BOMBSHELL 🔴 Three MotoGP Teams, Including Yamaha, Demand FIM Ban Marc Márquez from Next Race – “He’s an Illegal Rider,” Pressure Mounts on Jorge Viegas

💥 MotoGP has been shaken by a dramatic legal move, as three teams—reportedly including Yamaha—have filed a formal complaint urging the FIM to ban Marc Márquez from the next Grand Prix. The teams accuse Márquez of gaining an unfair advantage through alleged violations of tyre pressure regulations during his controversial victory at the Czech GP. One team representative was quoted saying, “He’s an illegal rider,” sparking outrage and reigniting long-standing tensions over Márquez’s aggressive riding style and past infractions.

⚠️ The pressure on FIM President Jorge Viegas has intensified, with team officials demanding an immediate decision before the upcoming race weekend. However, the FIM Court of Appeal has already ruled in favor of Márquez in a previous case, stating that his penalty from the Portuguese GP was served by missing the Argentina round due to injury. This precedent has made it difficult for the FIM to justify further sanctions, despite the mounting pressure from rival teams.

🎙️ Viegas responded with a carefully worded statement, saying, “We will not rewrite rules under pressure.” The seven-word declaration was seen as a firm stance against external influence and a defense of the sport’s regulatory integrity. While Márquez remains eligible to race, the controversy has sparked heated debate among fans, with some accusing the FIM of favoritism and others defending Márquez’s right to compete after serving his previous penalty.

🏁 As MotoGP heads into its next round, the paddock remains divided. The legal challenge may not succeed, but it has exposed deeper frustrations within the sport over rule enforcement and rider accountability. Whether Márquez continues his winning streak or faces renewed scrutiny, one thing is clear: the battle off the track is now just as fierce as the one on it.
