Marc Marquez MotoGP World Champion 2016 Motegi Honda Repsol – Marc Marquez in Japan he became World Champion for the fifth time in his career, writing his name in the MotoGP roll of honor for the third time. The Spaniard, champion in 125 in 2010, in Moto2 in 2012 and in MotoGP in 2013, 2014 and this year, returns ahead of everyone again at Motegi, the track where he celebrated his last title in 2014 too. At just 23 years old, his numbers are truly phenomenal!. Double celebration also for Honda which celebrates the title in Japan on its own track.

This time, however, the world championship was less dominated by the Spaniard, who instead annihilated the competition 2 years ago with an overwhelming start, where he lined up 11 consecutive successes, this year however the world championship arrived 3 races early, but after having won only 5 races, the Austin GP, ​​the Argentine GP, the German Grand Prix, the Aragon GP and this one in Japan. This title was the result of regularity, Marquez in fact always scored in the points, and also in 15 races he finished in the top 10 3 times. In short, a year spent on the podium for him, unlike his rivals in the standings, Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo who instead had a much more irregular season.

And to think that in the winter tests the Yamaha seemed to be the bike that best adapted to the two big innovations of this year, the unique electronics and the Michelin tyres, the Hondas were constantly in difficulty, but as soon as in Qatar they started to work on the seriously Marquez immediately made things clear by taking the lead of the standings after just a few races and winning his 5th MotoGP title today.

In short, a season that began with boos on the podium in Qatar and Argentina, protests due to the frantic finale of the 2015 season, slowly turned into a triumphal march for him until today's seal in Motegi...chapeau!

    He won the strongest, well-deserved title and perhaps the best of his world championships for how he built it by riding like a phenomenon, especially in moments when all the Hondas were floundering.
    Bravo!

      In my opinion the best one was the 2013 debut.

    2. deljde said:

      at 23 years old 5 titles, a true phenomenon!!

    3. deljde said:

      at 23 years old 5 titles, and not against Ukawa and Gibernau..

  • supermariacion said:

    Congratulations to the new world champion. Well deserved title!

  • Marquinho said:

    A well deserved World Championship with a decidedly inferior bike at the start of the season.
    Great Marc!

  • whose said:

    it was the most constant, congratulations

  • VDS said:

    The strongest won, great Marc!

  • nandop6 said:

    I add my compliments. Well-deserved World Cup.

  • deljde said:

    Of course since they entrusted the development to the developer megatester with the second in the wrist
    the Yamaha goes faster and faster... on the scree!!

    1. nandop6 said:

      That was the 2013 Yamaha.

    2. nandop6 said:

      Or the 2011 Yamaha, the one that had to revert to the 2010 chassis.

    3. deljde said:

      Yamaha hasn't won for three months, the development of the wizard from Tavullia is truly incisive, after all we had already weighed up the yellow genius in Borgo Panigale...

  • whose said:

    That the 2016 bike was developed only by Rossi is truly idiotic to think and even more so to say.....

  • whose said:

    In moderation, I put the magic words…

    That the 2016 bike was developed only by Rossi is truly idi0ti to think and even more so to say….

    1. deljde said:

      Even the walls know that after Barcelona, ​​development has been directed since 46...
      yours, on the other hand, are just freewheeling nonsense as well as insults that qualify you once again...

      1. nandop6 said:

        Luckily, those who shoot shit are Rossi's fans. A book should be written.
        VDS are you there?

      2. VDS said:

        I'm Nando, but if you expect to read happy comments from me, you're wrong.
        I never enjoy it when a rider crashes, I would have preferred to see a wheel-to-wheel battle, but I'm happy with Marc's victory because I think he is the strongest rider and this year he has given further proof of this by riding with his hands and with his head.
        Rossi tried, but he fell and falls are mistakes, and it's not the first time this year, so I think there are no doubts about Marquez's well-deserved world championship.
        Now let's see if he will compliment Marc, so far he hasn't done so, maybe once his anger is over he will, it would be a nice gesture, vice versa it would be a terrible impression.

        VDS
        My speech was aimed at you because normally you criticize what Rossi's fans say but what the fans of the current rider fighting against Rossi, also known as anti-Rossists, say, you don't say anything, it was just that.
        Today everyone woke up, as if before the race they were afraid that Marc would not win this world championship. Then I read their comments and they have the courage to say that we gnaw. Meh!!!!!

      4. nandop6 said:

        On GPone
        Is his title a deserved one?
        “Yes, because Marquez was not only the most consistent rider but also very fast and won many races”.

      5. VDS said:

        @nando
        I don't criticize Rossi's fans, with you for example, even if we think differently I think we can communicate and I have never addressed you with offensive phrases or words.
        I criticize those who insult those who... allow themselves not to support Valentino.
        Whatever the discussion on this blog, the group of fanatics always uses the same offensive tone, and I have never tolerated these behaviors.
        For the rest, I have my say, you can disagree but we should always discuss things in a civil manner, and you shouldn't be surprised if you then respond to the Taliban with their own language!

      6. nandop6 said:

        The problem isn't not supporting Valentino, the problem is supporting the rider on duty who fights against Rossi to give Rossi a thumbs up, which could also be there given the antipathy they have towards him but at least they wrote sensible things.

  • VDS said:

    Go ahead, the Taliban are starting... first offense!!

    1. deljde said:

      Well! you have to understand them, given the poleman, king of psychological pressure on the scree always has a certain effect... like euchessina..

    2. deljde said:

      Insult is in their DNA, they are all like that, but what to expect from the scum who rejoice at riders' crashes and boo them under the podium...

    3. whose said:

      How cute you are, you would make a really nice couple....

    4. deljde said:

      I would like to point out one thing though: at 37 years old the red is still there…. Getting slapped!!
      Ahahahahahahahahab

  • whose said:

    Because Lorenzo hasn't tried the swingarm and other components too...

    It's you Vaidisolta, read this individual's comment on the other "post"... Fuckheads@

  • TONYKART said:

    Objective to win the world championship failed
    The objective of postponing Marquez's world championship failed
    Now the objective is missing to get ahead of Lorenzo, if that too fails with a Yamaha all on his side, it's better for him to retire...

  • deljde said:

    Now, as an excuse for losing this world championship, it's coming out that it's the tires' fault.
    After the "guilt" it will come out that Marquez won it "thanks" to the tires.
    It may seem the same thing but it's not!
    Because in the end in a few days it will be that Michelin has given Marquez the advantage, erasing in one fell swoop the seconds gained by Rossi between Saturday and Sunday...

    1. fatman said:

      ...don't be rude, they're already eating a huge plate of shit and you want to add more? And now we wait for the apologies of bestlapirla and that unclean being of the fisherman...

      1. deljde said:

        I saw Marquez celebrate at the finish line kicking..
        these not only tear him to pieces on the track despite the help but they also beat him.
        for me Rossi has definitely finished completely here...
        he knows it too...
        when it comes to really shooting he has shown that he goes to the ground or he doesn't make it..
        We have another 2 fun years ahead of us I think..

      2. fatman said:

        ...let's tell the truth: lamerdino is a poor buffoon kept in the game by the fact that he brings some money with the hats that the fisherman buys...Marc is right to take him for a ride...what a beautiful moment...I enjoy it!!!

      3. deljde said:

        Rossi is ultra-rubberised, but so firm now that it isn't enough for him, so sometimes he even has to leave his comfort zone and plan himself.

      4. deljde said:

        Lamentino, how many times have you fallen this year??

  • fatman said:

    …some tavulliaboys will die of anger…I enjoy!!!

  • TONYKART said:

    Today was a great day for true motor enthusiasts, a great man won a world championship alternating during the season rational races with races run as if there was no tomorrow, it's impossible not to love him
    He won without tricks, without a superior bike
    The times of Valentino Rossi feat Carmelo Ezpeleta and their little theater are over, the curtain closed
    Now we're racing for real

  • nandop6 said:

    Luckily, those who shoot shit are Rossi's fans. A book should be written.
    VDS are you there?

  • supermariacion said:

    Delirious you always mention Ukawa and Gibernau...Biaggi, no????

    1. deljde said:

      supermaracone, of course also Biaggi, I also forgot to point out that ALL these riders have always fought with the divine in FAR INFERIOR technical conditions!!!
      they were ALWAYS mocked, insulted and taken for a ride by people like you...

    2. deljde said:

      today your idol acts out in front of the microphones while the others slap him on the track despite the favoritism...
      Then they celebrate by kicking…
      Who knows if anyone at Yamaha is rethinking the causes of Jorge's collapse after Mugiallo.

  • nandop6 said:

    Ahahahahahahahaha
    What a mess you are.

  • supermariacion said:

    Buhahahahahhahah delirium take the drops

    1. deljde said:

      supermaracone, massive dose of maalox or preparation H?
      it will burn a little but then it will pass!!
      ahahahahahahahahahahahaahha

  • The Fastest Fisherman in the World said:

    Well done 93.
    Did you see how he took Giorgina for a ride, imitating her jump on the podium?

    1. deljde said:

      I saw Marquez celebrating at the finish line by kicking...
      that it was to perculate the yellow :)))))

      1. fatman said:

        …ahahahahahah, don't listen to the fisherman, when he is busy eating his own liver he is intractable and sees whistles after flasks… I would kick him, a bit like Lamerdino did with the great Marc ahahahahahahahahahahahahahah…

      2. deljde said:

        With this we hope that Rossi gets off his chest and we never hear about him again.
        In addition to his shameful and unsportsmanlike behavior last year, for too long we have had to listen to his complaints about alleged biscuits from those who competed without looking anyone in the face.
        As I have already said, a mediocre motorcyclist, zero as a sportsman, a nothing as a man, a great tax evader.

      3. fatman said:

        ...you said it right, nothingness as a man...a bit like many in here...

  • supermariacion said:

    Buabahhahahahhahahahahahha double dose of drops!!

      supermaricon … today sitting with the donut …
