Marquez is very entertaining to watch. Many riders make non racers think,"yeah, I could do that." But Marc just keeps you thinking,"how in the hell does he do that?"
i cant stand the little spaniard but it ride soooo ! good!
93 will never leave honda and rossi snd mark sepang incident that make me boring......but its ok..
@@tanchokdewan9020 And Rossi couldn't won on an inferior bike. Rossi always had to have one of the best bikes on the grid to win. Stoner won on Ducati. Why couldn't Rossi?
@@Mcali1984 when Rossi joined Yamaha he stayed with them even though they were a far worse team back then.
@@venglomarci why Couldn't rossi win on Ducati? Stoner did.
Does anyone remember when Rossi was riding the Honda he would win with half a lap ahead. So HONDA INSULTED ROSSI BY saying it was the bike that was winning. So he left Honda
This is like some Cesar-level of Confidence.
I hope you know the story when Cesar was captured by Pirates and they demanded a sum for him. Insulted by the low amount they wanted he ordered them to raise it or he will behead them...Long story short they went home without a head after that :)
at time it was fastest bike
And what has rossi to do with it?
@@donpapi373 he drive it lol
Jari Sipilainen no I’m saying why did he bring rossi to the discussion when its all about marquez
He easily could go into retirement after his accident last July, but choose to return, P7 today,good job Marc.
I saw it
7th place with his hurt arm. Insane
bruh, he didnt even passed anyone.. the only reason hes p7 bcuz 3 front of him fall down
@@_VitaminProtein ok bit other pilotos could pasa Jim easly but they couldnt cause he is the best
He easily couldev won le man if he didn't crash but hell b bak.
@@beltruco8908 and came back from like p16 or sum crazy
Good reasons. I'd also include the fact that he is a once in a generation athlete- his reflexes are on another level from most MotoGP riders. He also has a finely tuned training and nutrition program- probably other elements most of us have little insight to. He's a lot of fun to watch and I wish him many more years of championships and good health.
This stuff is obsolete reasoning these days with Marc stuck with a dog motorycle ,,,no saving that Biaaatch
Might be worth mentioning that he also looks like he’s really just out there to have as much fun as possible!
David A he’s a dirty rider
omarveneno IKR
.. and demolish opponents in the process
Be, when you race at that level all fun goes through the window.
@@omarveneno I don't think anyone would be at the top at any sport if you're not "dirty"
Number 7 - "Victory or Gravel" mind set. Perfectioned with the years he won't make maths for winning championships, he will always give his 100% even when the conditions are not the best. This is why he is not only a 8 times world champion but a role model in life. (For me at least)
In his early years he thought lime this, now he's more calculative and maybe he won't win as much as in 2014 but he'll score more points due his regularity. If you look 2019 season, excepting usa, where he crashed, he always finished 1st or second. In 2013 he risked too much and he crashed in some races because he was too young and only was thinking in the races, not the champions. Althought the early mentality provided more show for the fans, the morr mature marquez is more eficient
Wrong, not any longer.
In an interview he said that now he is more calm and calculative in life in general
@@ajove250 in 2013 he crashed in only one race and was disqualified in other for staying one lap extra in flag to flag situation.....
From 2014 onwards he crashed more by winning 10 races in row made him to win more everytime and that's how he wrecked his 2015 season...
From 2016 onwards he was more calculative he pushed when he needed to but will always fight if he thinks he has small room for winning....for me 2016 is his best season ...The bike is shit that year..Honda was losing in acceleration and top speed that year but he never lost his cool...won when he has to and settled for points when he has to.... that's why #MM93 is best for me ever...
@@ajove250 hj
Includes: 1 - He is not afraid, 2 - He is happy riding a motorcycle. Greetings from Spain.
2nd that...He is a Fearless Houdini on clearly the toughest bike to ride in the Motogp paddock and if Marc decided to leave Honda or injuries force him out early Honda will be lapping up Aprillia's exhaust because no one can ride that impossible bike except Marc
I agree. I think the number 1: he is not afraid.
He always pushes beyond the limits and that’s y he crashes a lot whereas most other riders aren’t willing to do that. He is the most exciting rider to watch whether if u like him or not. I’ve always been a fan since he was in moto2
It’s becoming a problem though. Look at his crash with zarco. Pushing is one thing but a rider of his caliber should know the limit at this point. At best he has one fast lap and 2 slow laps because he’s pushing to hard and has to save the bike. At worst he’s far too aggressive and hurts himself or others.
Yes, it's the saves! How many times have you seen him save the bike that had you thinking, 'THAT WAS F#*^NG IMPOSSIBLE!!! I'm convinced he's the greatest race rider of all time
I don't think his saves have given him too many points. What most likely is the case, is that his saves give him a lot of confidence, allowing him to push harder than anyone else.
#1 Reason: *HE IS INSANNNNNNEEE*
AYYY it's Hunter Honda. How you doin, buddy?
You missed the point of the vid
Just not Rossi insane!
He’s an alien
Rossi is
I appreciate all the info. February 06, 2021 will be my first track day. The skills you talk about has helped my confidence. Thanks again!
Amazingly presented mate! That was awesome! Brilliant analysis of true Champion.
There's one main reason above all the stated before: Strong minded and determination...
that's true marquez was near to lose the vision of his left eye once on moto2 and he never stopped driving like a crazy goatt xDDD i think he must be one of the strongest minds in the grid.
And always hungry for victory
@@dantecillo92 A tad of talent helps.
Valentino lost his determination?
@Mally mal that's the difference between someone with so much success in his career and you
success always comes asking for sacrifice, if marquez was not willing to sacrifice then he would become you
I was hyped when he mentioned Danny Pedrosa. I met him in Germany in 2009 in a super random way. He had his trailer pulled over at a rest stop that my family stopped at near Nurburgring (not incredibly close, but there were signs saying it was like 75 km away). I was 13 at the time. He was a really nice guy and we talked for like 10 minutes
Who is this Danny Pedrosa? I remember when i once met Valentine Rosi.

@@inlandbhsk8r yes i know.
This is a great video, you can use the info here for improving your ability in every sphere not just bike racing. I will take a look at the book mentioned - thank you and subscribed.
He's not only a great rider but great athlete too..
and a great person also!
Before I finish watching the video, I want to say that his physique probably plays a big part in his bike control. He probably has faster and better muscle reflexes than most riders, therefore he can react and adjust faster. That's just my opinion.
Very true, he is the only rider able to jump straight to his second bike in pitlane.
Because he train hard outside racing. He got six pack there. His body is similar to bodibuilder who focused on agility. Slim, but fast powerful muscle.
Both arifin And Ian have told the truth
I think he could be a great gimnástic ...or any kind of sportman ....just see ThE way he jumped ThE box fence in Austin. Or ran tiredlessly that same day. If you compare his body with, let,s say, Rossi,s, you can guess the difference.
Besides, Marc seems to have more field to get bette due to his age.
@@ianlanford6922 All MotoGP riders train hard, but I think marc has talent of a ballet dancer.
man! Your videos just keep getting better & better! Looks like you've discovered your niche, combining your passion for motorcycles with solid research and analysis in order to break complex subjects down to easily understandable fundamentals that can interest, entertain and benefit a broader audience.
I see your channel and subs base growing exponentially if you keep heading in this new direction. You just got 1 more. Keep up the great work. Thanks
He is one of the best rider but for me VR46 is still my favourite Moto GP rider
I enjoyed the martial arts comparison. I think a lot of these aspects can and do relate to the kickboxing practice ive had. And this video sure will help me be not only a better motorcyclist but a more well rounded fighter :)
I really enjoyed this one, I think it would be nice for this to become a series on different professional riders and not just in moto gp.
Yeah! Could have videos for a rider in Supermoto, Enduro, MX, WSBK etc.
Mugello is pronounced with a soft ‘G’, as one would pronounce the letter ‘J’.
It’s ‘Mu-Jello’ , not ‘Mu-G-ello’ with a hard ‘G’ as found in ‘grape’ or ‘good’.
Dylan Thornton who really gives a shit? You know what track he is saying don’t you?
keep doing these video mike!! would love your take on the other riders!
Bro, u do great videos, thanks for the quality content
Appreciate the hard work you put in your videos
Keep up the great stuff Mike !
"Always something new to learn!" Words to live by!!!👍
exactly!!!
This is an exceptional video...well done!
getting out of comfort zone and deliberate oractice are keys! great breakdown!
Great video! Congrats! Just one minor thing though, pronunciation is “már.quez”, being strong the “a” and not “mar.quéz”! :)
Sending support from Spain!
Just a tip to focus on - it is his control of the front tire and the ability to slide it. You can look up interviews from Cal Crutchlow. You can also see that in races if you look at the helicopter cam ànd his turn entries - his bike just doesn't turn when leaned during corner entries :) this is rather major and bigger than his rear tire even though it is not as attractive and easy to see
I'd say in order to ride the Honda as a base you need mx and motard skills of bike control (sliding, using rear brake, steering with the rear tire etc) to steer the bike. Skillsets that many road racing riders don't possess. Cal for instance has said that essentially he never learned how to use the rear brake, a skill essential for riding Honda. Lorenzo is also famous for never having used rear brake at Yamaha.
I argue this to people but they hate Marquez so much they don't listen and cut me off lol.
Before the apex he's already sliding front and rear tyres (so its already turned in pre apex instead of after)
He's also dropped the bike sliding and recovered pre apex many times.
He learnt on speedway circle tracks where you slide 90% of the course
Slide control has something to do with it, but if dare say very large and competent engineering team would help, specifically with brake data. Look at interviews from Stoner, Capriossi Crutchlow etc that have all commented about the evolution on GP racing. Either way Marquez is a fricken god to us mortals.
@@nabiji not a god, talented and calculating yes but certainly no god. He has nailed down a formula that works learning from the best and adapting his tactics as he goes, those are his strengths. Stoner was so good in part because of his dirt/rear brake experience and Marquez took that approach. Lorenzo and Pedrosa were smooth through turns and he took that route and appropriated it to his style. But its all in his practice and timing of strategy, he is a master of executing on the fly and he thinks far ahead in the game not unlike in a game of Chess. It is incredibly rare to have all such qualities in one rider and hence why he does well there really is no other rider like him.
@@cr4zyw3ld3r Closest thing to a god
I don't even watch motogp but was looking at some final lap fights from 2019 and came to this video because I noticed the way he rides is so different from other pilots. And yeah the slipping and almost losing his rear (and even front) so frequently was jaw dropping!
Very interesting, refreshing, thought provoking.. thanks , I enjoyed that!
ua-cam.com/video/oR-mROexkoY/v-deo.html
In my opinion, Marc being so dominant, is a combination of many factors, like talent, determination, courage, etc.
But mostly it is hard work he puts into every single one of his training sessions. His strenght, stamina, reflex, coordination are on completly different level comparing to other riders and this allows him to be in full control of his bike. He sets the new standards and does things on his Honda that other riders can only dream about.
There other thing is his attitude towards racing. He his always positive and smiling and he looks like one of the few riders on the MotoGP grid who truly loves what he is doing.
He is very similar, if not the greater athlete, than Lewis Hamilton.
Biker Academy agree with the comparison
Hamilton comparison is way off. Lewis has been sitting in the best car of the grid for most of his career (courtesy of the great work of the Brawn/Schumacher duo) .
@@georgemavrides3434 agreed, you can't say that his bike is the best on the grid when his team mate and other drivers with same bike is way behind.
@@georgemavrides3434 I think maybe he say about old hamilton. Not the current.
Why was Stoner so good? | 6 main reasons
pleeease
Indeed! I think this would be a good vid!
Raw speed and control! Casey stoner god 💯
Nobody adapted better than Casey.
Who else took Ducati to the top ???
No one else could tame Ducati bikes.
Not even Valentino.....a god on bikes too.
Very hard to measure casey because he isnt as dominant as marquez.
Marquez is simply the GOAT. He was so far ahead of the competition when he entered Motogp in 2013, bringing new skills into the sport like sliding into the corners and those extreme lean angles. Now i feel the new generation of riders and the factories have caught up mostly by copying and extensively studying Marquez riding style. Still, in my eyes Marquez will go down as the GOAT. A Revolutionary Rider who changed the game.
This is some great stuff for success in every aspect of life!
He’s always on the edge pushing beyond the limits, that’s what makes him one of the best 🏁
I love your ending quote btw. "Theres always something new to learn" 💪
Me too!!!!
Awesome analysis, I've done both mx and sport bikes... crazy how things have changed over the last 25 yrs.
Exceptional video. Bravo!
Also his will to win is incredible.... coming back from horrific eye injury... winning from back of grid in 125 and moto2.... iam not his biggest fan but He's a proper beast on track.
I've always attributed his success to his mental determination. His body might not be able to go as hard as before but it's down to the mentality. You can heal your body but Marc benefits from the fact that he has always had a strong mindset and no crash or injury has been able to hinder his strong mentality
Thank you for these video.awesome!
Rossi when he first met Marc, "So you are the brave Marc.." he heard of him, and knew his potential.
It will probably be few years still, until Marc found someone to overthrow him. As for now, I'll enjoy seeing him slaughtering records.
i think it's not a few years anymore. Because there is a 16 old year rider name pedro acosta who win 2 series in moto 3 2021 as a rookie
U got jorge martin, he is a worthy opponent
@@jumpkex9449 🤨🤦🤦🤦. Fabio is the most talented rider on the grid presently ( after Marc Marquez obviously) . All these Martin, Miguel , enea are one day wonders not championship material. Pecco is somewhat a better competitor to Fabio and Marc
And body parts 🤭
Great video. 👍 I'm no fan of a Marquez but there's no denying it, if someone is going to beat him he's going to have go to a level beyond where nobody even imagined Marquez could be right now.
Well a great starting point would be a bike that works at most tracks in most weather and temperature conditions, like the Honda.
@@JackFN_VR64 Only problem with that, is the Honda only works in most conditions, at most tracks, at most temps, for Marquez lol
@@JackFN_VR64 Then why the f did Jorge Lorenzo failed
@@damebanlamranee7860 he gave up
@RC213V You say Honda is the dominant bike, then why isnt that you are not able to see other Honda riders on the podium consistently?
I remember a race years ago before he got to the top class. He had to start from the pit lane and still won! Thought I'd better look out for him then!
He didnt get podiom
@@senpaiotoka8663 i think he's talking about the one when marquez is still in moto2. It's pretty crazy you can look itu up on youtube

Brad binder aswell..
that was germany in 2014 I think
His falls and injuries is due to being in competition with himself.
Watching this after his amazing save. Too bad he slipped later in the race but amazing nonetheless.
4:28 Forget knee dragging...he’s ELBOW DRAGGING!
I haven't watched a single gp race in the past ten years but you know what?
I remember seeing about 20 second clip of Marc's riding when he was only two time world champion and thought to myself, this guy is the best ever.
Go figure
Great video as always!

6:45 This is for me the most important skill of Marc. You can see it so clearly now that he didnt race this year. The other riders are riding so much smoother compared to Marc; especially going into the corner.
Excellent tube!
Can’t wait for his return to see how long it takes him to to get back to the top of his game.
1st time watching sumtin like this and really enjoyed it ! Simple enough for a novice like me to enjoy and understand
It's phenomenal this young Márquez 👌
All those good things you said I believe are true. I also believe even this year (2021) when recovering from injuries he is one of the most dangerous riders in the field. Fearless when the risk is only to yourself is admirable but his fearlessness more than occasionally put the other riders at risk.
He probably will end up being the rider with the most wins but he also may be viewed as a rider that risked other riders safety to get there.
ua-cam.com/video/oR-mROexkoY/v-deo.html
This is why I love Marquez, he goes to the extreme to find the limit and he is always entertaining to watch. In all those races where he was not in MotoGP after his accident it was just boring to watch, he is just something else that puts me on the edge of my seat every time I see him riding. I hope he is going to get a good bike soon and win many more championships.
Nice you mentioned Dani Pedrosa, i belive that having a Team Mate like Dani helps a lot to get better.
First time i heard his name was back in 2010, when i saw clips from the 125cc that year. Then after he moved to Moto2 in 2011, i started look closer after his progress, and in that first year in Moto2, he already fought for the championship, just unfortunate with his injury at the end of the season. Then i say, ok this guy has something special. I was excited when he was announced that he'll be riding for Repsol Honda in 2013. And the rest know the history. And it's unfortunate that he broke his arm early on the season, which excluded him out of the championship. Now we're seeing the younger Marquez starting to prove his worth in MotoGP
Congrats Mike for hitting a hundred, My name is Mike too, Ride Safe bruh
Michael&Jacky RACING TV bruh
Between 1978 and 1993, six different American road racers traveled abroad to race in the 500 cc grand prix. In that span of fifteen years, these six riders won thirteen 500cc championships. Kenny Roberts, Freddy Spencer, Eddie Lawson, Wayne Rainey and Kevin Schwantz all shared the skill of "flat tracking", where groups of riders race at 140 mph on dirt tracks with jumps, left and right turns. Kenny Roberts Jr. won the 500cc championship in 2000 and Nicky Hayden was the last American flat tracker/500cc Grand Prix champion. (RIP)
thank you for sharing!
0:30 Nice touch med flaggan.
1) His ability to rotate the bike at full lean.
2 His ability to induce extreme lean.
3) His ability to take controlled risk to find limits, i.e. he is willing to crash in a controlled manor.
4) The elbow save.
"manner" . the presence of mine to use his knowledge and uderstanding of bike characteristics to pick back up the front of the bike byopening the throttle after the front has folded
Exactly. He understands that lean is what turns the bike and that it's the bike's lean that influences the cornering the most, not the rider's.
2. Is probably because he's short.
Because 93 got Autonomous Bike and #99 didn't to kept IT secret.
always something to learn !
Well done video !
Excellent analysis and video. Marc Marquez is the most complete competitive rider I've seen in my 50+ years in motorcycling. Like you said- he's aggressive but smooth, has phenomenal feel for the bike, uses a calculated racing strategy, and was never intimidated (even by Rossi). Probably the motoGP G.O.A.T. But like all the greats, someone will eventually dethrone him.
Ojalá alguien logre superarlo en un futuro, el problema es que este deporte apenas tiene unas décadas, y es difícil ver a largo plazo que alguien supere esos logros. Pienso que el mundo se acabará antes de verlo
top 7. he train his body, another riders look so soft
^ That can’t be said enough. They’re using their entire body to ride. The greater the core strength and endurance the less work their body will do in a race.
I don't know about this, he looks a little more ripped than some others, but all of these guys are fit as shit, I think it comes down to body types more than actual training
@@elken4289 Right, Dovi is ripped, but he has one of the more stiff riding style
@@yunan9610 I would NOT want to mess with Dovi or Crutchlow! Hahaha.
@@yunan9610 agree. Dovi,marq,vinales even cal are ripped as fck. But it comes down how their riding style to their bike
That was very cool video, thank you
When I view these I try to learn. i do not get hung up on personalities or people. I watch the style of riding, but, the BEST teacher is tailing someone and learning the grooves and finer points of braking, trail braking and acceleration points out of the corners. Everyone is fast in a straightaway, but, the race is won in the curves. I know at my age I cannot attain this level and therefore I ride within my abilities. The KEY is knowing the difference. Younger riders recoiver better than older riders and older riders take more time to heal. That and it seems to hurt a lot more after 40 than it did @ 20.
I think for me Marquez is really Fearless Rider in the track, watch the interview when hes talking about Real rider that is ready for the race, hes talking about being fearless, admit it fear of crashing slows a rider , He even told that he dont need comfortable bike , but he need the fastest one... look at valley he slows down this last season, in an interview he mention about crashing, because of loosing traction, that hes not that comfortable in the bike, like come on. . . we all have natural instinct to be safe in riding, but MotoGP is Racing.... the faster the better., fastest and its bad ass great... marquez even fight the crash itself by keeping the trottle and his balance sometimes and that is hes fearless mind setting that what im trying to mention, sorry for my english
You do realize they lap within half a second do you?
I too believe he's so good because he's fearless. Look at lorenzo, once he got badly injured it scared him and he could not push any more and when he would try and push - he would fear injury and then crash again.
@@Runyamouth once he'll switch the bike we'll see how fearfull he'll become for lorenzo coming to honda was a bad decision he's a smooth rider...and the bike is developed for marc and now totally transformed for him power delivery is not linear at all and marc is naturally aggressive on throttle... Try to do that on another nike i wish him luck not to crash🤷
@Count Olaf I. agree with you bro, that’s what I’m talking about. Thanks
@@abdulhameedmohammed2614 i agree with you, lorenzo style doesn't fit with Honda at all, its a tough bike for a smooth rider it made for MM, in 2018 since winning in Mugello GP till Misano he collected points more than MM, he was hard opponent for MM since he found his confident with the bike, unfortuntaley he destroyed his career with Honda, if he kept with Ducati guess he can take the title
I miss watchng MotoGP..... I hope some of the season can be salvaged.
Me too!!! July hopefully we get the Jerez race.
Mee and my family too..🤨..huh..covid19..
Great video. Where do you normally get MotoGP coverage and past footage?

“Makes it harder to turn in, but helps it go almost keep up with Ducati on the straights”
Sacrificing handling to almost keep up? How good would he be on a Ducati then?
Damn straight what I wanted to ask.... Slap on some front side weights and watch him powerslide across every corner
Plz make a video on what makes Valentino rossi soo good.. and one on a rookie fabio as well he has similar riding style to jl99
nah.. MV12 is more similar to JL99 but JL99 far superior
FQ20 is more like MM93 on a yamaha to me
@@leeallbluem1 no technical aspects fabio has so much similar riding style to lorenzo their telemetry is quite same... Mv12 has a very unique riding style its called point and shoot style this style is very suitable for ducatis so they were interested in signing him this season.. mv is not as smooth as Lorenzo on throttle
Winning against poor opposition and overnight cooked up tyres that no one else on the grid got, there are two reasons
@WARRIOR FIGHTER PAHLAWAN Ahahah 9 titles 115 victories, 234 podiums, Shut up child
Please DON'T talk about A-hole Rossi
I would say it would be better if you included more riding clips (specific race and season) as examples under each part . Overall the video is well designed!
Mike do a video on explaining how quartararo's braking technique work, because it is so unique from what i saw
The more I watch MotoGP the more I realize it's more of a team sport than an individual sport. And my questions aren't why is so-and-so so good? It's, what chemistry is going on with the entire team?
Yes, behind a great rider is a formidable team just as a triumphant knight with a remarkable horse and the sharpest scabbard.
Man I love watching dovizioso and Marquez in those last lap showdowns
Me too!!!!
Wow such skill and mind control Simply Impressive
can you please do a video analysing how marc is riding post 2020 - Jerez injury? And why he still manages to be so fast on underdeveloped bike with himself not 100% but keeping his streak at sachsenring & almost winning in austria (curse the weather) ?
He is a smart rider and that’s one of his greatest skill. He knows how to have more advantage, focus on things others doesn’t even think of, and use his natural abilities to become even more powerful. His physique is one of them. Every rider train hard. But it’s the type of training not just how much and how hard. He stated before (in either interview or his documentary) he didn’t focused himself to be stronger in training. But focused more on agility and flexibility. Which is why he can get back up and ride the bike again even after a big crash and most times he hurt less than he should’ve been. Smart moves imo cause that is such an advantage compared to his rivals. I rarely heard riders talk about building their flexibility before marc. His trainer said this is exactly why he made crashed looked “easy”. He crashed a lot even way before motogp, and had one of the biggest crash in his career in moto2. And maybe this fact lead him to a different set of training which now become a huge advantage for him.
And he’s not scared of it somehow. Even when he was a little kid, there was a footage of him crashing, the older people were running to help him and worried, he didn’t even blink twice and get back on the bike continue to race.
And he listens! People close to him, like his dad, said this is one of the reason why he is who he is rn. He listened to everyone else stories, achievements, problems, inputs, even critics and analyze them and use them as a learning point for himself. Once I heard this I became kinda obsessed watching him in press conference. You’ll notice he is one of the only rider who seems interested in what his rivals have to say and always listening.
He also listens to the bike. He seemed like he tried to fit in to what the bike wanted (like in 2016) instead of asking for the bike to behave the way he need. While wait & consult the team to help fix the bike to his preference.
Good observations. I notice how well he dismounts when he crashes. Rarely injured.
Gotta add one more. He is having fun. Like a kid immersed in their favorite hobby and its useless for the parents to pry the kid away.
I feel good watching moto grand prix like it is satisfying to watch
Hes excellent, very talented, could possibly go down as one of the best riders ever! Does help having a privileged upbringing, not have to worry to much about paying bills, had access to motorbikes all his life, well done sir 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
He's so good because I taught him everything he knows 👌
Ok
👏👏👏👏
I'm a Rossi fan eversince ... but that doesn't change the fact that Marc is the fastest MOTOGP RIDER I've EVER SEEN.
No doubt he's fast ...fast coz of bike he have....If rossi get that honda under his ass he will be still way ahead of this young gun for sure at the age of 41
@@gamerflyingfish3487 i'm a fan of rossi too, but in the actual condition, Marquez Will beat rossi with almost all bikes. It would be sweat to see marq vs rossi in his prime
Federico Resta Rossi would win as Rossi would be more consistent. MM would crash too much. So I think MM would win more in the season but his crashing would make Rossi win the championship
last season he crashed only 1 race, rossi more tho
Flying fish Gaming lol, keep dreaming boomer
It is a good reader and his read books on bicycle racing.
Yea that true there's some really good books on bicycle racing that has a lot of explanation of why is doing what he is doing he has a capable mind to be focus.
He been very lucky in his path to where he is and with his education on racing.
Simply today he is the best motorcycle racer that there is and there are four other ones that are coming up.
We'll see how you those next year after taking one year off that can really throw you for a loop.
The next closest for is downhill ski racing where you've got to be in at 100% or you're a trouble.
That's my take im an ex pro skier
Thats been on bikes of all kinds.
Dirt bikers can slide .
Great Video !
He came from another planet.
The planet of the greatest!
Planet of Cervera XD
I reckon it's because he has the perfect height , weight and strength ratio. His legs are perfect levers for the Honda RCV2113V, his arms are the same, in essence his fulcrums are perfect . His age also helps..he is fearless and totally believes in his abilities.
Awesome video. Marquez is an alien riding a motorbike.
brilliant video
I personally see him as a rider that is always learning and want to improve..
plus, he has an insane winning mentality..
he clearly makes other riders in the motoGP look 30-40% less of a threat..
but the way he rides makes me worry that he might not be able to break or set new records due to injuries or worse..
8:40 just to say that the man has titanium balls and he trusts his skills and safety equipment.
From my experience, MotoGP races are rare on American tv. When i see that a race us on, i set it to record and i try to watch it live. With that said, i dont know much about the individual riders except for the most popular ones like Marquez and Rossi. With my limited knowledge, i like Marquez. He seems to be more humble than Rossi. Id like it if i were able to watch their entire season every year. That way i could get into the lesser known riders and cheer for them. I've never been a "mainstream" fan of sports. By that i mean, i like to get excited for the "underdog".
Everyone overlooks the bike he inherited from Casey Stoner, who had a riding style which is comparative to Mark’s. This allowed him to ‘hit the ground running’ in 2013 as the bike was already set up/developed pretty well by someone whose riding style was compatible with his own, allowing his confidence to grow from day one.
