MotoGP 2011 – Sachsenring

Dani Pedrosa takes a confident win at Sachsenring leaving Lorenzo stealing second from Stoner on the last lap, on the last corner no doubt.

Stoner still leads the championship but his lead is getting slowly crushed by Lorenzo who is playing the points and consistency game. Rossi sadly started near the back and fought his way to the middle of the pack where he stayed and had a very competitive race with Hayden and Bautista but the Ducati still hasn’t been tamed, starting to worry for him next year now!

MotoGP Mugello 2011

Once of the favourite tracks of the season, the Italian GP, Rossi and Simoncelli’s track with lots of elevation changes and lovely corners. Sadly it didn’t really live up to the buzz that was created, largely because Rossi was struggling and Simoncelli was behaving. Lorenzo managed to take the win due to Stoners tyre pressure issues causing him to loose grip and have to drop the otherwise untouchable pace he was setting for half the race.

Rossi battled from 12th to finish 6th by the end but fans were hoping for more, especially as the bike base is supposed to be the improved version ready for next season, disappointing was probably the feeling everyone felt but as always with The Dr, there is still plenty of hope out there for him to do miracles with the team at Ducati.
