Honda team-mates Marc Marquez and Dani Pedrosa took a break from two wheels at the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg, Austria swapping their Repsol Honda RC213 bikes for the might of a V8-powered Red Bull Racing RB8 as used in the 2012 F1 campaign by Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel.
All this goes in preparation for the MotoGP stop in Germany. The tight Sachsenring is one of the slowest-run races on the calendar, but racing at close quarters makes for a bruising, elbows-out, all action event. The first bike races in the area were held in 1927, on the roads and streets in and around Hohenstein-Ernstthal. By 1990, and with reunification beckoning, street racing was too hazardous to continue. In 1996, the purpose-built Sachsenring was opened near Chemnitz and hosted its first MotoGP race in 1998. Many improvements have taken place since then, including a drastic layout enhancement in 2001. The 2017 event saw Marc Márquez seal victory to kickstart a late-season charge towards the title – will 2018 prove to be as pivotal?

Who should we place in an F1 car next?
-
0:25 that is one expensive chair
-
2:58 Niki Lauda 😭🙏
-
Marc during pitstop, jumps out his car, ass to the floor, to realize there isn’t a spare car.
-
He’s so good at everything that involves an engine
-
The last time a 500cc motorcycle champion rode an F1 and also became a champion on it was John Surtees. Nice to see some MotoGP champs tried this 4-wheel speed beast.
-
Helmut Marko be like: "Yes, Marc can replace Daniil or Pierre soon"
-
Make a F1 formula race between Valatino Rossi Mark Marquez Guy Martin Lewis Hamilton Sebastian Vettel Dani pedrosa Exciting to watch
-

-
2:58 Oh man... Marquez is so blessed. I saw Niki Lauda there. Legend!!
-
Suddenly mark Webber is south African.
-
I would be willing to bet, within just 1 year, Marquez would be a top 5 F1 driver
-
I absolutly like that RedBull goes true such great lenghts for the greater good of sports. They might be a energy drink. But they are an enormous boost for the branch.
-
Imagine...Márquez, Grosjean and magnussen on the track. Survival races.
-
2:57 Oh, no Niki Lauda. You will me missed R.I.P. since 2019
-
f1 fans we need halos and shit to make things safe Motogp: safety yeah.....
-
Is there vice versa? please place F1 drivers on a MotoGP bike too. It must be great.
-
I feel F1 needs to be inclusive like this. F1 is arguably the ultimate in technology, but it appears less so in the quality of its races! MotoGP/WSBK for an example, offer super competitive racing and genuine excitement for the spectators and no doubt the riders!! I am hopeful that F1 will become great again, but it needs to humble itself first.
