Title: Marc Marquez survives 26G crash on Friday wins on Sunday Post by: paso87 on October 07, 2019, 05:36:17 PM I don't know how this guy does it but Marc Marquez had a huge high side crash during FP1 at Thailand on Friday. Alpine Stars telemetry said his crash generated a 26Gimpact. His Alpine Stars airbag suit deployed and cushioned the crash Marquez had. The bike was destroyed snapping the rear carbon fibre swingarm in half. The rear tire came off the rim. Marquez got the air knocked out of him went to the hospital and was declared fit enough to continue and participated in FP2. He Qualified in third position for the race on Saturday then won the race yesterday and sewed up the MotoGP Championship with four races to go.
If you didn't get a chance to see Ducati's Andrea Dovioso's crash at Siverstone England last month his was rated at 35 G and he was wearing an Alpine Starts air bag suit also. That was an ugly one also. https://www.visordown.com/news/racing/motogp/marc-marquez-suffered-26g-impact-crash%E2%80%A6-then-won-2019-motogp-title |
