Moto GP

With a 125cc World, and Moto2 World Championships safely under his belt, and, after a spectacular come back from last place, In the Rain, to win Valencia! Can this teenager be very far behind to become the next MotoGP Champion of the World?

Of Rossi? He's starting to get hurt trying to keep up with the young guns. I said two years ago that I reckoned he had two years left in him. Let's see if I'm right.

HONDA RACING INFORMATION Italian Grand Prix at Mugello Saturday June 2, 2007 WET WEATHER PLAYS HAVOC WITH QUALIFYING IN ITALY The MotoGP grid was almost washed out here at a sopping wet Mugello, but in semi-wet and then tough, slippery conditions it was Casey Stoner (Ducati) who took his first pole position of the season, with Chris Vermeulen (Suzuki) qualifying second fastest and Valentino Rossi (Yamaha) completing the front row. As the hour long MotoGP qualifying session got underway the track was still damp after a thorough downpour earlier and riders emerged on wet tyres to cope with the soaking track. The early pacesetters were Stoner, Vermeule…

Italian Grand Prix at Mugello Sunday June 3, 2007 Crowd figures: race day 85,000, weekend total 128,000. Weather: Morning overcast, afternoon sunny. Temperature: 24 degrees. DANI PEDROSA RIDES HARD FOR SECOND AS ROSSI WINS IN ITALY What promised to be a barnstormer of a MotoGP race in the earlier stages of this 23-lap race proved to be ultimately less tight than imagined as Valentino Rossi (Yamaha) led Dani Pedrosa (Repsol Honda RC212V) to the flag with Alex Barros (Ducati) third. With a capacity crowd of 85,000 enjoying sunshine after rain threatened to appear but held off, the field left the line in a blur of noise and colour to begin one of the more…

Seems the Volcano has postponed the Moto GP in Japan Japan Postponed

Probably one of the best I can rember for a while and I'm well chuffed with the result.

Yamaha GP points leader Jorge Lorenzo appears to be in line for another Championship Title. Current Champion, Casey Stoner has not seemed to recover fully from that broken ankle accident, and perhaps he'd like to exit his active carreer entact to enjoy the rest of his life, no blame there. Honda's Dani Pedrosa, seems to be on a winning streak and is not likely to catch up to winning the top spot, being he is 28 points behind Jorge Lorenzo. My take on the last three races is: Lorenzo will be happy to accept 20 points for each of the last three races,(2nd place), rather than submit himself to risking danger for the 25 points given to first place. Can you see anything differ…

anyone know whats happened to Max Biaggi as hes not in moto gps anymore

By the looks of it, Stoner is making this look easy, but watching the interviews it is just as much as a battle for setup and tyre choice as any other team. So for getting it right more times than the others and off pole, good on him. Also the best part is no one had previous track data for the change of track direction, which shows the win was even sweeter to skill with team input and not ass or familiarity from previous experience. To see another Aussie on the podium with him (Chris Vermullen) is great to see from my countries point of view, as 3 Aussie riders were in the top 10. Good form coming through. Is was still sad to see Rossi pull out due to bike failure,…

Well what race today. I am glad to report racing is back as Mr. Rossi and Mr. Lorenzo proved today. No love lost between that pair anyway. Spies had a good comeback after his off. All in all a good early morning race Iain

whats you favourete bike/track/rider.

Come on Casey

Blimey Rossi in second place...thats rare now. He had been languishing in the mid pack last season but now he seems to have got a new mojo. High track temperatures meant most riders had tyre trouble with degradation and slip which caused at least 5-6 biggies and at least one stretcher case. In the end Rossi failed to make it a win, but it is good to see him out with the front runners.

anyone going next year to european rounds it would be good if we could all get together

Hondas Finish Pre-Season Testing on Top Honda riders ended the pre-season with the top two times and five of the top six, on a day of difficult conditions at the Losail International Circuit outside the Qatari capital of Doha. The newest team member Casey Stoner (Repsol Honda RC212V) finished the test slightly quicker than team-mate Dani Pedrosa just days before the start of the championship. The performance by Honda riders culminated an extraordinary and unprecedented pre-season in which Honda riders finished on top on all eight days of testing, six days in Sepang, Malaysia and here in Qatar for two days. More than just bragging rights, the performance is indicative t…

Melandri shines on good day for Honda riders on day one of final pre-season MotoGP test. Gresini Honda rider Marco Melandri set the pace on the opening day of the three-day MotoGP test at Jerez, Spain

MotoGP pre-season testing was brought to a close at the 4.423km Jerez circuit, Spain today as the grand prix teams completed their final three-day winter test session in preparation for the gruelling 18-round world championship series that opens at Doha, Qatar on March 10 - the first ever race under the new 800cc capacity regulations. The next time they meet the fruits of their labours will be tested to the full in one of the most eagerly awaited contests for several years. Winter testing has produced no clear indication of which man or machine starts the season as favourite to win the most coveted title in motorcycle racing. Honda teams and ride…
