Any more you can think of? Probably! All there is left to say is cheers to 2025 being another memorable season, and here\u2019s to plenty more in 2026.<\/p>\n
