“HE IS MY INSPIRATION” Marc Marquez revealed 3 reasons why he considers Messi as his motivation to compete. Immediately, Messi surprised the entire sports world with 5 touching words sent to Marc Marquez 😍❤️
Marc Márquez recently made headlines around the world with his touching tribute to Lionel Messi, revealing that the Argentine superstar is a huge source of motivation for him. Here are three reasons Márquez gave to explain why Messi is his role model, along with five words Messi sent Márquez that left the sports world in awe.
First of all, Márquez said that Messi is a man who radiates perseverance and relentless professionalism. In an interview, the MotoGP racer stressed that Messi always lets his actions speak for themselves – on the pitch, Messi works hard, endures criticism and huge expectations, and still stands tall, still giving his all for the team. This makes Márquez feel that, in racing, when faced with similar pressures – injuries, failures, criticism – he can learn from Messi how to keep the faith, stay strong, and keep going without letting anything shake his goal.
Second, Márquez sees Messi as a symbol of humility and the ability to let others speak for him through his achievements, not through boasting. He says Messi “speaks through the arena”, through his goals, through decisive moments, not through pride or boasting. This is clearly reflected in the way Márquez sees himself: he does not need to declare himself the best, but lets the fans, the opponents, and history judge – as long as he keeps working hard, keeps fighting hard on the track.
Third, Márquez says that Messi inspires him by the way he faces difficulties and bounces back after failures. Messi has been through tough times – ups and downs, injuries, pressure from the media, from the public – but he never lets setbacks or pressure sap his motivation, and always finds a way to fight back and recover. Márquez says that during races when he has to overcome injuries, setbacks, or mistakes in the race, he often thinks of Messi: if Messi can do it, then he can do it; if Messi keeps trying, then Márquez must keep pushing himself beyond his limits.
Recently, when he won the San Marino MotoGP, Márquez had a Messi-inspired celebration – he took off his jersey (in this case, his racing suit) and showed it off, just like Messi does after important goals.
And in that moment, Messi did not stay silent. He sent Márquez “five touching words” that quickly spread throughout the entire sports world: “Siempre contando contigo, campeón mío.” Rough translation: “Always believe in you, my champion.” These words, though simple, touched Márquez’s heart, and the hearts of his fans, because they showed the connection between the two men – two icons in two different sports – through respect and inspiration.
It is the intersection of Messi’s perseverance, humility and ability to overcome difficulties that helps Marc Márquez find new motivation every time he steps onto the track. When Márquez takes off his racing suit, showing off his Ducati colors after a victory – an action inspired by Messi – it is not just a simple celebration, but a message: every effort, every failure is recognized, and nothing can replace passion and determination.
With Messi as his inspiration, Márquez does not just race to win stages, to win titles, but also races to express himself, races to make every mistake a stepping stone, races to prove that the respect for legends like Messi is always valuable over time.
