Marq Marquez The First Crash

At around 11.45 am I saw Marq Marquez about to enter turn 15 at Sepang Circuit and suddenly he slipped and his bike straight away to gravel and turned up side down but Marq quickly stood up and checked his bike. Unfortunately his bike damaged a bit and i think he escaped unhurt. It was confirmed by Azni Farni from his twitter. After that i heard another crash, this time Dani Pedrosa downed. Marq Marquez has experienced the first crash during the 3rd day of MotoGp First Test.

MotoGp Test 1 Day 2- Ciao Malaysia

Today is another day of Wednesday and it is the second day of Motogp test of 2013. I think most of the riders will improve their time today especially the Repsol Honda and Yamaha Factory raiders. Valentino Rossi is the one to watch and it will be very exciting because I believe he is in good mood with the M1 bike. I hope he will clock the fastest time today after the 6 pm local time finish. Today will very close among the top 4 riders, Pedrosa, Jorge, Marquez and Rossi. The other riders still could not match the power and consistency of Honda and Yamaha factory raiders. Ducati riders still struggling with their machine just like Rossi in the past two season. Nicky Hayden was place 10th yesterday and 2.179 second from top spot and it was a very huge gap. I think ducati need to do a lot of works to improve the bike because Andrea Dovizioso also experienced the same consequences with his bike. Once again all the best to the riders and enjoy your ride. Ride safe.

Stefan Bradl-Wie Ghet's Dir

Stefan Bradl is the uprising German rider and he is the 2012 Motogp Rookie of the year. I first watched this super German rider when he was in moto2, i was so impressed with his performance when he won the moto 2 world championship. I managed to meet him at Sepang Circuit and got some autographs from him. He was very kind and a humble rider. I speak some german words with him and he was not reluctant to reply it in German language. This kind of mentality and his down to earth characters make me feel good. Today once again i managed to speak to him in German words as he replied with his thumb up at his garage. I said to him Wie Ghet's Dir? means how are you. I did not realize that he clocked the best time until i checked my handphone. What  a coincidence. Today during the first test he was 5th best just behind Valentino Rossi (4th spot) and 0.632 second from Dani Pedrosa. I think in the near future Stefan Bradl is capable to ride the Honda Factory racing machine together with Marq Marquez. 

VALENTINO ROSSI WILL BE THE WORLD CHAMPION AGAIN 2013

I was at the paddock of Sepang International Circuit today (5/2/2013) and i can feel very positive about Valentino Rossi chances in this 2013 season. He was faster than all rider before mid-day  but Marq Marquez just pipped him just before noon. All I can see from Valentino Rossi's garage the happiness of all people inside it and as a fan I really impress with the performance of Factory Yamaha M1 bike. I can see Valentino Rossi smiles again. It shows that this is the bike that will help him to climb to top spot again. I hope  Rossi will be the one to beat this season. Mean while Valentino Rossi's rivals such as his team mate Jorge Lorenzo, Dani Pedrosa and the new comer and talented Spanish rider Marq Marquez also perform very well today. After the session finished at 6pm local time these three riders were in the top 3. Rossi was just 0.427 second on the 4th spot from Dani Pedrosa , Jorge second and Marquez third. If I compare the  first test Valentino Rossi with ducati in 2012 he was 1.085 second from top spot and placed 11. I believe that today is very positive and Rossi also stated that after 10 laps it was enough to convince him that the M1 is his bike. We know from the past if  his  bike perform well definitely Rossi will perform well. This will make motogp more exciting and attracts more crowd to come. Until the next post I hope this will be the season Valentino Rossi rejuvenate himself. Good luck VR46 and all the riders.
