As previously anticipated, this past weekend Marc Marquez took part in the second round of the 2013 GSeries BPA championship and the reigning Moto2 champion caused some surprise as he finished 7th overall in his first ever four wheel event.
Driving a VW Golf GTI Mk1 in 2WD drive class at the Grandvalira Circuit in Andorra, the new Repsol Honda rookie rider managed an excellent control his car along the ice track to finish a close second in the first heat and third in the second, which qualified him on the front row amongst 17 partecipants.
During the actual race Marquez slid out, but was able to rejoin and complete the race in 7th, not bad for a four wheel novice especially in those highly difficult racing conditions.
