Marc Marquez (-275):
Six-time MotoGP World Championship winner Marc Marquez started the season on a high, winning in Thailand. The Cerveri was in control throughout the opening weekend and now prepares for Argentina. A country where he has three wins under the bike. If Marquez triumphs in Gran Chaco region, he will tie Angel Nieto as the most successful Spanish MotoGP rider.
Francesco Bagnaia (+475):
Francesco Bagnaia endured a tough trip to Termas de Rio Hondo in 2023, finishing second to last ahead of Brad Binder. The Italian upped his game last season, winning 11 Sunday races, but multiple crashes in Saturday sprint races saw him gift points to eventual Championship winner, Jorge Martin. “Pecco” picked up a podium in the season opener and is looking to return to winning ways in Santiago Del Estero.
Alex Marquez (+550):
The younger Marquez brother, Alex, stepped up in South East Asia to earn the sixth podium of his MotoGP career. It is only the second time that the Marquez brothers have shared the stage, and the Gresini rider is hitting his straps in his sixth full season on the circuit.

Marco Bezzecchi (+1600):
Defending Argentine GP Champion Marco Bezzecchi arrives in Latin America aiming to preserve the title he won in 2023. Bezzecchi last returned to the winner’s circle in 2023 at the Indian Grand Prix, he has now switched to Aprilia after enjoying early success on a Ducati.
Brad Binder (+3300):
South African, Brad Binder is flying under the radar this season as his new teammate Pedro Acosta grabs the attention. Despite the Acosta fanfare, “Bradical” finished eighth in “The land of the Smiles”, 11 spots ahead of Pedro. The fifth best rider in 2024 returns to the circuit where he won the sprint, just under two years ago.
Expert Pick for Argentina MotoGP
Championship leader Marc Marquez is an easy pick for the Gran Premio YPF Energia de Argentina MotoGP. The Spaniard dominates the honors roll at this track, with most poles, wins and the all-time lap record. “The Ant of Cervera” has won this race three times and he is chasing history to cement his place in Spanish MotoGP history. Marquez carries short odds at -275, potentially paying $27.27 on a $20 wager.

Fabio Quartararo said Francesco Bagnaia had every right to be furious with Ducati over his ongoing problems, and added that he would feel the same way if a teammate kept beating him while he struggled. Speaking at the Red Bull Ring during Austrian Grand Prix media duties, Quartararo said he did not see a real parallel between Bagnaia’s situation and his own Yamaha troubles. He said he would try to understand why he could not match a winning teammate, but did not know the details of Bagnaia’s relationship with Ducati.
Bagnaia has been dealing with rear-grip problems, while Ducati staff said he had tried irrational things to improve the GP26 without finding the root cause. Marc Marquez has continued to dominate Ducati this season, with five race wins, and remains in the title fight despite missing multiple rounds. Quartararo has also been openly frustrated with Yamaha. He said he usually raises problems directly with the team, but recently told French media he would stop helping develop the bike because he was not allowed to test Pirelli tires on Monday in Austria, then later said those comments could have been better thought through. He repeated his criticism of Yamaha’s bike and said the refusal to let him join next Monday’s Red Bull Ring test had added to recent tension. Quartararo added that rain would make matters worse because Yamaha already lacked grip, especially in braking and corner entry.
