Coming to the Czech MotoGP


Finally, Suzuki Shown with Two Rider Again
Since entering the year 2011, the Rizla Suzuki team as the only private team of people carrying a rider. Though racing team from Japan's has pretty good potential to achieve good results and compete with other manufacturer teams. Unfortunately, lack of funds for the development of engine and motor performance make the Suzuki should stick with one driver only.

But to Brno in the Czech MotoGP series will take place on Sunday (14 / 8) this weekend, Rizla Suzuki team will have two riders again, that is Alvaro Bautista with the status of the main riders John Hopkins and the status of wild card riders.

Hopkins with the preparation of the entry of more mature, certainly warrant concern by Bautista. Because Hopkins himself on two different event two consecutive weeks, was able to achieve good results on the podium. If it happens also in the series this time, where Hopkins can perform better than the performance Bautista Bautista questionable.

"Circuit Brno is one of my favorite circuits. It did not wait to try out a prototype motor this weekend. This race will definitely be very hard, remember the people here has been racing since the beginning of the year. While I still have to adapt again to the character of the motor. Hopefully I can give a good result for the team, "said Hopkins.

Jhon Hopkins is Back?

Good news for fans of Suzuki and especially John Hopkins, Anglo American English champion is certain to re-use the Suzuki GSV-R at least in 3 series of upcoming post-Brno. This means that Suzuki will have a format similar to last year. This would ensure that the Suzuki MotoGP will be back in 2012? We'll still waiting!

Stoner Has Won at Laguna Seca !


Prediction battle between Honda and Yamaha at Laguna Seca proved. Lorenzo actually led the race from the beginning until on lap 26, but since early in the race he was followed by a rider Dani Pedrosa until lap 16 so that the tire is a bit thin, and Dani passed by Stoner on lap 17 ... Lorenzo subsequently pursued by Stoner until the end lap 26 on a straight line he could easily pass Lorenzo ... Could it be because the tire is worn out? Could be ...
While the second group of Simoncelli, Spies, Dovizioso and Rossi fought, but fell on lap 8 Simoncelli, Bautista was subsequently also fell on lap 13.
Last, ... 3 laps ahead of the visible distance dispersal between Stoner - Lorenzo farther ... about 3 seconds ...! 2 Lap before dispersal, can perform in front of Spies ... overtaking Dovizioso ...! Until the end of the race, Stoner was able to become champions ... defeating Lorenzo and Pedrosa in third ... ...!

In the first row ... the first position is occupied by Casey Stoner and Dani Pedrosa ... placed second and Jorge Lorenzo in third ...! While in the second row is occupied by Simoncelli, Spies and Dovizioso ...! When the lights went out and start MotoGP begins ...
When the race starts in front of Pedrosa was followed by Lorenzo .... but not long after Lorenzo had managed to overtaking the lead in front of Pedrosa ....! The third position is occupied temporarily by Dovizioso, followed by Stoner and Simoncelli ...! Be seen once the game is Lorenzo ... while behind Simoncelli Spies can not do much ...! Yup, this early in the race ... .... Where is Rossi...?



Rossi was slowly passing one by one ... he was able to place the 10 ... began chasing the group Bautista, Hayden, Edwards ...! Lorenzo tried to run away ... eventually slowly started to rise ... Stoner and Lorenzo made it through. On lap eight, succeeded in overtaking Pedrosa Dovi and occupies the third position.
 
Lap 10, Rossi had succeeded in overtaking Edwards and placed into 9 ... and again chasing Bautista and Hayden.
Lap 12 .. Simoncelli succeeded in overtaking Dovi ... and lap 13, Stoner, Lorenzo managed mengovertake again ...
Lap 16, Lorenzo is still in front, but it turns pursued Pedrosa, Stoner, Simoncelli and Dovizioso, but not long Simoncelli position ... also diovertaking by Dovi when it is a bit wider ...! 
On lap 18, .. Rossi succeeded in overtaking Bautista ... and now pursuing Hayden ...! 
On lap 19, .. Rossi tried overtaking Hayden but somewhat widened ... so he instead on overtaking by Bautista ...! In front of the group had shrunk ... where Lorenzo front-uber pursued by Pedrosa and Stoner ...! While in the second group occurred duel between Dovi vs Simoncelli!


Lap 21, ... successfully overtaking Pedrosa Lorenzo in straight ... and tried to run away ... and looked Pedrosa very quickly .. and now occurs duel between Lorenzo vs. Stoner ...! Lap 24 Stoner managed to overtaking Lorenzo Lorenzo ... and try to leave it ...! Lap 25, .. Rossi back mengovertake Bautista ... and try to catch Hayden in front ...!
Last, ... stay 4 laps seem more exciting duel between Stoner vs. Lorenzo .... and for profit Lorenzo beat Stoner's important that it gets smaller gap in the standings ...! Until the end of the race Pedrosa still leads ... and the Sachsenring MotoGP champion ...! The second position is occupied by Lorenzo where at the end of the race successfully mengovertake Stoner ...!
Congratulations for Repsol Honda Team that has won the exciting race this time!
