MotoGP Austin: An amazing Marc Marquez achieves victory at COTA and enters the history of the Top Class
The Honda rookie wins in his second MotoGP race and beats Spencer
Marc Marquez wrote a page in the history of motorcycling today in Austin, Texas. THEThe Honda rookie in fact achieved victory in the Top Class on his second attempt, becoming the youngest rider to win a Grand Prix in the premier class. The record belonged to Freddie Spencer, who just yesterday had the record of youngest rider to achieve pole in the most prestigious class of the world championship taken away by the Spanish Repsol Honda Team.
It was wonderful to see Marquez riding on a circuit that was new to everyone, an immense talent for a rider who already demonstrated in tests a month ago that he could enter the elite of motorcycling and who today achieved his twenty-seventh victory in the world championship (10 in 125cc, 16 in Moto2 and 1 in MotoGP). Today he beat his team-mate Dani Pedrosa, who after having "taken them" in Qatar, has to surrender to the "cabroncito" again today. Also on the podium was Jorge Lorenzo's Yamaha, which preceded Crutchlow, Bradl, Rossi, Dovizioso and Bautista.
Marquez therefore "arrogantly" enters the fight for the title already in his debut season. Today he has in fact demonstrated that he can fight and beat opponents who until last year he only saw from the outside. Of course it's only the second race but if a good day starts in the morning it will be a tough nut to crack for everyone. In the world rankings he now shares first place with compatriot Jorge Lorenzo (the two have 41 points). Pedrosa follows at 33 and Rossi at 30. To see the updated MotoGP ranking click here.
Race report
Second race of the 2013 season for the riders of the MotoGP class. It runs on the new COTA circuit (in Texas), home to the Red Bull Grand Prix Of The Americas.
Yesterday, with the new qualifying format (everything is played in 15 minutes in the "time attack"), the first pole in the Top Class was won by an amazing Marc Marquez, who thus beats Freddie Spencer's record, which until yesterday was He was the youngest driver to achieve a pole in the premier class. The Repsol Honda Team rider in fact achieved this "milestone" yesterday at 20 years and 62 days, while the American did it in Jarama at 20 years and 153 days. His compatriots Dani Pedrosa (his teammate) and Jorge Lorenzo, reigning Yamaha champion, will start on the front row with him.
Second row for the Yamaha SAT of Cal Crutchlow's Team Tech 3, for the Honda RC213V of German Stefan Bradl's Team LCR and for the Ducati Desmosedici GP13 of Andrea Dovizioso from Forlì, who in practice as well as in Losail manages to get the best out of the Red from Borgo Panigale.
Only third row for Valentino Rossi, who will start with the eighth fastest time between Alvaro Bautista and the sensational Aleix Espargarò, who brought his ART APrilia to ninth position, ahead of the Ducati prototypes (Hayden 10th, Spies 12th and Iannone 13th) and rookie Bradley Smith's Yamaha SAT, 11th. All ready, twenty-one laps to go (for 115.773 km). The traffic lights go out, the fastest at the start is Dani Pedrosa who precedes Bradl, Marquez, Lorenzo, Crutchlow and Rossi. Bautista and Dovizioso follow.
The first lap ends, Pedrosa in the lead ahead of Marquez, Lorenzo, Bradl, Crutchlow, Rossi, Bautista and Dovizioso. Lorenzo is going strong and doesn't let the Hondas escape, while behind Bautista attacks and passes Valentino Rossi. Behind it is a battle between Stefan Bradl and Cal Crutchlow, who are fighting for fourth place. Rossi is seventh and isn't riding very fast. Error by Crutchlow, the Briton from Team Tech 3 goes wide and comes back in front of Bautista and Rossi.
The fastest lap goes to Marc Marquez, the poleman is now just over three tenths behind Pedrosa, his team-mate. Lorenzo loses a little ground, now over a second and a half. Meanwhile, Andrea Dovizioso with the Ducati is eighth and not far from Rossi. Meanwhile, the Pesaro native attacks Bautista, moving up to sixth position while Marquez is very close to Pedrosa.
After five laps the Top Ten is Pedrosa, Marquez, Lorenzo, Bradl, Crutchlow, Rossi, Bautista, Dovizioso, Hayden and Iannone. First CRT is Aleix Espargarò's ART, which is eleventh and ahead of Spies and Smith, with the Ducati and Yamaha prototypes.
The two Hondas of the internal team are on the run. Lorenzo is now more than two seconds behind, while Bradl and Crutchlow are separated from each other by half a second. The gap between these two and Rossi is around 2 and a half seconds, while Bautista is close to the Yamaha rider from Pesaro. Attack by Crutchlow, the British rider from Team Tech 3 passes the German rider from Team LCR, moving into fourth position.
We have now reached the halfway point of the race. The dominance of the Hondas of Pedrosa and Marquez continues, while Andrea Dovizioso's race is decent, overtaking Bautista to take seventh position and chasing Valentino Rossi. Cal Crutchlow had an excellent race and, despite going straight in the initial stages of the race, was fourth and even set his best lap. The Brit laps at the same pace as Lorenzo, while Stefan Bradl, fifth who is still in the top positions, was a little lost. In addition to Dovizioso seventh, the other Ducatis are in ninth and tenth position with Hayden and Iannone and in thirteenth position with Spies.
Marquez attacks, with nine laps to go the Honda rookie takes the lead with a millimetric overtaking on Pedrosa, who however doesn't give up. The battle between the two Spaniards from the Repsol Honda Team was beautiful. Should Marquez win, he would be the youngest winner ever in the Top Class, this after yesterday with pole he had taken the record away from the same holder, Freddie Spencer. Meanwhile, Lukas Pesek falls.
Five laps to go, Marquez is still ahead of Pedrosa and looking to make a break for it. In some places he is faster than his team-mate, but in other places Pedrosa recovers, bringing himself back behind the 2012 Moto2 champion. Lorenzo, Crutchlow, Bradl, Rossi and Dovizioso follow.
Last lap, Marquez goes on to win and enters the history of motorcycling by taking away the record of youngest rider to do so in the Top Class from Freddie Spencer. Jorge Lorenzo was also on the podium together with the two Honda riders, while Valentino Rossi and Andrea Dovizioso finished in sixth and seventh position.

Let's hope for the next one, because it can't be like this!!!! :D
And now go wild!!!! :D
EneA :)
Marquez great!!!!!
I really wanted him to win and he won! And go!
Pedrosa has always been the one who races in MotoGP: second in his own team and that's good enough that Repsol will let him race until he's 60.
Rossi...I continue to think what I have always thought and what has always been seen: the combination of the very serious accident to his leg and the accident in which poor Sic died has turned off some light bulb in his head.
The curve of his career can now truly be defined as a parabola and certainly not a sinusoid as all of us "yellow clowns" hoped... But sooner or later it had to arrive.
PS
Crutchlow…he's sooo crazy! But effective.
I would be really curious whether or not there is any difference between his bike and Lorenzo's...
Look, I'll tell you...
On this lap Vale wasn't able to sort out the front at all, and it was visible to the naked eye how any bautista could beat him in braking... in the wu he seemed a little better due to slightly lower temperatures, with the heat the problems returned of the qualification…
The value of 10 years ago would still have made the difference, but as it should be, time passes for everyone... even so, I'm still convinced that we will still have a lot of fun... ;)
Aeneas
Hello Aeneas!
I understand what you're saying, but if he had problems with the front it's not because they "sabotaged" his bike, in the sense, let me explain: Cal and Jorge were racing with the same bike and the professional mania with which Rossi tries to fine-tune the bike is unchanged before the GPs (Cecchinello spoke about it in an interview yesterday).
I think that Rossi's talent cannot be discussed, but today there are a combination of causes (age of course; the mangled leg of someone who had NOTHING ever happened in his entire career; personal involvement in the dynamics of the Sic accident ) make Rossi the one we saw tonight.
Of course, there will come races in which he will probably get on the podium again, but that's not the point, it's that I hoped to see him fight at every corner "at least" with Lorenzo on the same bike, regardless of the position in the race and at the finish... .
However Marquez is fantastic: he rides like Stoner, I think he is stronger than Stoner, but he is 1.000.000 times nicer than Stoner!
The same goes, he said that his goal was to stay calm... he didn't even think about it on this track... ;)
Vale was penalized too much when braking, he can be okay with that.
Vale was already struggling here in the tests, but as I told you, there will still be fun to be had... ;)
Aeneas
little but sure!!!
;-)
Guys...let's not get ridiculous...what's the story of the mangled leg?? and the incident with the sic? ..nonsense..Rossi is no longer as fast as he used to be because you can't always stay at the top....his era is over..sooner or later it had to end...in short, he's old now..but it's natural..it was more than it's logical to predict that Rossi will still be fast but no longer a winner... well... today Rossi can still be fast... let's say even compete on some circuits with the fastest... but he's no longer a horse to bet on...
obviously you can find me here in Corco... without further ado, Rossi may not be as fast as he used to be, but to be sure I would wait for the European races... ;)
This track has been indigestible since the tests, and even a small problem with the disc made the already not rosy situation worse... in my opinion we will have a complete picture of the situation after the European classics.
Aeneas
@Stony me
We understood each other badly, sorry, it's my fault (I was taught that if someone DIDN'T understand what you were saying it was your fault).
First of all, I stated that mine is just a Personal Opinion, like you have yours, and it's not that my opinions are nonsense while someone else's "personal opinions" are pure gold regardless.
Second: estimate by saying the same thing you and I because I put the "passing time" first, so much so that I spoke of an obviously descending parable precisely because time passes and you can't always be at the Top: we'll see what they do and where all the others will be at the same age (one has already moved on to be a ranchero).
After which I maintain that two episodes like those mentioned can have a significant influence, perhaps even UNCONSCIOUSLY, on the psyche of an individual and NONE of us can establish whether this is actually the case or not as it is a thesis - precisely - questionable, therefore subject to different opinions.
Just respect other people's opinions even without sharing, and everyone lives happily ever after.
maybe changing the chassis….
:-))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
yesssss!
But even changing the channel…
;-)
But guys, what can you tell me about these new figures from Mediaset: this Mengoni, Rangoni, Rengo Rengio, in the studio in Fuori Giri, and this Anna Cappella (name-omen):
unwatchable, unlistenable, unplayable!
And you were complaining about Beltramo & Co.??
Luckily the Porx year is spent on SKY, go ahead!
I much preferred Bobbiese (but I'm biased here, because I know him very well in person).
...you're talking about a commentator with counter c+++s...remember when he was on the "Starting Grid"? He was also more impartial, if he had to complain he would do it... then it's clear that by moving to Mediaset he became slightly "bourgeoisized" and let some things slide that he wouldn't have let pass on the private Lombard broadcaster, not least the insult to Ducati by Cereghini...you who are Valentiniano will be able to understand me...
fairyman
Look at Bob, I know him personally, and many have criticized him unnecessarily and shoot him down….
For me he is one of the few who knows about it, with Mediaset he was let's say "calmed down" (read between the lines :) ).
GdP is still there and he always presents it. It is the only program that talks seriously about engines.
We talk about everything there, not just Rossi...
When you need to criticize him, you criticize him, and when he deserves compliments, you give him…
That broadcast reflects the way I would like to address our opinions on motorcycles, but it is light years away from what is done here... It used to be done, but now it is no longer possible to do it.
HELLO FATMAN AND BIBO... AND I'LL ALSO BRING IN MUGELLO.. how's it going???? wonderful day right?? today there's no need to even talk about problems given that since Friday we knew how it would end. I must say that after a bottle of Montenegro the evening is happier...."ALL STANDING ON THE SOFA"!!!!! to applaud a super rookie!!!!
…hello, test….I didn't see the race because I was out for dinner (strange, I never go out and just yesterday I went out, worse than Lyonn)…but I recorded it and, seeing it again, I have to say that it there was a comeback from eighth to sixth, so I wouldn't tie my head up before breaking it ah, ah, ah...I'll tell you, in my opinion he wins the others by gap...let's hope...he's still the strongest of all the times... even prehistoric ones where people raced on stone motorbikes... what can I say? It's a shame that many on the forum are still yellow with anger...and to think that I had to fill myself with Nutella...right Mike58? It will be for the next time, when, as already said, he will win by distance... today I'm good, not like you canaries... get excited about the next race!!!
Hi everyone
pernat and company
WHAT RUFFIANS
they change marquez's idol depending on who they interview………..
Anyway, an unforgettable weekend...
:-)))))
@bibo. you know what??? this damn Ducati, even if it's blue with monster sponsors, it's not good!!!!!!
do you see??
Vale admits that Marquez is a phenomenon
to be more likable it was enough for him to also say it about a stoner....
He also said that he had the record in pieces in front of him... ;)
What are you doing? Do you believe what you want…? ;)
They are or have all been phenomena in their own way, reds, stoners, lores, marcs... you don't get to those levels if you aren't one, then being able to win for a long time, in all categories, and with different motorcycle manufacturers... that's for few phenomena, and posterity will judge. ;)
Aeneas
It was also enough for Stoner to treat Rossi the way Marquez treats him...
The truth always has two sides, bibo.
hahahahahahahahahahahah
you're absolutely right, brake disc problems, tire problems... did they put a Michelin on him???
even when they talked about the wall, they called it Lorenzo's wall...
Marquez very strong...young energy with veteran management, this is impressive. Dovizioso leads the Ducati well and Lorenzo the Yamaha. Pedrosa is history repeating itself and Rossi is back on half duty.
...see, gigetto...you make a calm and self-evident comment and someone rubs you red just because you insinuate that the paramedic is still on duty...do you understand why I come in and insult you? Expect everything when he wins... I hope you are a "redhead" who doesn't suffer too much, not like others in the forum...
I don't understand Hayden, Iannone & Co....
But isn't it the motorbike?
Maybe Dovizioso will also win the world championship on that bike, but FOR NOW it remains the bike of only 1 rider: it all depends on having the kul@ to find it: the day before yesterday Stoner, today Dovi.
w-the-sic??
what's happening to you???
;-)
Aeneas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
do you think I don't know????
but I will never admit it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
;-)))
ehehehe^^ ok… ;)
Aeneas
Guys I'm turning off the PC, see you tomorrow!!!
me too... little film with my wife and at bedtime :)
Aeneas
..you know how annoying ;-)
in fact I returned to the blog after a short while... ;)
She's already asleep... hihihi ^^
Aeneas
but even the day after tomorrow, don't worry, take it easy...
:-))
Anyway Marc isn't worth Stoner..
..obviously it's provocative…we'll never know…
In my opinion, Stoner was in no way inferior to Marc in terms of pure speed, but where I see Marc having an advantage is in terms of personality...
Let me explain... I don't think the Spaniard would end up at the psychologist for some bad race... or rather with dairy product poisoning... ;)
He has a much less introverted personality than the Australian, and I think this will help him overcome the inevitable difficult moments that always arrive sooner or later...
.. and he probably won't choose to go fishing at just 26 years old... then who knows... :)
Aeneas
@Aeneas. but didn't you say you were watching a movie???? half an hour is the duration of a place in the sun....mercataro!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I should explain to you why I don't watch the movie anymore!?!?!?!?! are you serious?
And anyway, I didn't even know how long a place in the sun lasted... apparently you do... ;)
While you're at it, answer the question I asked you in the other news…. ;)
Aeneas
Enea..I can agree with your idea..in terms of pure speed and talent the Australian has no rivals, it is still early to judge Marc now but he will certainly write the next pages of motorcycling history (indeed he has already started being the youngest on pole and to win a GP), he could potentially be the new cannibal of MotoGP like Rossi was, on his side he not only has talent but also the fact that at just 20 years of age he is in HRC on a bike which, historically it suffers from Chatter, but now it seems more than perfect... anyway it's still a factory Honda... and then another important aspect is that Marc embodies a nation and an entire generation, he feels at ease in the environment and he is loved and pampered by everyone ;-)... he is a sort of predestined... the Australian is totally different, an introverted, irascible and tumultuous character, a rough Australian who has never loved the limelight and the paddock has never loved him. .as Nakamato Stoner said, he is like a three-year-old child on a motorbike...he always managed to amaze...positively and negatively...like when he said that the most impressive thing was that he managed to set the same times whether he used traction control or not...but also capable of surprising everyone by announcing his retirement after 3 GPs...I admired Stoner's wild riding style, his explosiveness, his speed...the title with the Ducati...but for me his best quality remains the honesty and frankness with which he sent everyone to hell and chose to live his life on the ranch in Australia next to his family... it was his life choice... and believe me... no one refuses 15 million for a season..but for a man there should be more important things than money...and perhaps this is his best quality...which is why Stoner is and will be No. 1 for me...
…out of tune, you made me cry -)))…if I wasn't a partner of testoner I would gladly support you…sigh!!!
…Fatman..it's not certain..I could also support you and Testoner together :-)
…ah, ah, ah….what a man…even if you're not a boxer you're truly male!!!
I agree with a lot of what you say, great driver, particular personality, but you make him sound like Saint Francis... hihihi ^^
I'm just saying that our judgments are always influenced by personal preferences, the famous glass that can be seen as half full or half empty...
Aeneas
…influenced by personal preferences up to a certain point Enea..Stoner has demonstrated all his strength in Honda and even more so in DUcati..he has also demonstrated all his limits, namely a character not inclined to calm which has repeatedly also influenced the races, furthermore he was never a great worker in fine tuning the bike if you want to talk about technique, what they say about his psychological subservience to Rossi is nonsense...Stoner suffered from food intolerance and his psychological subjection in hand-to-hand duels was called Ducati...which as you can see is a motorbike that doesn't allow you to fight on equal terms...as far as Rossi is concerned we are waiting for the European races but it is clear as day that his era ended with the victory of the 2009 title, Rossi is no longer fast... and I want to say one thing loud and clear... honor to Rossi who was able to rightfully enter the legend of the best of all time, 9 world titles, podiums, sensational victories and comebacks...an extraordinary talent...whatever you want...let's say he had the merit of giving media visibility to a world made of exhausts, oil, keys, tyres, connecting rods, gears, chronometers, cylinders , pistons etc, he certainly also had the merit of instilling the passion for racing in so many... as well as many rabble but too many times he proved himself to be little of a man...... he always had little respect for those who came behind him... moreover he was also lucky enough to always find himself on the top bikes... imagine he had climbed, by chance, on Stoner's Ducati and Stoner on Rossi's bike... in your opinion, how would it have ended? so as you can see my opinion also wants to be objective...and in any case these are two drivers who have in common only the fact of having raced on a track...too different in everything...except for the class...I recognize this...also if for me the Australian has a wilder class and is superior to him in terms of speed even if he has won much less... anyway Rossi will retire next year... if Dani doesn't win the world championship he will go alongside Lorenzo and cal in HRC…you bet ;-)
...I may be wrong but the nurse will win many races this year too...there are only 4 competing and he is certainly not the weakest...right now I only see Lorenzo as stronger than him...he will certainly be his black beast...I don't think about the others...
Stone me
I agree with 90% of what you say.
Rossi's often disrespectful attitude has always bothered me too, but he was a kid, now he's grown up and I believe/hope that the defeat in Ducati has also taught him to respect others more.
Stoner great handle and blah blah blah... we agree, but I am absolutely not in agreement when you measure Casey's talent by stating that he won "despite" ducati, and this is wrong.
For the stoner style, the ducati and its (ex) super engine was PERFECT.
This is demonstrated by the fact that in Ducati 2007 he did more than in Honda 2011 the year he won the title, the same thing in 2008 when he was just as competitive as in Honda 2012.
If you want, let's open a debate on the riding styles of vale and stoner, to understand why while stoner can go fast with both bikes, vale is limited by ducati.;)
Aeneas
x w_il_sic
I don't agree with what you said
to say that Rossi is no longer what he once was is not fair towards his opponents, to say that Sic's death also affected his performance, I'll tell you more, given that Rossi's involvement in the accident, if that were the case he should have retired from racing
you do something or you don't
the reality is that for 4 years Rossi has found himself racing with strong riders, plus (unlike years ago) he no longer has that special support (sorry Testoner if I use your quote) that was reserved for him.
Rossi served the world championship as an image for the audience, now that Rossi is at the end of his career the motorcycle manufacturers are focusing on young people (Suzuki aside, perhaps Brivio will take stock of the situation)
and then... well... decide!!!!!!!!!!!!!
only until two weeks ago everyone was there talking about the incredible red race (heheheheh apart from me, fat, testoner and mugello)
in short, you are always the same!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the championship has just started, do you already know who will win it?? I do not!!
Rossi isn't finished, he can still have his say, but it won't be as easy as it once was!!!
;-)
1. Rossi has been racing a..."motorcycle for less than 4 years." He stopped in 2010 and only resumed for two races now.
2. You wrote the same thing I wrote above, where I DIDN'T write at all that Rossi is finished (let alone!) But that he is certainly in a declining phase given his age, etc etc etc.
3. So far ANYONE who has raced Ducati, including Stoner and Rossi, but also Melandri etc. he needed the psychologist so no lies. By the way, no one says it but yesterday Dovizioso arrived ANYWAY with a 23 second gap from the top which are the same gaps as Rossi until he committed himself while racing in Ducati...
These are the facts, but if you want to argue at all costs, know that you won't succeed because I have other things to do. I.
:)
…if you don't want to argue, don't enter the forum!!! -))))
@fart
OK, I'll think about it, but don't count on it
hahahahahahaha
one last thing (for now :-) )
stoner going to the psychologist??ahhaha
why wouldn't Rossi have needed it when he was in Ducati??? yesterday the reporters talked about marc comparing him to reds...
it's easy to be nice and smiling when you win, when everything goes well... Rossi's first year in Ducati. To have an interview the reporters had to besiege the motorhome, they took him out of exhaustion and forced him to go out, and if Rossi didn't come out it wasn't certainly because he was analyzing the data with his technicians,,,,,
morals easy to be nice when you win less easy when you have problems...
Cal, for example, is very nice, but look at the faces he makes when he doesn't get the results he thinks are within his reach!!
...all riders don't want to talk when things go badly...the motorbike they ride has little to do with it...yesterday the nurse had a funeral face...I must say that however he always shows his face...even if it's c++ or!!!
However he will win by distance….
Guys, don't dwell on the details, the psychologist and the various jokes were just to joke about. ;)
The point is that Marc seems fast and mean to me as a stoner, but he has this very jovial way of being, which will certainly help him in difficult moments, the opposite of stoner, who suffered more from bad moments precisely because of his introverted personality and grumpy…
I think we can all agree on this... ;)
Aeneas
Yup!
...for everyone to agree (and I never agree with you) we will need to see Marc's behavior when he gets beaten...it's too early to talk now...we'll see from Jerez if he gets behind how he'll take it... I think we will all agree on this ah, ah, ah -)))!!!
we'll see... ^^
Aeneas
I also put my comment because otherwise the body shop/scooter preparer/tyre repairer/mechanic/driver of everything falls into depression and looks for me.
Great race from the 20 year old, there's little to say just look at the race... He arrived as a big favourite, he adapted very well to this track. Good boy!
I thought Pedrosa had a little more.
Lorenzo was very good at maintaining 3rd position, on this track it's like having won, especially from a world championship perspective...
Let's get to Cal (who I like more and more as a driver), if he hadn't screwed up his race with that straight (considering the times he set), I'm totally convinced that he would have been on the podium...
He must improve his match management and not get caught up in the heat, given his potential.
Rossi chapter. I also expected much more from him, around 4/5 place. Very disappointing race.
Dovi did well to bring this bike to the finish line and ahead of all the other Ducatis, he is anxiously awaiting the real GP13.
____
FuoriGiri chapter, I read that it was brought up so I'm talking about it... This year it's really rubbish, I much preferred Bob (I repeat, I'm biased because I've known him for some time)...
Interesting what Pernat said... Namely that Ducati is anticipating the construction times of the real GP13, but this is not always positive... Anyway let's hope that it will be competitive straight away, the more fight there is, the better!!!
Greetings to the scooter builder/drive all/do all.
Hello scooter rider!
…bcs, do you know that I have the opportunity to buy a scooter? I have to choose between X-City and Burgman... what do you recommend?
Hahahaha neither.
Forget about two-wheeled hybrids for those who don't know how to drive... Better a nice bcs (you can have it processed by the all-round builder), or a nice Apecar, but not a scooter...
:)
My proposal is always valid obviously, that is:
Let's get to the choppers!!!! Those tamarri ones that Occ does (a show that I watch with my son these days).
We must become like the one who makes them:
http://img.poptower.com/pic-8166/paul-teutal-sr.jpg?d=1024
…but I'm already like that…just much fatter…ok, go for custom…maybe a fat-boy ah, ah, ah!!!
For advice on scooters, ask the expert, he's the one who has fun with those two-wheeled machines...
I only rode the scooter once because I was forced and on that one occasion I felt quite ashamed...
Useless means!
Marc was good and smart in Texas and did a perfect race as he had already done throughout the test a few weeks ago and for the last weekend.
Marc worked like a true champion, he tried to learn from others how to improve and he didn't allow anyone until Sunday's race to take his lines throughout the lap.
Pedrosa, with the same bike and with more experience, was unable to fix the bike as Marquez did with his team.
But I think it will be difficult to see Marquez dominate another world championship race like this, because here everyone started from scratch or almost from scratch and he was able to do what Stoner did, that is, immediately find the best lines and the best setting.
As far as the Yamahas are concerned, this is certainly not a very favorable track, but I think that the fact that the Yamahas had tested for 2 days in the tests and the Hondas for 3 days and certainly that day also made a bit of a difference. plus something weighed, and perhaps at least Lorenzo with one more day would have been able to stay closer.
Clearly in Texas everyone had to learn from Marqez, who knows if next year Pedrosa, after having done a race with his young teammate, won't be able to battle a little better by copying his lines and adjusting the set up of his bike.
I wouldn't want then racing heads, fat people and co. they said that when it's worth it it comes behind us we hide. Vale is very strong and, despite his age, he will win again. It certainly went faster as a boy in the sense that it made up for a less than perfect bike. Today he needs to feel in perfect harmony with the medium. I also think that Marquez is much stronger than stoner. When judging, we must not forget age. This is what the aforementioned individuals fail to understand. For them even Maradona is poor and it was a bluff wanted by the media as today he runs the 100 meters. in 30 sec.
…well done…the geriatrician is still very strong and will win the races by distance…do autogenic training…you'll see it works!!!
coming to an agreement with oneself is a good thing, when 46 arrives in the first "it is the greatest of all"
when he takes them like yesterday "age and things like that"
His point of reference is Lorenzo and so far he has taken a boatload of seconds both in Losail and Austin, in fact here he was behind a customer motorbike ridden by Cal who hadn't done the tests like him a month ago.
excuses brakes and tires also had them in qualifying??
whoever was truly missing was dead.
ahahahahahahahahaha

I'm not a friend of Pernat, I'm sorry, I know him superficially, we talked sometimes (especially at dinner, because we were often in the same hotel).
Well, my dear scooter rider, I wrote about Rossi (not spoken, Italian is important, don't tell me you're not an expert in this too...).
I have written more about Rossi than about Pedrosa or Marquez..
When he has a race well below expectations and disappointing I write it, when he has a good race I write it.
I try to be objective and not ignore a rider just for cheering, which is something you don't do, dear scooter rider...
What should I do rather than write that he had a very disappointing race? Insulting him like you do?... I don't think it's the case and it's not in these terms that I see my passion for motorcycling (unlike others...)
Elaborate the scooters.
But since you are an expert in mechanics/excellent computer engineer/driver of everything/best coachbuilder on the market etc.. Why did you get your son a nice fifty and develop that for him (I've seen some that are scary)... At least he had a fun little object, and not that silly nonsense called a scooter... At least he enjoys playing with the gearbox and has something to do, instead of making noises with his mouth to simulate a gear shift....
Great scooter rider!!!
MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII (simulation of when you leave with the scooter)
Scooter rider (and others obviously)
Have you seen the 208 that Loeb will use at Pikes Peak?
It has 875 hp, they need a great trainer, send them your credentials…
But it's true!!! It's not a scooter :) (I'm joking obviously, stupid jokes that are made at the bar... But given the way the site looks, it's looking more and more like a bar)...
Anyway guys, what a monster of a car (and what a fantastic race that is at Pikes Peak, sooner or later I want to go and see it... Maybe with my pension, who knows...). You can see it on the Omnicorse website, enjoy!
Sorry for the huge amount of errors in my comment, I do what I can with the means available), I'll rewrite it trying to remedy the errors:

hahahhahahhahha
thanks fatmannnnnnnnnnnn
bcs…..
you fall lower and lower….
:-)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
you're lucky because I sold the tmax otherwise I'd line you up with that too...
but on the other hand I still have the gamma 250...
ahhh, sorry, in my CV I refrained from telling you that I also made racing cars, little things like the 360 Modena and the Ferrari 430, certainly nothing for someone like you...
prrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Me falling lower and lower AHAHAHAH!!!!
You were right to sell the TMAX, better sell the very precious 250 range too.
Great, now you have to add the 208 of the PP. Strength and courage await you!!!! :)
Anyway serious question:
Do you also do restorations? (do it properly though)
TOM TOOOOOOM TOOOOM (me turning on the bcs)
MIIIIIIIIIIIIIII (you who leave with scooters, TMAX and your precious collection of 250s... We don't joke here)
Take the fifty to your son!!!!!
I'm up for it, I'll rent you a nice Tmax at my expense, and I'll bring a serious vehicle (my gsx).
It's back with new graphics (soon the CRF will also have a new look, i.e. CAMEL LIGHT graphics), so with what I spent, better not to scratch it.
I don't want to hand it over to another body shop!
bcs bcs …
when have I ever insulted Rossi???
This question deserves a nice…
A bibo...but bbaffankulo goes!!! hehehe :D
peace and love of course ;)
