Does Alex Markes have “mental blocks” when brother fights Mark in Motogp?

At the first three Motogp weekend proof in 2025, it is easy to conclude Alex marks When it comes to beating his brother Mark, there is a mental obstacle to win.

Finally, Mark is a six -time Motogp world champion, while Alex is still patiently waiting for his first race win in the top category.

In this phase of the season, however, Alex Marx has established itself as the most consistent rider of 2025. While Alex has not won any race, he did not miss the podium or made a single mistake. But he is still to defeat his brother in a direct fight. On the surface, it suggests that Mark is a difficult burden for Mark Alex, which naturally shows Mark with praise, as the prominent role of Marki’s factory is asked about it.

Last Thursday, one of the questions directed on Alex, ahead of the hectic US Grand Prix, revolted around the mental fight with his brother. “I’m younger,” he replied. “Ever since I was born, I have a habit of suffering those mental games.”

Three days after that half-incomplete, half a serious response, the younger Marx left Austin as the leader of the points standing, one point ahead of the mark, which led to the pack, crashed in mid-day on Sunday.

Despite reaching a new level in terms of performance and continuity in Gracini Ducati in Alex 2025, she may still come as a humble several times. For example, in Texas, he said that he happily finished second in every race this year.

This comment was made in his context, which potentially wins the battle of the World Championship points on the basis of stability, so it would be wrong to read the lack of hunger in those words. His move on the top of the table on Sunday revealed how much consecutive points can actually be.

However, the fact that Alex is a younger brother and leaves Mark behind, it means that amateur psychologists always have a lot to get their teeth. But the mark of the mark where Alex provides some valuable insights mentally.

According to Mark’s revelations in Texas, there is no hero worship between Marke’s Brothers. In fact, he describes his brother as a rival who gives him a minimum idolatry because he has seen his weakest side.

When an inquiry is made about a potential mental block, when Alex can occur, when both on the track and closed can compete for the situation against his lifetime benchmark, Mark not only rejected the idea, but also claimed contrary.

“If Alex had any kind of mental block, he could not lead the race in Thailand or Argentina, with a rider, and does not make a single mistake. Not one. He never focuses for a second.”

“Among all the riders on the grid, the one who knows me best – that also makes him the minimum respect. He knows that I am meat and blood; he saw me suffering at home when I was struggling.”

Knowing each other about the smallest details, the mark and Alex train together, which means each knows how fast the other is at any time. For this reason, and based on what he has seen on three weekends so far, Mark is sure that if things continue in this way, it’s only time – perhaps not for a long time – before Alex crosses the finish line ahead of him.

“My brother is a difficult worker,” he said. “He is in a good rhythm. I have said it earlier and I will say it again: he will beat me in more than one race, more than two, and more than three. He coincidentally is not a Moto 2 and Moto 3 world champion.

Mark told Motorsport.com that even by the end of 2024, he had already noticed the perseverance that has now taken his brother to the top of the championship standing: “Last year, he had already finished very strongly. I felt what was happening now.
