MotoGP: Lewis Hamilton also raced at Jerez and he even crashed…

Lewis Hamilton is to Formula 1 what Marc Marquez is at MotoGP. At least with regard to the number of world titles in the premier category of their respective discipline. The two actually have five respectively. The Honda official discovered Formula 1 on the Red Bull Ring. The Mercedes factory driver therefore also got to know the bike on the circuit to continue to support the comparison. It was in Jerez, on a Yamaha R1 with Alex Lowes as coach…   

And guess what happened... Hamilton ended up falling! Bad spirit aside, anyone who excels on a Mercedes F1 is a motorcycle enthusiast. It inspires MV Agusta models and in Jerez he wanted to see what it was like to push a machine to its limits. He saw it as he fell. But the most important thing is that he got up to do it again.

It's here Journal of Sport which reveals some images of this test. We will recall that before him, Michael Schumacher competed in the German Superbike in 2008, with a Honda. The following year, with the same motorcycle, in Cartagena, he suffered a serious accident which convinced him to stop riding. Fernando Alonso also raced on the track on a two-wheeler, and recently at Motegi on a Honda under the eyes of Marc Marquez. Sébastien Loeb is not clumsy behind a handlebar either…
