The world championship arrives on the beautiful and technical track of Laguna Seca, scene of the ninth stage of the 2013 world championship. The new leader Marc Marquez has never ridden on this track with any type of motorbike and will therefore have to try to adapt soon to a circuit whose icon it is the famous corkscrew. For their part, the injured Jorge Lorenzo and Dani Pedrosa will have to be careful, but they will also have to try to bring home as many points as possible.

As for our Valentino Rossi, here he raced one of the races he defined as unforgettable, when in 2008 he managed to win ahead of Casey Stoner (then in Ducati). In reality, that race exhilarated the fans of the Pesaro native, but infuriated those of the Australian, who had been overtaken at the limit at the corkscrew.

From a braking point of view, this is one of the hardest tracks in the world championship. The drivers are with the brake in their "hand" for 24% of the lap time. The braking of the first corner is very difficult and particular, which, in addition to being the most challenging one on the circuit, is also slightly downhill.
