He had another high speed off in the race. Amazing rider, just needs to stay on the bike more.

I'm sure we will see Marquez on his head a number of times before this season is over. Just a hunch, eh?

This was not even close to 200 mph. What I don't get is what caused him to get on the grass like that? Forgot to straighten the bike in time?

Don't have FB...... it's the devil :down:

I was reading about that in an article in MCN about MotoGP bikes being too fast. Because of the speed he was carrying, his tires were actually airborne when he blew by the braking points. By the time the front wheel was down it was too late to brake. Crazy stuff.

^^^ Blasphemy I say!!!

There is no such thing as too fast...

I never really understood wat ppl meant by the term someone got lucky wen they crashed. IDN maybe its jus me but if I crashed and lived or died the last thing I wud feel is lucky...

Well considering how frail and squishy us human beings are anytime you can walk away from a 200mph crash with your life let alone all your appendages in tact I would consider that person a tad bit lucky...

Anybody care to guess the number of times since this incident he got off his bike? As the current MotoGP leader it's been twice.


So much for hunches....
