We placed Dani Pedrosa in an F1 car. | Dani Pedrosa 's Two to Four Wheels

Check out this week how Dani Pedrosa tries to drive an F1 car and get better at it.
Honda team-mates Marc Marquez and Dani Pedrosa took a break from two wheels at the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg, Austria swapping their Repsol Honda RC213 bikes for the might of a V8-powered Red Bull Racing RB8 as used in the 2012 F1 campaign by Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel.

This time, we got Dani Pedrosa to try, and the results are... quite surprising.

All this goes in preparation for the MotoGP stop in Germany. The tight Sachsenring is one of the slowest-run races on the calendar, but racing at close quarters makes for a bruising, elbows-out, all action event. The first bike races in the area were held in 1927, on the roads and streets in and around Hohenstein-Ernstthal. By 1990, and with reunification beckoning, street racing was too hazardous to continue. In 1996, the purpose-built Sachsenring was opened near Chemnitz and hosted its first MotoGP race in 1998. Many improvements have taken place since then, including a drastic layout enhancement in 2001. The 2017 event saw Marc Márquez seal victory to kickstart a late-season charge towards the title – will 2018 prove to be as pivotal?

I like Pedrosa because he is a humble person..

[prabhugautham]

Lovely swapping bike Pedrosa for an f1 car for a day. Webber as usual brilliant instructor .

[Rideordiealmelo]

I would like to see F1 drivers do a few laps on a MotoGP bike😂

[Vickyrocks]

I wonder if his knees were instinctively pointing outwards in corners while driving this car! 😂

Perhaps Dani should consider a stint in F1 now that he has announced his retirement from MotoGP. Cannot believe his pace first time in the car compared to the reference lap... I know he is a world class racer and athlete, and certain skills and technique would translate from riding the GP bike to driving the F1 car. But still entirely different machine, number of wheels and amount of traction, different lines and speeds, braking, downforce, etc. Remarkable job.

You need some talent to survive in motoGP for so many years.. he surely is one exceptional rider/driver . ..

[alikhadour]

It’s a shame he’s leaving. One of the best
