( CNN ) -- Marc Marquez , Spain 's racing prodigy , finished fourth in the Czech MotoGP Sunday ending his hopes of winning a record eleven races in a row . His Honda teammate Dani Pedrosa won his first race of the season in Brno , where he also won in 2012 . Yamaha duo Jorge Lorenzo and Valentino Rossi finished second and third respectively . `` I was able to do a good race , I 'm happy , I had a good pace and it 's another podium , '' Rossi said after the race . `` It was a great pleasure to beat Marc one time . '' Before the race all eyes were on Marquez and whether he could beat Italian legend Giacomo Agostini 's record of winning the first ten races of the 1968 , 1969 and 1970 seasons . Whilst a race season only lasted ten races back then , no one has won the first eleven in the modern era . But his Spanish teammate Pedrosa instead prevailed , a victory that British two-time World Superbike Champion James Toseland believes will stand Marquez in good stead . `` I think everyone appreciates the dedication he puts in , '' Toseland said in an interview with CNN 's World Sport . `` He 's a World Champion at 20 , but he 's been at it for 15 years ... The handcuffs are off with that fourth place . Now Marc can relax . He ca n't win them all now . '' Despite finishing fourth Marquez is still 77 points ahead in the standings and will hope to bounce back in Great Britain in two weeks time .
