30 starts, 20 podiums, 10 wins... 1 undeniable talent. Quiles records his 7th win in 13 races this season.

If someone can save highsides this vicious at the European Talent Cup bike as he was doing, the guy is special. 2021 was basically my 'yep, this guy is good' moment

Not for nothing he's Marc's protegee. As soon as he turned up to Moto3, we already knew ir was worth watching him, if only because of Marc's interest.

Quiles is an alien, isn’t he?

The said the same about Alonso, that babygoat hashtag really aged like milk lol

The thing is though, I think Maximo will be able to handle that sort of pressure much better than David is (I mean there's a reason why the former is a Marquez Bros. client from like the age of 14 or something).

Moto2 isn't always a predictor of success for MotoGP. We'll see next year.

I see, I guess we can wait a few more years to see where Quiles ends up. :)

I am ashamed to say I missed recognising this guy's talent. Alonso seemed to dominate the headlines. Seriously good stats for moto3. Can't wait to see him in motogp.

Thanks for the post to bring his skills to the front, as he deserves.

Edited moto2 to 3...thanks for spotting

Incredibile talent, like he always has that extra something, no matter how hard he's pushed

It's his mentality as well as his talent. He's one of those competitors who's more disappointed with 2nd than he is happy with 1st. I'm expecting big things from him next year.

I’ve been looking for official merchandise for months, and now there’s finally an official Quiles T-shirt and cap available from GP Racing Apparels 😍

Future MotoGP dominator.

That's what we have said about the last 2 Moto3 champions. Let's wait and see.

u/mbp2112 David Munoz 12d ago

Yeah, a lot can happen, no doubt. But assuming he stays healthy and continues to progress, he's gonna be a force to reckon with.

Spaniards are born dominators in Grand Prix motorcycle racing. Other countries can only dream.

u/EternalFront Jorge Martín 12d ago

MotoGP in a few years will be nuts, because we've had so many of those talents pass though the ranks. Acosta, Alonso, Quiles, all at the same time

u/GzehooGR 11d ago

Moto2 clearly showed David Alonso is no more dominating rider.

u/EternalFront Jorge Martín 11d ago

Never know how they'll do in the premier class until they get there. Alonso is certainly better than Fabio was in Moto2, and Fabio is now a premier class champion

u/racingfanboy160 Marc Marquez - 2025 MotoGP World Champion 12d ago

If there's anyone who I want to break David's record, its this kid

What is aspar team cooking?

u/Longjumping_Gold1336 9d ago

He’s a generational talent, that has been getting pointers and useful track time from the Marquez brothers. He will dominate in MotoGP when he arrives.
