Although Márquez has won several championships, he has always turned down using the number 1 as a racing number, favouring his #93 – which is the year of his birth.
The 93 is displayed with white text and a red background on his bike and in official merchandise, being compatible with Honda's red-orange-navy blue livery.
Márquez' father Julià has followed him around the world in his team garage and is a permanent fixture in the Grand Prix paddock, while his mother's appearances are rarer.
His younger brother Álex Márquez is also a motorcycle racing world champion, having won the Moto3 class in 2014 and the Moto2 class in 2019.
The duo became the first pair of brothers to win road racing world championships the same season and repeated the feat again in 2019.
Five years earlier, Márquez jokingly referred to him preferring bikes over girls in a 2014 interview, but conceded it was a  "difficult question" and also added that in spite of him being unafraid on a bike, he'd never go out on a boat at sea.
Aside from his native tongues of Catalan and Spanish, Márquez is a fluent speaker of English.
Even after becoming world champion, rather than moving to a tax haven like many fellow racers, he still lives in his home town of Cervera, with his website citing "training opportunities" on dirt bikes in the location as "ideal".
His official fanclub is also located in Cervera, chaired by his uncle Ramón, adjacent to an exhibition at the town museum where memorabilia including championship-winning bikes are displayed.
Márquez is also involved with several charities.

Marquez motif since 2012 has been the Ant.
This can be seen on various gloves, helmets and pit boards he and his team uses.
The reasoning behind this has been when he started out riding motorcycles, his size was diminutive that the team had to add ballast to his bikes to compensate for his lack of weight.
Therefore, his team nicknamed him an ant for the comparison of the animal which is so small but has the strength to carry 100 times as much as its body weight.

As of October 2018 on the day of his fifth MotoGP title, Márquez had close to 4 million Facebook followers, being one the largest motor racers and Spanish athletes on the platform.
A Roman Catholic, Márquez along with four other MotoGP riders met Pope Francis at the Vatican in September 2018.
Márquez is a fan of Catalonia's most successful football club FC Barcelona, and has visited the club and its first team in the past.
