Nice,looks like turn 3? it`s a natural for high speed power sliding and where i have sat for 3 of the last 5 MotoGP`s there.

Always blew out on Kevin Schwantz and his slide the front technique for scrubbing off speed and then learnt how to do it myself,certainly the quick way around.

Probably his most notable was at the old Le Mans (before they put the chicane in) when he lost the front at 180mph,or some ridiculous speed, (but stayed on) on the fastest corner on the circuit and left a black line something like 400m long from it.
 
Awesome picture of #34 there, loving the old school leathers aswell!

Here's one of Marco Simoncelli doing what he did best at the same corner in Sepang I think....

Surely he must have received a penalty for cutting this corner!
