"Marc Marquez did not just test Hondas, he also ended up testing his leathers. The Spaniard lost the front at Turn 10 – aptly named Schwantz corner – the fold wheel folding completely. Arm and shoulder hit the ground, but Marquez had the presence of mind to open the throttle a little. This was just enough to lift the back back onto its wheels, and have both tires grip again. Half-hanging off the bike, Marquez opened the throttle some more, the bike's momentum hauling it upright, and Marquez could pull himself back into the saddle. It is an amazing save, with a fair sprinkling of luck and a massive dose of talent. A brief sequence of the crash caught by a photographer is up on Marquez' Facebook page."
Freaking ridiculous... had the reflexes to open up the throttle just enough to save it and then follow it through.

And, at that point, was being dragged by the bike. So a little bit of yes and a bit of no. I think it is just true racer instinct to try to save things.

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori. Good people drink good beer. Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.
It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level. Everything else is just fluff.

No video that I've heard of.
It was during testing on Monday, so I suspect this sequence is all there is.

mm got lucky and regained front and rear grip at the same time, marco was unlucky and front grip first, causing the bike, and himself to come back into the racing line.
it's cool to see a guy save it, but i cringe evertime because of what happened to super sic.

Sure is it open up the throttle and not counter-steering that front wheel?
