Marc Marquez's game-changing tec💯hnique analysed by experts

A technique popularised by 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Marc Marquez has been called out for changing the game in MotoGP.
A young Marquez became well-known for leaning so far over, when turning his motorcycle, that his elbow wo𒀰uld sometimes touch the floor.
It is a method which required immense bravery - but also comes from sound log💛ic.
“It is getting information from the vibration of the front tyre t🔯o his arm,” James Toseland explained for TNT Sports.
“As soon as Marquez reali🐠sed that the elbow, dragging down, got information about what the front tyre was doing, then you can catch the front.
“Only Marc could catch t🍌he front because he was getting information quiꦆcker.
“When ൩other people, with a standard style, lost the front, that elbow didn’t touch the floor until they fell off. It was too late.”
Marc Marquez 'so brave' but it had 'consequences'

C𓂃al Crutchlow add𝕴ed: “I don’t remember anyone saving front-end crashes with just their knee.
“We all tried. You dug it in a few times.
“Marc, and a lot of▨ these guys now, use it for the gauge. Th✅ey lean off the bike so much that they touch the floor.
“When the front end does go, they’ve got another part to be able to save 🔥it.
“Marc made this up.”
Neil Hodgson said: “Marc is so brave that, once he realised he coul🦩d push past the limit and save it on his elbow, he was happy to do that.
“T꧋he consequences are that you get hurt when it💮 goes wrong.
“But this ma🔯n doesn’t care. If it made him faster, he was prepared.”
Marquez, of course, had a series of heavy crashes which caused terrible injuries and almost forced his retirement🐼.
His crash in Aragon in 2020, when 𒊎he rushed back too quickly from injury, is the key regret fr♐om his career.
But Marquez’s brave and innovative style has served him well, and many𝕴 fans re꧅gard him as the best motorcycle racer ever.
He currently tops the MotoGP standings and, if he wins, he will tie Valentino Rossi’s tally for nine worl☂d titles.
