MotoGP: Marc Marquez's blog: “I'm getting to know the team”
The weekly appointment with Marc Marquez's blog on the Repsol website resumes
With the official start of the 2013 season, not only testing resumes, but also the Repsol team's weekly blogs. Like last year, this year too Marc Marquez will write his diary on the sponsor's website every Monday ( THU you will find the original in English or Spanish of the new addition to the HRC team), telling us his impressions of the past week.
Hello, happy to see you again!
How did you spend the winter? We are in the midst of a year where I will make my dream come true and I hope that you too look to this 2013 with the best hopes"
As you know, a few weeks ago we revealed this year's bike and I have to admit that coming into the team and having a design change at the same time made me feel very good.
Being at an event like that, together with all the representatives of Honda and Repsol, with some of the fans invited by Repsol itself, with the press… it made me realize once again that my dream is really becoming reality: to be a racer MotoGP and in a team like this. Repsol has always helped me in recent years, and joining the HRC team makes me feel very privileged.
From the trip to Japan I realized how privileged I am. Seeing all the equipment, all the people working so that I have the best bike possible… it's incredible!
Now I have to get to know the technical team better, little by little, and obviously also the bike.
In Sepang I felt good but I still feel that it is the bike that carries me, and that I still don't really control it. We have to keep working and putting in the miles.
On social networks I saw that you really appreciated the photos of Sepang, the ones in the corners where we graze the ground with our elbow... that type of photo! I'm having fun getting to know the bike, but knowing that you too like to see how we ride gives us a lot of strength and the desire to continue working
See you next Monday!
Marc

I still don't really control it.... wow and when you start what will happen??? I knew he was strong.. but in moto2 it seemed to me that he was a bit privileged (repsol and honda man, sole supplier of engines...). simply monstrous and above all humble!!!
Heck, I was a bit skeptical, because of the qualitative and technical leap from Moto2.
The fact is that the boy really seems to have the handle of a great champion, it is obvious that it is still early to make any proclamations, but what he has shown is remarkable.
If he went around to get to know the bike…
However, the best have always come under the aegis of HRC, perhaps the most shabby in the modern era was Criville... who wasn't a pushover anyway!
On other sites I have read statements according to which Marquez tried to use as little electronic intervention as possible, not only to understand the bike, but also to analyze how Stoner rode.
Without wanting to start the usual disputes, I would like this fact to be analysed, that is, in all probability, Stoner introduced a new approach to the motorbike, either by instinct or by practice accumulated over years, but in any case it makes me think that this " experiment” has also been suggested by HRC.
A young driver, with room for improvement, innate and still malleable talent... they could really try, pass me the term, to build the perfect driver, who could draw on many types of practices and experiences in the various circuits to always perform at the top.
I understand that it's a bit science fiction, but at these levels everything counts and I wouldn't be surprised by an approach that also includes an approach of this type.
…I seem to like the word “approach”… I didn't know that!
:-D
andreag… ahahah I like the word support instead!!! heeeh
Hahahaha!! ;-)
@AndreaG
…you look like the screenwriter in “Minority Report” ah, ah, ah…the perfect driver doesn't exist…apart from me on the R1…
Thanks Fatman!!!
Without knowing it you are paying me a big compliment, Minority Report is a story by Philip Dick who is one of my favorite science fiction writers!!
Ahhahaha!!!
I've already said it, given three or four races, I'd almost take a chance even right away, and you'll see how the boy will prove to be another great phenomenon of the real ones and anything but a gimmick!
I support you h!! and when we go on a motorbike ride I'll even push you!!!!!!!!
Hihihi, but you still haven't told me if your "baby" is 1000 or 600, eh eh, what is it, do you want to surprise her?
Of course, 954 needs a chair and a whip to keep it at bay, ah ha ha!
Ah, Sunday in Monza was nice, I didn't think there were so many Turbo ies around, both first and second series and very well maintained.
Hello.
@954r. I reluctantly sold the thousand (I shit myself on the street,,) you choose whether I have to come with the track-prepared 636, or the latest arrival which is the zx6r with ninja trophi kit... you're done for anyway... I'll pass you all inside and I'll even steal your wallet.. like a good Neapolitan!!!ihihih
Ah ah ah, great tester, okay, come on, you choose, but don't cheat with the compound tires and it's that once a friend of mine with the gsx-r750 who was fitted with track tires pissed me off.
When you fall (heehihih!!) I could act as a safety bike with my old and rusty 125 Primavera from '69!!
Could it be of interest?
Maybe by the time you complete a lap you've already sorted everything out and eaten, but it could give a retro touch to the challenge!
Hahahaha, I'm joking, I don't want to cause trouble, so I'll give myself a spin!! :-D
Ok Andrea……. but to be on the safe side, I scratched the balls and the horns three times, with the right hand, I did them too, ihihihi.
Hello.
@andreag. okay come on... I'll come with the special too... that's enough to beat h954 with the zirri engine I have underneath... and then I'm not challenging FATMANFERMO...
don't talk to me about compound tyres... we're talking about the road!!!!!!!!
And then I put on my Fifty Top with the 80!
AHAHAHAHAH!!!
What a show!!
