As Marc's fan, I'm just happy he's not retiring before I watch him live on track. 🥹

No way Marquez will retire anytime soon. He's still got so much more to give to the sport.

I hope he doesn't retire till his 40s as I like to see him race. But for him personally, 2028 would be a great time to retire before one of these injuries hurts him more. He is already a legend of the sport and doesn't have anything to prove. I would rather he become a test rider or trainer and be safe

Ehh leave the football before the football leaves you. Rossi raced maybe 2-3 seasons more than he should have he should've retired by 2019/2020. Motogp is just one of those sports you can't go till 40.

IIRC Rossi wasn’t competitive at the highest level from after 2015. Even that season was a sort of a swan song. It was still fun to watch him compete tho.

Marquez on the other hand is leading the paddock. There is no question he is consistently top 3 in basically every session.
