I don't think people appreciate how insanely impressive it is to explain an engineering/science concept in something that's not your first language.

[@schecterguitarsfan]

for hardcore fans or those that ride, i'm sure this topic is understood already. but it's basic video like this that're more likely to engage with new fans and it's great! Keep them coming with all the technical sides in the sport.

[@sburns2421]

Glad they posted it despite being extremely basic, beginner level stuff. And ironic that the Honda today seems to be the most difficult beast to ride once the tires wear a bit during the race in 2024. What would be interesting is if MotoGP put a series of these together using different crew chiefs as a playlist that new fans can watch.

Nice job Santi

Thnks MotoGp.. i really need a grip on my studies

[@RemmyJunior-bo3mz]

Thank you sharing the knowledge. Love to have more content like this technically.

[@rider65]

What knowledge Fozzy Bear? 🙄

[@onedayiwillmakesomecontent]

A cutaway section of the slick vs the rain tyre would be a good thing to see the different profiles 👍

[@m0rph3u1st]

Very clear explanation! Thank you!

[@noemiangeles9452]

Me parece muy bien que Repsol Honda este actualizándose en el buen funcionamiento de sus motocicletas, poniéndoles avances tecnológicos para que tengan mejor potencia y sean completamente competitivas con las de otras marcas Saludos desde México! 🇲🇽

[@petarmaricc9096]

Grip, one thing Honda doesn't have.

[@alengreen589]

and that for 3 long years.

[@Erik10hagdya]

Especially in the front end

[@alengreen589]

@@Erik10hagdya and rear, out of the corner they have no grip and thats why they are the slowest on the straights.

[@rider65]

Mechanical grip from the chassis, yes.

Muy bien explicado 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Great to hear from the making it all happen!

An expert in his field. The balloon example really helps understand this complex topic. I appreciate the content.

grip is king

[@Khurapatilog]

Love to watch you guyzz always

[@davidepochetti921]

About track condition I would add that rubberised track condition helps grip, but if weather condition change and start raining, then rubberised lines gets slippery af and drivers need to stay away form those lines and need to find clean asphalt lines. Does it make sense.. ?

[@alvarodeprado3814]

Un grande

[@Amalie_201]

First❤❤❤. I love MotoGP❤❤

[@user-vu5xp1xq2q]

Que Deus proteja há todos por nós dá esse show maravilhoso e livre sempre os pilotos Honda de acidente por terem as piores motos é por estar sempre em situações de grande risco Q péssima escolha fez o Marini

[@thesighbored]

Honda team engineers need to watch this....Uh.. Hold up.

Now throw in compounds and sidewall structure !! Fun party !!

I'm glad Santi looks good, I've been worried sick, the last few years have not been good for him, he even has all his fingernails!

[@piotrkobielus6156]

[@MattieXMoto]

I hear some riders are afraid of front brakes. This video shows why you must use front brakes to load the tire for grip. Another reason you need trail braking as well.

[@rogerperez4270]

Honda: "What is grip?" 😅

[@evawat2019]

I wonder how fulfilling it is for him to work with Mir vs Marc?

[@idham5688]

very good explanation despite using his second language. very impressive👍

[@rider65]

🤣🤣🤣🙄🙄🙄🤮🤮🤮

[@torangclayruz4098]

This guy never developed Honda but Dani did it.

[@inclinedtoplane2924]

I don’t understand why greater contact patch or more surface area due to lower tire pressure affects the grip the tire gets because basic physics say the force of friction is only affected by the normal force and the coefficient of friction.

[@guiwonsik]

as a brazilian the grip term is funny. since "gripe" here means having a cold.

[@petesmitt]

gripe in English means complain or stomach ache.

[@Pikestnt]

Yes - In French, “la grippe” is influenza.

Did he mention aero grip, The wings?

[@MrArga352]

[@DiegoNovoa]

The Italian accent while talking in english is crazy considering he is Spanish

[@luisfernandocaroli3463]

Kkkk maybe motogp choose the wrong time give us explanation about grip, but it was good, my adivice to honda team is, you might need put this in a race

[@Angel-wo8gv]

4:39 sweet baby Jesus, that's an impressive angle of lean on a dry surface, let alone on the wet! :0

[@alengreen589]

and grip is a thing where Honda can´t find for 3 years.

If there is a lot genious engineers, no more progress means there was FRAUD at Management Level both in Honda and Yamaha Principal 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

YOU mean contact patch

Lol Honda men talk about grip 😂😂

The irony of this video😂

good video, just finding it ironic how honda is explaining "grip" with the worst bike on the grid ahhahaha

[@jacklee7505]

This info clearly got lost in translation between the Spanish and Japanese at Honda....Honda Riders ...no greeeep on the back, but they keep on losing the front...but since im not Spanish or Japanese i dont have a clue what's going on ...!? Im slapping wings on my bike this weekend 🤪 🤞

[@AHbinHMhassaniSOs]

Hey honda put a bag of sand, it gives you good grips

[@macedhx]

So Santi, does the Honda lacks Grip, Engine, geometry or aerodynamics? Hope you guys can fix it because the Honda engine is the best sound on the paddock!

What temprrrrrrteaaattuuurrr😂😂

no translate or subtittle ? please available translate or subtittle

The greep

[@petesmitt]

spanglish..

[@tamboleo]

All the inputs that Santi says can be easily programmed and controlled with a remote tire pressure controller during the race I don't know why they don't develop something on this regard so some riders stop bitching about wrong tires and so.

[@DeanicussMT10]

Drinking game, take a shot every time you hear “Grip”.

[@gilabalap1473]

Sediakan translate dong please 🤣

[@gofiomoto]

Patético que no estén disponibles los subtítulos. La gran mayoría de espectadores, el "mass media" no son usuarios del inglés y menos lo manejan con fluidez como para tener estas faltas y esta . Pathetic that this video does not show subtitles. The majority of the spectators do not use English, much less fluently, how could MotoGP have this disappointment with them.

Selamat Honda lagi lagi sangat menyesal melepaskan raider terbaik Marc Marquez dan lebih memilih raider yang pengalaman nya sangat buruk yaitu joan mir Luca marini mereka hanya pelengkap di MotoGP saat ini. Honda tidak akan lagi bisa berkembang seperti dulu disaat Marc masih menunggangi nya. Sekarang Honda akan selalu peringkat paling belakang. 😂😅🤣🤣🤣😅😂😅
