Friday morning Marc Marquez asked his fans over Twitter what they think of his new motegi helmet. Marc says in spanish: A Special helmet and t-shirt for a special Grand Prix in Japan, at home, do you guys like it? Below you can see the picture he shared over twitter.

With "at home"  Marc refers to the home place of Honda where he hopes to take the world championship before Lorenzo can be more of a threat to his first title in the premier class.

Marc Marquez shows he is a happy member of the Honda family and showing this in style. With the design of his helmet he clearly thanks the Japanese for enabling him to have an extremely good rookie year - breaking several records - by wearing the Japanese flag on his helmet

While Honda would love to see Marc Marquez take the Motegi win, Marquez will still have to show he is the best. And he does this in Japanese style!
