Spies wins the GP at Assen
Spies wins the GP at Assen
Under a sky heavy with rain, but with the dry track from start to finish, the Dutch GP, once again, gave no emotions, but after a few turns, when Simoncelli has lost control of his Honda, crushing the innocent Lorenzo . Both are then divided, with Jorge sixth and ninth Simoncelli. DOMAIN SPIES Spies’ victory was never in question: as proof, the Superbike World Championship has hammered on the fast times, despite the intense cold that has forced all drivers to Starting with both the soft tires. He had seen evidence that the Yamaha was competitive here and the great comeback of Lorenzo confirms this: if you had not fallen on the first lap, the M1 would have done twice, because Jorge has turned in fast times. Crossed the finish line as world champion he thundered: “I was the race direction, one as Simoncelli would withdraw the license.” DOVI CONSISTING The inconsistency, unfortunately, does Simoncelli par with the great consistency of Dovizioso, who was the third podium in four races, second in a row. The Dovi finished rather detached from the first, but halfway through the race has kept pace with Stoner, and then slow down because of tire problems. Andrea is now only 9 points from second place in the league. DUCATI RED FIRST difficult after qualifying, Valentino Rossi in the race was, once again, more effective than in the test. Placing fourth, is definitely a good result as it was playing the game, but the gap – 30 “684 in 26 laps – it is still very high: the road is still long. Do not forget, however, that the course is in the worst possible conditions for the Ducati bike and finish with a never used it before in front of teammate is at least satisfactory. It ‘clear, however, that Rossi and Ducati dream of other results. THE FIRST COMMENTS Ben Spies : “It ‘really great to win with these colors, in a memorable day for Yamaha. Here my M1 was fantastic and I was able to push hard from beginning to end, thanks also to the team, which worked really well. ” Casey Stoner : “It ‘been a difficult weekend for us and this morning’s warm up we wanted to make changes that we are able to do only in part. In the race, however, went better than in the test: when there was the incident in the first few corners, I do not understand what had happened, but took UNPO Spies’ lead, while I was more conservative. I wanted to get there, but today he was simply too strong for me, second place is an excellent result. Andrea Dovizioso : “I am very happy. We arrived on the grid with rain tires, but the track was almost completely dry. I had to mount the soft front tire, but for my riding style is better than the harsh, aggressive, because I brake up into the curve. So, after some ‘speed took too many risks and I left to go Stoner, but then also showed a problem in the rear, with so much bounce. I feared something had happened, but fortunately Valentino was quite detached. Another podium finish is fine, just missing the last step. MOTO2 After a spectacular race, Marc Marquez won a solo in front of Kenan Sofuoglu and Bradley Smith, with Alex De Angelis fifth and sixth Mattia Pasini. The world championship points leader Stefan Bradl crashed three laps from the end, while he was in 11th position: now his advantage is down to 57 points on Marquez, now second in general. 125 second win of his career for Maverick Vinales, very good at taking off when it started to drizzle: while its rivals raised their arms asking the race direction to stop the race, he continued on the gas. Then, as the pilots have completed their 15th round – or two thirds of the race, the regulatory minimum to give a perfect score – Grand Prix course was stopped with the red flag.

Dani Pedrosa Confirms He Will Race At Mugello In His Repsol Blog
The good news is that Dani Pedrosa has finally confirmed that he will be racing at Mugello. After missing three races with an injured collarbone - sustained in a race crash with Marco Simoncelli at Le Mans - Pedrosa now feels sufficiently confident that his collarbone has healed that he has decided at last to return to competing in MotoGP. The operations - Pedrosa had one a couple of days after Le Mans to put a plate on his collarbone, then another one shortly after the Silverstone round of MotoGP to fix a loose piece of bone in the collarbone - have been a success, and Pedrosa's collarbone now feels sufficiently strong for the Repsol Honda rider to feel comfortable competing again.

For the first time in late November and with the enthusiasm of a child on Christmas Day, Marc M�rquez rode the bike with which he will compete in 2011. After a restless night, in the morning he faced an engine almost five times bigger than the one he had when he competed in the eighth-litre of the World Championship ?600cc instead of 125cc?, and a bike that is twice as heavy and has more than twice the power. From those first laps he has drawn his initial impressions of the category in which he will run next year.

Ducati To Bring Radically Revised GP11 For Rossi At Assen
The pairing of Valentino Rossi to Ducati was a match made in marketing heaven. The combined selling power of the two Italian legends was beyond question, and the very definition of the word "synergy". However, the match also involved huge risk: the only rider so far able to win on the capricious Desmosedici was Casey Stoner, and if nine-time World Champion and prime candidate for the title of greatest motorcycle racer of all time Rossi also failed, then questions would be asked both of Ducati's design direction and Rossi's ability to adapt to a bike that Stoner had clearly mastered.
The results speak for themselves: Despite having put the Desmosedici GP11 on the podium at Le Mans, and currently sitting in 4th in the MotoGP championship, it is clear that Rossi is a long way from being competitive on the Ducati in its current form. Despite multiple changes having been introduced - a new subframe/airbox, a new engine with a heavier crankshaft - the Ducati is still no match for either the peerless Honda, or even the underpowered Yamaha, the bike still incredibly difficult to turn. If Rossi is to be competitive on the Ducati, clearly a radically new approach is necessary.
