Isle of Man TT legends name a MotoGP rider who could tackle the Mountain Course
Which MotoGꦛP rid✤er would be best at the Isle of Man TT?

Legends of the Isle 𒁃of Man TT have debated which MotoGP rider would excel on the Mountain꧙ Course.
A recent Monster E🔥nergy Day brought together elite🐬 riders from road racing, MotoGP and World Superbikes at Silverstone.
Despite the differences in their disci♏plines, the subject of crossing over inevitably cro🗹pped up.
John McGuinn𝐆ess was asked which MotoGP rider would perform well at the TT, and 💖he responded to TNT Sports: “Not Marquez!”
But Peter Hickman said: “But Marquez is the one w♛ho’෴s got the head for it.
“He’d have a go. He wo📖uldn’t thi🌱nk too much about it, he’d crack on.”
McGuinness said: “I think you’d w🤪ant a smooth, calculated rider like a Viꦛnales who’d suit the TT.
“ไBut their programme is so busy they woul꧋dn’t have time to do it. I’m sure they’d have the minerals.
“If they really set their mind to it, any one of those MotoGP guys would be competitive༒ at the TT.”
Hickman replied: “100%. If you can ride a bike, you can ride a b꧒ike and it doesn’t matter where it is.”
Marquez has previously said about the TT: “I h❀ave a lot of respect for the riders that race there, but I don’t like it.
“I like to have fun, to enjoy riding, to look for the limit; to go to the Isle of Ma🦋n is to gamble away your life, that's how I see it.”
Pecco, Martin and Marc 🏆

Michael Dunlop said: “Martin, it’s a year where… he doesn’t have to do it, but if he doesn’t, he’ll have spent too lon♛g on it.
“I’ll go with Martin. Pecco🍒 is fantꦚastic as well. It’ll get rough and ready…”
