Certainly, it seems that Marc Márquez will have learned things from the French riders in MotoGP during this Grand Prix of the Americas in Austin. Friday is next Johann zarco on the track that he understood everything about the qualities of the Yamaha. And on Saturday, it was while watching TV that he discovered that he was not the only one capable of saving the most compromised situations on a motorcycle.

A revelation that made him Loris Baz who had certainly not premeditated such a move to steal the show. But the rescue of the Ducati Avintia in the last corner has passed into posterity, to the point of replacing the figures of Marc Márquez on his Honda in the same kind of feat.

A situation that the Austin pole sitter commented on: “ I'm a little sad now because I was in the lead on the topic of rescue of the year. But that’s no longer the case! It was incredible to watch. I saw it from the box and I was excited as if I had taken pole position. Because this rescue was incredible! »

Incredible but not unique: “ I did almost the same thing during the tests in Brno in 2014. But the figure was not recorded then. Congratulations to him because he now undoubtedly has the best save of the year ". The kind of feat to be consumed in moderation, however!
