All the sacrifices including pay from honda, basic pay from gresini, leaving money from monster(ducati is not about money) just to get in a ducati factory shows what's coming. After this, if people still believe marcs downplay about himself, fool is the right word.

Over the years, Marc has shown he does things for the principle. Especially when it comes to loyalty. Got to respect a guy like that.

He has enough money and he knows it. This isn't F1, where drivers evade taxes in Monaco then ironically fly the flags of the country they abandoned.

Spanish revenue agents would beg to differ. specifically in the case of one, Jorge Lorenzo.

Most of Riders live in Andorra though to evade taxes aswell, even though marc lives in madrid and pays his taxes in spain.

To be fair, the taxes in Spain are a robbery.

It's still a violation to an individual's basic freedom to do as they will with their salary. I'll leave it there because we're getting into non motogp territory.

Yeah that's probably a discussion for other subs, anyway, marc still choses to do it on spain and i was just highlighing that, in contrast to other riders, as fabio, aleix or jorge that reside in andorra

Apart from all the riders who live in Andorra!

(and I'd do the same in a heartbeat)

Well yes, they do happen not to live in Monaco, but I'm not so sure about the whole not evading taxes thing.
