JAKARTA – Repsol Honda racer Marc Marquez has often been to Indonesia. However, he mispronounced the colors of the flag of the world's largest archipelagic nation.
This was known when Marquez and his teammate Pol Espargaro were tested for general knowledge of Indonesia by the YouTube channel Welovehonda Indonesia. The post was re-shared by the world champion on Instastory on Tuesday, March 15.
In the show, Marquez and Espargaro were asked about the capital city of Indonesia, the special food, the color of the flag, and the location of the Mandalika circuit.
When asked about the color of the flag, Marquez hastily answered and said there was a blue color before correcting it. Meanwhile, Espargaro answered correctly.
"Red, Blue and White," said Marquez. However, he immediately realized his mistake so he immediately corrected. "No. Red and White."
The rest of the two racers were fluent in correctly answering all the remaining questions. They compactly answered that Jakarta is the capital city of the country, compactly answered that fried rice was a special dish, and compactly answered Lombok when asked about the location of the Mandalika Circuit.
"Lombok but very close to turning," said Espargaro.
"No. No. The island is called Lombok," Marquez interrupted.
When asked about who visits Indonesia more often, Marquez enthusiastically answered immediately. He claims that he visits Indonesia the most when compared to Espargaro.
The Spaniard's claim is quite reasonable. The reason is that before the Mandalika MotoGP he had been to Indonesia in 2019 and then when he stopped in Bandung, West Java.
"Of course I have. I often go to Indonesia, much more often than Pol," he said.
Marquez and Espargaro will be aiming for the podium during the race at the Mandalika Circuit on March 20. During the first series in Qatar on March 6, only Espargaro was on the third podium or behind Enea Bastianini (Ducati) and Brad Binder (KTM).
At that time Marquez only finished fifth behind Aleix Espargaro from the Aprilia team.
