Hello to all the Repsol Team followers! It’s been a pretty stressful time, but between the races in Aragón and Valencia, I’ve had enough free time to write and tell you a bit more about myself. In this case, I will tell you about my interest in gaming devices and the games I spend the most time playing.

️ Álex Márquez blog: The number 73 chooses his favourite videogames

The truth is that ever since I was little, I’ve enjoyed playing on different videogame platforms. I especially remember that when I was younger, I’d spend a lot of time playing a Rally game, Colin McRae (what a game XD!) and I’ve always had more fun playing sport games: FIFA, the MotoGP game, or the Formula 1 game.

It’s hard to say for sure, but the game that I have played most is probably FIFA because you can compete with other people online and that gives you extra adrenaline. However, I have to say that lately I’ve been playing Call of Duty a lot and, especially MotoGP, due to the competition organised by DORNA during the lockdown among some of the riders of the grid. I can say that I’m the champion of MotoGP I can say that I’m the champion of

Well, seriously, I like e-sports but I can’t see myself competing with professional players. They train as much as we do, they play more than eight hours per day, and you have to have a lot of dedication and skills that I don’t have at the moment to measure up. Additionally, we riders don’t have much extra time. We have to train a lot, especially this year as the schedule is incredibly demanding. We have a lot of consecutive GPs and we have to train as much on the track as off of it. I also really like to go on walks, walk the dogs, etc.

During lockdown, we did have enough time to be able to enjoy playing games but now that we are busier, I tend to take advantage of the wait times at the airport to play games on my mobile. However, the gaming console I like most is PlayStation. That is where I tend to compete with Marc and I have to say that I usually win most games. When we were locked up at home, we had a lot of time to play together and it was fun. It helped us get through the situation, which I hope isn’t too difficult for all of you.

Well, that is all for today’s blog post. I’m sending you warm hugs and a lot of courage to face the difficult situation we are living through. I hope that all of this changes very soon and that we can see each other on the circuit. Hugs for you all!

Álex Márquez.
