1.\tMaking the bike skid:<\/h3>\n

In MotoGP<\/strong> bikes, riders have a traction control<\/a> programme in the ECU, which prevents the back wheel from skidding. But when it comes to riding fast, the riders need the bike to skid just the right amount. There are those who prefer more or less skidding, but the key is knowing how to master it in order to turn the bike.<\/p>\n

As the rider skids the rear wheel, the bike changes its trajectory and takes the turn in a much faster way, thus being in a better position to accelerate as quickly as possible upon exiting the turn.<\/p>\n

Additionally, even though it may seem strange, the tyres reach their maximum level of grip when they skid slightly on the asphalt. <\/p>\n

Finding the adequate balance is difficult, and can be achieved with practice and experience. It\u2019s key to evaluate the state of the tyres and the track correctly to know how to moderate the applicable traction control in each moment. <\/p>\n
