ASSEN (Holland): Spanish world champion Marc Marquez is targeting a record eighth consecutive win at Saturday’s Dutch Grand Prix, with Italian veteran Valentino Rossi hoping to deny him at one of his favourite tracks.

Second-place Rossi, who Marquez edged out to claim a spectacular seventh victory in front of a home crowd in Catalunya 12 days ago, will have a point to prove in Assen where he has won six GP races.
