Marc Márquez won 10 consecutive MotoGP races at the start of the 2014 season. His streak ran through the opening 10 Grands Prix, an extraordinary beginning to his successful title defence.
Márquez won in Qatar, the Americas, Argentina, Spain, France, Italy, Catalonia, the Netherlands, Germany and Indianapolis. The run made him the first rider to win the first 10 premier-class races of a season and established a dominant early championship lead.
The streak ended at the Czech Grand Prix in Brno, where Dani Pedrosa, Márquez’s Repsol Honda teammate, won. Márquez still finished the season with 13 victories and secured a second successive MotoGP Riders’ Championship, beating Valentino Rossi by 67 points.
The common mistake is answering 13, which was Márquez’s total number of race wins during the entire 2014 season. The question asks only for the consecutive opening victories, so 10 is the single canonical answer.
