The great moment of Japan GP weekend was the achievement of the title by Marc Márquez. The return to the top of what is already a legend of motorcycling, although it is still active, it was a moment of congratulation for all those who have sports spirit even if they are not fans of Spanish. Although his weekend was not the best of the year, he left Motegi with two seconds posts in addition to the title.
It is possible that even the most clueless realized that Marc had a different design during the Japan GP. This, which is already a tradition by Catalan, as when he disputes some large awards indicated such as Catalonia or the United States, it happens to be even more special this year because with him the feat of returning to the top five seasons later has achieved.
It is a special design that we can also enjoy the rest of mortals because Shoei has launched the X-Spr Pro Marc Márquez Motegi. With its ranks of the range, the X-Spr Pro as a base, the peculiar design is available to anyone. We are not talking about any helmet, it has ECE 22.06/FIM certification, all alerons and wings we see in the MotoGP helmet, CWR-F2R screen with central closing mechanism and an optimized ventilation system. In short, the best of the Japanese house.
Marc Márquez’s helmet in Japan’s GP had a lot of symbolism
But this time it stands out for the colors and details it has. The flowers and different decorative elements strongly linked to the Asian country cannot be missing. But what stands out are the doll dolls with one of their full eyes and the other does not. Who does not know this type of dolls and if he looks at the detail, he will see that one of his eyes is incomplete, but it is not an error but a tradition.
And the Daruma are lucky amulets, which symbolizes perseverance, fortune and achievement of objectives, and their two eyes come empty. When the objective to be achieved is set (or puts sticker) in the first and when that goal is achieved the second is placed and, as we all know, Marc’s goal was not completed until Sunday afternoon, hence it did not have it.
The helmet is now available in different suppliers and can be obtained in Spain. Of course, it is not especially cheap, because the price at which we have located is € 949 when the X-SPR Pro totally white has a PVP of € 799, although it can be achieved by 719.10.
