The MotoGP race at Phillip Island was closed, in fact, the first corner. Duty correction: it is never started. On the home circuit Casey Stoner wins by an absolute ruler, complete with the “poker” of success on the island of Victoria in the past four years with Ducati (2007-2010) scaring people and wildlife in the archipelago at the confluence of three ocean currents, impressed the pace set by 2007 World Champion. In a few laps his lead has increased dramatically: 1 “5 at the first crossing the finish line, raised in 2″, 2 “3, 2″ 7 3 “1, 3″ 5 out of Jorge Lorenzo, the only sections not deface lap in comparison with the red missile.

When in a “mixed” can give to everyone in 2 seconds Warm Up, there’s really no story. Stoner Thus was the third win of the season (and in 4 games), saluting the best possible experience “Australian” with the Ducati. To see him jump to the last bend is already showing a bit of nostalgia in 2011, when it will try to do the same with the Honda and the Desmosedici will be expertly guided by Valentino Rossi, always on the podium today (3 rd), confirmation of a new-found form physics that can postpone the surgery on the shoulder for the first half of November, Valencia test with Ducati permitting.

With the top two positions largely stabilized, as two distinguished absent Dani Pedrosa (coming in second place just behind Stoner in the championship) and Loris Capirossi, the fight was behind them. Valentino Rossi and Nicky Hayden gave a good show for the third place: 3 laps from the checkered flag to overtake the Ducatista the last lap the replica of the “Doctor”, without giving any chance to reply by winning the sprint for 38 thousandths of a meager benefit.

Good race Ben Spies, fifth and officially “Rookie of the Year” 2010 by beating his opponent the only hypothetical Marco Simoncelli, sixth in growth as well as the first Honda rider in the race. KO with Pedrosa, Marco Melandri and De Puniet 9 ° 10 ° off the track after the Repsol Honda box lowered their shutters after 3 laps for the withdrawal of Andrea Dovizioso caused by a technical failure to the RC212V. It should not be the best that historically suffers Suzuki at Phillip Island, 12 ° with Alvaro Bautista behind Mika Kallio at his last MotoGP race (at Estoril in two weeks with the # 71 will be Carlos Checa), honoring the commitment before leave behind a season to forget for a sporting point of view and human.

Chronicle of Race

Casey Stoner reaches its final position on the grid, but is the first to take the “Doohan” to Lorenzo comes in contact with Spies thus opening the door to Simoncelli, Dovizioso and Hayden, Melandri is 7 °, 9 ° Rossi . Already on the first lap Stoner earns a “503 on Lorenzo, Simoncelli follows passing Hayden for the third position while Rossi comes in contact with Melandri for the 8th position in the” Southern Loop “: # 27 is behind dell’imprendibile a nice brawl.

The demonstration comes on the third lap with Dovizioso who has a striking problem, starts 13th and staccatissimo from the leading group where Hayden is back in third position with Rossi already in contact with Spies. The Superbike World Championship is a furious charge in the fourth passage leads to the third place, leaving behind his compatriot with Hayden and Rossi Simoncelli wheel, fighting quartet compared to the last valid position for the podium.

Forced to surrender Andrea Dovizioso, stopped by an obvious technical problem with wing’s Honda RC212V after just five laps on the box that HRC can lower their shutters and prepare the material in view of Estoril. Aim for the podium Valentino Rossi and Hayden with a lap passes first contact at the hairpin after the “MG”, shortly after the sacrificial victim is even Ben Spies at the curve “Doohan” with the result of opening the doors to Simoncelli and Hayden that give the show with Edwards in great comeback.

Filed the first third of the race, the situation is well defined: Stoner not see anyone, following Lorenzo 4 “with Rossi and Hayden now tussle for the final podium spot to fifth place instead of Ben Spies and Marco Simoncelli . Meanwhile, Randy De Puniet, the focus of many rumors, is leading a “straight” to “Honda Corner by spreading last contact with Barbera and Aoyama in visible distress. We arrive at the final rush following the double-battle for 3rd and 5th place: behind Stoner and Lorenzo have the better of Rossi Hayden (great last lap overtaking) and Spies on Simoncelli. Followed by Edwards and Melandri Espargaro in ninth place, 14 riders at the finish line, all waiting Estoril points in two weeks.

After 13 races without getting on the top step of the podium in Australia found victory in the first MotoGP race on the new facility “Motorland Aragon” Alcaniz, breaking his personal failures longest streak of his career when, in 2007, World Champion and star of absolute top class. The Ducatista, fiance of HRC for the next two years, gave substance to a race … its: great start, just an exhilarating pace and final escape. Even Dani Pedrosa was unable to reach him, undertook to recover after a difficult start (he found himself 5th), markedly lower in the final when his handicap has risen from 1 “3 to 4″ (power management or the outcome?) .

Stoner’s victory is also to Ducati, waiting for Valentino Rossi (his worst result of the season, sixth at 27 seconds from the top …) consoles herself with two riders on the podium for Nicky Hayden was “invented” a great overtaking down ‘latest variation on Jorge Lorenzo: 1-3 Ducati for the first time there is a Yamaha on the podium at 2010. There is especially Lorenzo, fourth after the sequence of 13 consecutive podiums while remaining largely leader with 56 points ahead of Pedrosa with only five races remaining.

Household Diapason Three small consolation in the thought in perspective, because Ben Spies has been protagonist of a great race winning the duel for fifth place where he is self-excluded Andrea Dovizioso, slipped on the final lap, opening the doors to Valentino Rossi for the sixth position. To judge the race by 9 times World Champion just consider the postings by rivals: 27 “from the top, 18″ by Lorenzo, 13 “by Spies. We need one or more explanations.

Behind Rossi Marco Simoncelli finished seventh ahead of Alvaro Bautista and Marco Melandri, all the top ten, far away from Ducati and Casey Stoner back from finally protagonists as the golden age. Too late or just in time to play the role of “referee” of the world?

End of a long fast. After 12 races Casey Stoner back in pole position, a result that he lacked even the onset of the season in Qatar facing a difficult championship, to be forgotten, pending transition of its change of brand for 2011. With his Ducati Desmosedici GP10 has been found well to Motorland Aragon: best time in the wet yesterday afternoon, just this morning in optimal climatic conditions. The next step was the pole position this time has not escaped Iridium 2007, to reach a lap of 1’48 “942 like a thunderclap in the fighting ending of formal qualifications.

At the 20th career pole in MotoGP, Stoner trimmed to 3 / 10 Jorge Lorenzo, left to watch … especially the last (fast) sector where Casey made the difference. The leader of the world has recovered from a difficult morning, leaving behind Dani Pedrosa also, this time for his mistake on the last lap useful when it came off after a strong reference in the first two best lap of the circuit of Alcaniz. Okay for the driver of the Honda (and will remain for the next two years alongside his Stoner), especially considering the pace established in the practice sessions.

The challenge will be wide open with some uncertainty about the weather and the role of Valentino Rossi, 7th on the grid equaling worst result of the season at Indianapolis. A real “shot back” allowed him to gain half a second on his last lap certainty of finding the entire third row also tricolor with Andrea Dovizioso and Marco Simoncelli, but still behind Nicky Hayden, Ben Spies and Randy found a De Puniet from 4th to 6th on the grid.

Complete the top ten Hector Barbera, Alvaro Bautista can not do better than the 12th time with the only deployed Suzuki, Marco Melandri after tests in the wet to say the least convincing is found only at 14 ° in an unrecognizable Hiroshi Aoyama and Mika Kallio , 2 “from the top 5. For them it is ready the rain dance.

Solution to the spectacular failure of MotoGP? Promoting the skills to compete and vice versa. Even in Misano Adriatico hunting from pole has reserved final 10 minutes of the session and exciting, especially the last attempt explosion of “red helmets for Rossi, Lorenzo and especially Dani Pedrosa, fourth pole position of the season (35th in MotoGP 17 MotoGP) in two separate occasions, even managing to stop the clock sull’1’33 “948, split the vintage. Making a difference especially in T4 by the “Wagon” to the pit straight, the three-time world champion has tamed his Honda RC212V to the pole a valuable reassembling the group from “Fantastic 4″ MotoGP.

Pedrosa, but to follow Lorenzo, Stoner and Rossi. All there with uncertainties in anticipation of the race on pace (Pedrosa and Lorenzo not far), choice of tires (all with the “soft”, only Rossi very active with the “hard”), made the bike for a race that Misano is difficult prospect. Not like in Indianapolis, at least for Jorge Lorenzo who wants to put a spoke in the wheels to prevent his fellow classical feel of childbirth, I and go on the run.

Attempt to insert in the collision for Casey Stoner, the third with a slip of the assets of the curve “Rio”, but can bring the Ducati Desmosedici in the front row at the expense of Valentino Rossi, from the choice in contrast with regard to tires, by the excellent growth more than it can highlight the lap and continued to be recovered than half a second pair of heads.

No surprise to find Ben Spies in the fifth position, a well-deserved applause for Randy De Puniet who basically 6 weeks from injury at the Sachsenring is sixth on the grid with the Honda LCR team. As often happens Andrea Dovizioso has lost the right train “in qualifying, only eighth after good practice, before the order to Marco Simoncelli, Marco Melandri and Loris Capirossi Suzuki pays 1″ 1 from the peak to a grille starting compact, but that race can hardly surprises with the usual suspects up front.

In the dating game (4 teams in the top 8 positions in sequence with their pilots) Champion Dani Pedrosa, absolute ruler in Misano Adriatico. Appropriate term to describe the outcome of the first practice session of the Grand Prix of San Marino and Riviera di Rimini, where the three-time World Champion has left everyone at least 6 / 10, over a single lap, but on race pace . Approaching the good track record Pedrosa, close to confirmation HRC has traveled under constant wall dell’1’35 “with opponents engaged in understanding how we can yield similar to the recent winner of Indianapolis.

The “news” is that Honda has started the weekend well not happen as long, as thick and reluctantly to the Repsol garage the weekend began investigating devices to marry the best characteristics of the circuit with the RC212V. The confirmation comes from a tremendous Pedrosa but also by Andrea Dovizioso who finds himself in second place, even paying the canons 6 / 10 by teammate despite an appreciable recovery in the final session.

The dating game then proposes the two Repsol Honda the top two, followed by the Fiat Yamaha, the Tech 3 Yamaha and Ducati officers to complete training very homogeneous. Jorge Lorenzo is therefore 3 ° 6 / 10 from Pedrosa, while paying 0 “7 Valentino Rossi, as happens too often in the last period with a substantial handicap to recover.

All work to recover this gap even if the box can be satisfied Tech 3, 5 and 6th time of Colin Edwards and Ben Spies (winner last year at Misano Superbike Race 1 between), even before the official Ducati Nicky Hayden and Casey Stoner his usual alternating many laps and long briefing with their technical staff. Good news for Marco Melandri and Loris Capirossi in the early 13 th 10 with Marco Simoncelli: Misano all point to a race of pride and players.

Recovered with interest the success of failure of last year. Pedrosa dominates at Indianapolis centering the 3rd win of the season and 34th career MotoGP (11 of them in MotoGP), putting into practice his favorite among race strategies : the escape. Fourth after the first round, three-time World Champion has passed sequentially Hayden, Dovizioso and especially Ben Spies, a leader in the first seven laps later, giving the pole position yesterday. Since that time the road was inevitably downhill, with a wheelbase of reach for anyone not a matter of 2-3 tenths as shown by the evidence, but a “net at will, when necessary, when necessary. Couple as an important victory in sight last part of the championship, which could put it mildly for the championship (68 points are to be recovered), but portends a different for the 2011 Honda is finally following a path (which is one. .) development of the RC212V less dancing than usual, as only tamed Dani Pedrosa was unable to do in recent years.

America is called “runner up”, the second good, and today was definitely Ben Spies on the podium again after Silverstone, but this time after a weekend protagonist with the pole on Saturday and a valuable 2nd place in race . With the Tech 3 Yamaha team with technical updates of nature “motor” from Laguna Seca, a track like Indy, where he finished the 6th even with Suzuki in 2008, the Superbike World Championship in office did not miss the call using favorable opportunity to celebrate the best promotion to the official team for 2011.

A performance that could be a warning bell for Jorge Lorenzo, but the safety, speed and talent of the leader of the world does not pose any concerns, just think that today’s third place was his worst result of the season … down from the podium Valentino Rossi, 4th salvage in a weekend by three falls in four practice sessions (two days), paying duty against Lawrence, but also of Spies. Misano 7 days between the time comes to take stock of the situation to understand what is wrong if only compared to races like the Sachsenring and Laguna Seca.

There is the desire of the nine times world champion to fight for the top positions even in these his last adventure races for Yamaha before moving to Ducati Nicky Hayden in sixth place behind Andrea Dovizioso (15 “by the accused teammate Pedrosa) and Casey Stoner crashed in the early laps when he had his own “heir” with the Desmosedici for 2011.

If the 7th Marco Simoncelli resists attacks with a surprising Alvaro Bautista Suzuki Loris Capirossi has not gone beyond the eleventh place. On the ground Marco Melandri, only 13 riders at the finish line including the returning Hiroshi Aoyama preceded Randy De Puniet, returned in Misano Adriatico in 5 days where there will be time to recover from ailments, even for Dani Pedrosa to celebrate a success without discussions.

Chronicle of Race

Spies has an excellent behind the 2nd pass Dovizioso on Hayden, Pedrosa, Lorenzo and Rossi, Stoner badly as much as 9 °. Nothing changes in the first round, wait overtaking Pedrosa Hayden at the damage curve 10 which is the third position in pursuit of Spies and Dovizioso who have already taken a few meters ahead. Intermediate phase of stroke to “warm up” the tires on the third lap Lorenzo’s passing Hayden, Pedrosa takes second position with the fastest lap in 1’41 “406, Melandri finds himself on the ground in an attempt to Stoner to resist the 7th square bitterly closing its 200th Grand Prix in MotoGP.

Skip a few laps before you see the race enlivened somewhat by passing Stoner Rossi Hayden rejoining except fall near the seventh lap ending in zero from the first race at Le Mans this part. Virtually the same time Pedrosa exploits the wake of Ben Spies and sets the command, following a step-by-race with frightening 1’40 “8 eleventh round, a” better than everyone, including Jorge Lorenzo which bypasses Dovizioso for third place.

He stops in the pits to a technical problem Colin Edwards, his teammate Ben Spies takes the comparison distance with Jorge Lorenzo view and does not seem to have trouble keep the second place: much more complicated the work of Andrea Dovizioso now also approached Valentino Rossi.

Towards the final rush falls Mika Kallio when he was in 9th place near Bautista and Simoncelli, there are more changes with Dani Pedrosa wins by dominating Ben Spies, Jorge Lorenzo was third followed by Valentino Rossi, Andrea Dovizioso, Nicky Hayden and Marco Simoncelli. Appreciable eighth Alvaro Bautista with Suzuki, Loris Capirossi only better than 11 percent.

A red car has won this year carried 500 miles by Dario Franchitti, a motorcycle of the same color has commanded the first MotoGP practice session at Indianapolis. This is the Ducati Desmosedici GP10 of Casey Stoner in one of his last appearances with the Borgo Panigale, but legitimizing the best contract offers itself as a leader in the second American trip in the world. Three times under the wall dell’1’41 “best reference final lap in 1’40″ 884 22 laps along well, a lot compared to its usual standards.

Good sign for the 2007 World Champion who has promised a victory before moving to Ducati / Honda to return next season, trying to beat “Ironman” Jorge Lorenzo in second place already paying a little more than 2 / 10 in comparison stopwatch unable dell’1’41 to beat the wall. “ From his second script, is the “race pace” for a few laps approached by Stoner and, early in the session, including Ben Spies, only to fly to the ground in the last minute to turn 13 in one of his fastest laps (it was below 31 milliseconds to T1) losing ground in the standings (8 th after being in the head).

And Valentino Rossi? Only the last staff around the “save” from a position in the standings otherwise problematic fifth, but recovered by 7 / 10, traveling to all 60 minutes of the session with a (minimum) at a disadvantage compared to the leading drivers. In contrast to Stoner, the long pauses and gestures seem to leave the pits not bode well for this first weekend after the announcement of his move to Ducati, also seeing the comparison with other competitive Yamaha, Colin Edwards see a renewed the sixth time.

Despite a fall in assets, hitting back with my left hand aching since Brno, Nicky Hayden feels the air of home wins and the 3rd time on a circuit where he finished on the podium in both 2008 (2 °) than in 2009 (3 °, the first podium with Ducati). Among the top 10 also included Andrea Dovizioso with the seventh time, Aleix Espargaro surprising with the 9th time trial, leaving behind the Honda Gresini pair in the order made by Marco Melandri and Marco Simoncelli. Alvaro Bautista, 14 °, is the first of the Suzuki riders just ahead of team-mate Loris Capirossi to return back Hiroshi Aoyama and Randy De Puniet still not the best, fully justified the disadvantage of 2 “one from the top.
