The connection with him of the two centaur grandsons was well known in the environment.

Marc Marquez and his brother Alex have had to face a very serious bereavement in the past few hours. In fact, Ramon, not only their beloved grandfather but one of the family figures who had most supported the careers of both at a young age and beyond, passed away on Sunday. In fact, it is no secret that the man had been of great support to the Gresini newcomer during the last few seasons at Honda, which were marked by a variety of problems, accidents and injuries.

"Many thanks for everything you gave us and taught us. Rest in peace. We love you", è the greeting that Marc and Alex Marquez wanted to dedicate to Grandpa Ramon in a post published on the social channels of both. Accompanying the message are also several pictures in which the two brother pilots smile together with their grandfather. The affection that bound them had also been recounted in the documentary "Marc Marquez All In" released on Prime Video.

Among the circumstances in which Marc Marquez had spoken publicly about his grandfather was a January 2023 interview, in which he stated: "It was he who told me that in this condition it made sense for me to retire. But I made him a promise, that the one to the humerus would be my last operation. I had to però try, because they were finding a solution to my problems. And since then è everything" changed.
