100 Grand Prix wins for Marc Marquez, and 100 MotoGP wins for Ducati\u2019s factory team. It\u2019s safe to say it wasn\u2019t a bad Sunday at the office for the Ducati Lenovo Team at Balaton Park, as the reigning World Champions celebrated a double dose of success in their centenary year.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Two icons of MotoGP reaching the magic tonne on the same day seemed fitting. Ducati Lenovo Team chose the #93 to join them in 2025 to partner 2022 and 2023 World Champion Francesco Bagnaia, creating a MotoGP dream team. And what a dream it was last season. The greatest comeback in MotoGP history was rolled out, as Marquez returned to title-winning ways, having clinched 11 Sunday victories before his crash in Indonesia. A simply unbeatable rider and machine combination.<\/p>\n
Those 11, coupled with Bagnaia\u2019s two, saw Ducati’s factory team race to 99 MotoGP wins. Then, after Marquez\u2019s injury and Aprilia Racing\u2019s impressive rise, the dominant team suddenly endured a dry spell. Neither Marquez nor Bagnaia were able to win a Grand Prix in 12 attempts until the MotoGP circus rolled into Balaton Park.<\/p>\n
A longer wait than anticipated, but finally, the 100-victory mark was notched up in some style. It was Marquez\u2019s 12th win donning Bologna red, which places the World Champion fourth on the list of winners in the factory Ducati team – two behind Andrea Dovizioso, 11 away from Casey Stoner, and 19 adrift of current teammate Pecco.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Since Loris Capriossi\u2019s win at the 2003 Catalan GP, the first for Ducati’s factory outfit, 10 other riders have clinched victory representing the Italian marque’s famous red. And of the 11, three of those have pocketed the ultimate prize for Ducati: the MotoGP World Championship – those being Stoner in 2007, Bagnaia in 2022 and 2023, and Marquez in 2025.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Number of wins for Ducati’s factory team:
31 \u2013 Pecco Bagnaia
23 \u2013 Casey Stoner
14 \u2013 Andrea Dovizioso
12 \u2013 Marc Marquez
7 \u2013 Loris Capirossi
3 \u2013 Jack Miller
3 \u2013 Jorge Lorenzo
3 \u2013 Enea Bastianini
2 \u2013 Danilo Petrucci
1 \u2013 Troy Bayliss
1 \u2013 Andrea Iannone<\/p>\n
Marquez and Bagnaia will aim to add to that tally in 2026, before 2027 births a brand-new era in MotoGP. Congratulations to Ducati for the milestone achievement, and here\u2019s to more battles between the Bologna bullets and the rest of MotoGP\u2019s elite in this enthralling campaign.<\/p>\n
But hold on, before you go. To celebrate Ducati’s 100th factory team win, we’ve made the first, 25th, 50th, and 75th victories free to enjoy:\u00a0<\/p>\n
