LAGUNA SECA 2019 | INDIANAPOLIS 500 2023 (📷: Barry Cantrell)

[repsolhonda]

Recently started watching motopg (I've become a huge marc fan). I wanted to watch some of the old races, and sooo... which races do u think are the most iconic/ which ones are entertaining to watch (no pressure, u don't have to answer this ask<3)

HIII welcome to motogp 🥳🥳🥳 okay so i’m terrible remembering old races so if you want something older than 2013 (i rewatch 2013-2019 races A LOT during marc’s injured days so they’re like branded in my brain) i would invite other mutuals to reblog this with their recs. OKAY SO LETS GO

1. assen 2018 aka everyone’s favorite race. THIS is the race everyone and their mothers will name drop when people from other motorsports start coming for motogp okay… i’ve converted 3 people into this sport from that race alone 🙂‍↔️🙂‍↔️

2. any phillip island races are instant classics sooo you can pick any of them no matter the year (shout out to 2015 and 2017 personally)

okay now moving forward to marc centric races bc i am a marc fan first and foremost sooo:

sachsenring 2016 brno 2017 and san marino 2017 for introduction to mixed condition specialist marc marquez <3

silverstone 2013 mugello 2016 austria 2018 bc i love good old marquenzo duels <3

if u want to see recent good ol marc comeback races assen 2021 and cota 2022... p20 to p7 and p24 to p6.... in THAT honda.... everyone pls bow down.....

aragon 2021 is also fun i love a good honda marc duel with ducati.... sachsenring 2017 or '18 (?) duel with folger is also fun.....

i think some motegi ('17? '16?) and aragon '18? were fun too.... okay my brain blanks out i forget all races now pls i need my mutuals to intervene sorry KJSKSJHSJKS i have memory of a goldfish….

Relatively sober/not very drunk Valentino having to take care of smashed Marc — is he annoyed, is he amused, is he suffering trying to refute the advances Marc is making on him, is he taking care of him or is he dumping him at his hotel/motorhome home and finito (options endless)

IT DEPENDS WHAT YEARRRRRR.... i think. 2013 post laguna seca (when they were partying TOGETHER. marc pulled one over on vale and vale brought him to a PARTY. INSANITY.) marc is 20 years old and not even allowed to drink legally in the united states so vale along with my friend cal crutchlow keep sneaking him drinks "secretly" as a flirtgame (no one would care lol) that vale doesnt even realize hes PLAYING until marc is smashed and HE is smashed (more than hes been in a LONG time at a postrace shindig), and his weird horny responsibility complex comes into play... he ducks out of the party to maneuver marc to his hotel room... marc drunkflushed all red in the FACE, just shook ass earnestly for like four hours, caught between cal and vale and like. hitting them both in the arm when he laughs like the LAMEST flirting of all time.... also he won. while doing a vale move. that vale then defended to the press. girl he is trying to get into vale's pants like it is the end of the WORLD and yknow what. i think it works ! i think vale is INTO it

and then. mid 2019. a little bit of a détente. still #tense and #nasty and #evil but edging just a bit more on friendly. they can laugh without it feeling like a knife between their ribs. and theyre at some stupid sponsor thing dont ask me whattttttt okay maybe the silverstone 70th suit celebration extravaganza. and vale is NOT hanging out with MAVERICK. and theyre both BORED. and vale thinks up some dumb quip that he knowssss marc would laugh at because marc laughs at everythingggggg, and hes just tipsy enough to nudge an elbow into the side of marc's tux and let it fly... let the warmth of marc's generous little look fill him up. and suddenly the champagne is flowing and theyre in a nefarious little drinking game about the habits of the other riders (i keep saying this but BOTH of their humor is like. mean sometimes. i mean they love to make FUN of people) and they catch jorge being awkward at dorna execs a BUNCH so suddenly theyre flat ass drunk. and having a good time. and feeling like its 2013.... and when they get released its like. well. marc inviting vale to hang out at his room. vale saying okay against his better judgement (hedonist for the win). one thing leading to the next. they fuck narstay. vale is GONEEEE in the morning. misano 2019. profit.

Intro:

(i'll just put it at the bottom so i remember to delete it)

I have been hoarding all of these (there are like 1000 more in my draft and queue lol) for a while now in my draft bc even tho they are like 3 note gifs, they are historical artefacts to meeee.

Anyway, I've got a cold, and so to occupy myself, I decided to just make a blog so that everything can be organised and easy (ish, this is tumblr after all) to find!

I know heaps of my fellow ✨motogp tumblrinas ✨have made archives for their favs, and you are all braver than me, bc I would lose all the gifs immediately if I tried to create new archival posts. So I just reblogged everything and am going to hope for the best in terms of copyright lol

But yeah, these aren't just my favs. This is more just a snapshot of the fandom at different periods. I only reblogged the deactivated ones, but, y'all, use the posts as little gateways to blogs from that time period, it is FACINATING.

As always, peer review is welcome! If i completely messed up a tag (very likely, since i used the mass tag editor), you're welcome to let me know. Also if there's a ship tag, fun tag or something you want me to add in the mass tag editor, lemme know! more than happy to add literally anything ✨✨

I only started this today, so it's very much a work in progress! All the things without a link are because the posts that match up with them are in the queue. I also need to add the ones i forgot

Top-5 races to watch any category and Top-5 races to watch only MotoGP

top 5 any category:

motoamerica 2022 new jersey race 2. i was there. it poured rain, petrux put out a 10 second lead, ashton yates was almost relevant!

500cc west german gp 1989. this is free on youtube and a perfect time capsule of the big bang era of the late 80s. the commentator calls mick doohan "mike", schwantz puts on a spectacular show, the vhs quality is endearingly terrible.

500cc italian gp 1993. this one is really just sad; wayne rainey crashes out, breaking his spine and becoming permanently paralyzed. it's an important part of racing history, though, and i don't think "favorite" means "best result", but "most emotionally impactful". rainey's injury ended his career, handing the championship to kevin schwantz. it's a reminder of the danger and sacrifice of racing.

wsbk most 2021 race 1. toprak's last lap pass against redding for the win literally changed my life. in post-race interviews redding said toprak should "show some respect"... basically asking for the win to be handed to him. anytime redding says anything now, i'm tempted to remind him to show some respect. it's become my catchphrase for making fun of him.

moto2 portugal 2022. objectively an awful result for almost everybody but one of my favorites nonetheless just for the drama and narrative arc. joe's first win.

top 5 motogp:

laguna seca 2006. a relatively popular pick, but fuck, this is a true classic. nicky hayden slays on home turf. the mark neale documentary about this race, the doctor, the kentucky kid and the texas tornado, is wonderful. it's so quintessentially 2000s.

austria 2021. maverick had his infamous meltdown and martin took his first win since his catastrophic crash at portimao earlier that year, having broken 8 bones.

styria 2021. same track, different weekends. brad got his first win in perhaps the most insane race finish of recent memory. i usually HATE pit stops in motorcycle racing (fuck daytona 200), but this one is a stunner from start to end.

cota 2023. alex motherfucking rins, baby! winning on an independent honda at a track he loves. this one just fills me with joy, a real feel-good race.

mugello 2019. one i revisit a lot. i just love petrucci, but there's tons of action all the way through! the last few laps are TENSE, suzuki was up in contention, and dovi gives a few great moments.

Once again, no #OnThisDay throwback post for this date.

Me 🇵🇭: Great reactions from every OCs from A-Pal about E3 2019. 🙂🎮 Although, that latter was the most cringe, all right, when he talk about "Cyberpunk 2077". Which, by the way, the game itself was already fixed with the anticipated "Phantom Liberty" DLC after their controversial haywire, that went hell. Meanwhile, that FH4 x LEGO Speed was most worthy DLC expansion, that the Speedster kids missed it. Hehe! 😅

(Meanwhile, and speaking of Speedsters)

Spot 🐶🏎️: Hey, hey, aren't we forget something, Shadow? Alex wants us to race, as well with his trusty favorite vehicle. 🚗😊

Riya 🐰🏎️: Yeah! C'mon, how about it? Let's start over, and see who's the best racer around the "Laguna Seca"? 😁

Maxwell: 2 Months of summer left and I'm about to join Phineas and Ferb's backyard beach again without Gnomeaggadon involve, but who my kidding, it was rather cool for my thoughts. Anyways, welcome to July 2019 and here Bryan shows our reactions back in E3 2019 reveals; somewhat like phone texting style.

BTW about Sam's reaction, we kinda knew about Breath of The Wild was, but haven't played it. To fans however, it was great open world Zelda game ever. So it was unexpected to get a sequel. 😁

Will's book - The Sheer Force of Will Power

Will is the third of four sons (eldest is an accountant, second is a dancer and Damien is a comedian). His great granddad (also called William Power) was a motorbike rider and had time records across Australia while his dad raced the lower rungs in Australia. He got into Penske thanks to Helio Castroneves’ IRS trial and impressed then enough to get seat time after Helio came back but in Sonoma that same season he had a crash that broke his back. During his recovery, he learned to play the drums.

Will had an intense rivalry with Dario Franchitti but they have become good friends since Dario was forced to retire. Up until a few years ago, he had a reputation for being hot-headed and prone to outbursts of anger. Lately, he’s been open about his anxiety and negative headspace and credits his wife, Liz, as being his rock and helping him learn to manage his emotions, resulting in a much calmer and focused Will. But even with that, his sense of survival is sketchy at times. He loves chocolate milk yet is very lactose-intolerant. He is also colorblind and his wife and mother-in-law are known to pick his clothing to prevent clashing.

Fanfic Lore

Historically paired with Dario Franchitti during the height of their rivalry and Simon Pagenaud while they were teammates. Also Mark Webber (F1) but that ship usually had a power imbalance and was not favorable to Will.

Despite those ships, Will is often cast as asexual in fics.
