On Wednesday, Marc Márquez and Dani Pedrosa will give a road safety workshop to 30 high school students from the Sepang district.

The Repsol Honda team riders have achieved four victories in the last six editions of the Malaysian Grand Prix. Pedrosa won in 2012, 2013 and 2015, and Márquez did so in 2014.

The Repsol Honda team come into the penultimate round of the season leading the team and constructors standings, with a 16 and 39 point lead, respectively.

Marc Márquez

“We had quite an eventful race in Australia and it was a pity we couldn’t fight until the end, but that’s gone now and we look forward to the next round in Malaysia with our usual spirit and positive mentality. We still have our target of two more titles to achieve, and we also want to try and win again if we have the chance to do so. Malaysia is a demanding round from a physical point of view but that’s something we’re prepared to deal with, so we’ll keep our concentration high and try to start strong beginning on Friday morning.”

Dani Pedrosa

“The Malaysian Grand Prix is a demanding venue due to both the extreme weather conditions and the track itself, which isn’t an easy one, being wide and requiring precise lines and a good setup. That said, I like it very much, so I hope we can do good work and find a setting that allows me to feel good on the bike and to try to have a good weekend.”
