Perhaps motorcycle sports fans have been too spoiled lately with the magnificent live streaming presentations of the Yamaha, Ducati and Suzuki teams, but in comparison Honda's seemed very modest, with a 44-second video filmed with a phone and interviews and photos published hours after the event.
“Honda should light a candle to keep Marquez for his entire career, estimated Carlo Pernat, because he is the one who saves their furniture every year ". For this presentation, we had somewhat the same point of view in terms of communication about Repsol, which in the past has offered us presentations a little more worthy of the so-called queen category.
Anyway – and isn’t that the most important thing? – Marc Marquez was happy: “I have already been to Indonesia several times, and I know how much they love MotoGP. Yet they are still able to make me feel even more welcome than last time, which is amazing! It was also very interesting and nice to visit the factory yesterday because I love motorcycles and I really enjoyed seeing how they were “born” and meeting the people behind it all. They were incredibly supportive and passionate. We will do our best to give them a reason to celebrate. We started our winter testing quite well, and now we all have to keep working and fighting at the top again.”
Dani Pedrosa could also not hide his delight: “Today we officially kicked off our 2017 season, which is always an exciting moment, even if you've experienced it many times before. I feel good and I'm really looking forward to the new season. I'm also happy that we came here for our team launch. Last October, I was unable to attend this event due to injury, but so many people from Indonesia showed me their support. Yesterday's visit to the Astra Honda factory was also amazing. More than 2 people applauded and greeted us.”
