Marc Marquez Youngest MotoGP World Champion
Marc Marquez is now the youngest rider to be crowned MotoGP world champion and the first rookie to take the title in 35 years.
Spaniard Marc Marquez, at 20 years of age, has become the youngest rider to ever win the MotoGP world championship as he finished third at the Valencia Grand Prix.
Two-time world champion Jorge Lorenzo claimed his eighth victory of the season, but it wasn't enough to overturn Marquez's 13-point lead, which he held heading into the race.
In the end there was just four points between them. Marquez's Repsol Honda teammate Dani Pedrosa finished second.
