He da Man.

what's so cool about a wrong wheel wheelie with the front tire pointed right while you're turning left not even dragging knee? such noob.

I think it was the first race of the season where he was in the lead by a wide margin and coming around the last turn did this and almost crashed.

Is this a picture of that event?

 

[Shaggy]

Isn't that just a still frame from his near crash in the last turn of R2 at COTA?

That's what I was trying to say, but you did it a lot better. Thank you.

Now if he just got off the honda I might like him. But such a epic rider.

 

[280SQUAGGLER]

Great now everyone is going to be trying to do this on the track!!!!

 

[augustiron]

I can do that






(stopping from 5mph though, not 150mph M4M)

I guess you may have read this already, still:

Like most observers, Márquez’s Bridgestone technician Klaus Nӧhles – himself a former 250 GP rider of some note – can’t stop grinning when he’s talking about Márquez’s on-track antics.

motogp race Marc Márquez: Hes playing

“Marc adapted his riding pretty quickly to the character of our tyres,” says Nöhles, who scored two top-five finishes during the 2000 250 GP season. “He is super-confident on the bike – to me it looks like he’s playing. Sometimes he pushes for a few corners, playing with the limit and learning things.”

It’s all very well lifting the rear as you tip into a corner, it’s dealing with the consequences of what happens next that takes real talent. You will notice that whenever Márquez drops the rear tyre back onto the track, the bike shudders and the front tyre momentarily tucks under as both wheels try to get themselves aligned (I don’t know about you, but this exact moment always makes my stomach do a somersault or two).

Guy is such a great rider I can't figure out why I hate him?


Meh, even Pedrosa grew on me so I'll give him a year or two.

 

[tankerman]

I'd be happy with just a fraction of that mans talent.

 

[Blankpage]

Too bad we didn't get to see him race against Stoner

 

[ALANRIDER7]

He's just doing his Mat Mladin imitation.

 

[HeatXfer]

It is easy, for him.

I think this will go down as one of the biggest disappointments in Moto GP history. Those 2 battling on the same bike would have been amazing to watch. Can you imagine what they would be doing if they were each pushing each other to the absolute limits, and sometimes over.

As much as I am in awe of stoner....I'm farther in awe of Marc Marquez.

MM has a much wider training experience in his dirt skills, that pay off, on pavement.
