5 more rounds to go for the 2010 season, but with Pedorsa out of the championship the title fell at Lorenzo’s lap.

Lorenzo has 284 points, Stoner 155, and Rossi 140….5 rounds to go, so you do the math, and enjoy tomorrow’s round.

From the GSX-R to the RR

Leon Haslam has been officially released from his contract with Alstare Suzuki due to financial problems facing the team.

Deep pocketed BMW seized the opportunity, and Haslem will be taking Ruben Xaus place riding alongside Troy Corser in the BMW Motorrad team for the 2011 season.

I believe this a great move by BMW, as they need a young rider with great stamina and determination like Haslem next to Corser their experienced rider.

Ducati dominates Imola

But Aprilia claims the championship….what an exciting race it was, in race one Ducati claimed the entire podium and in race two Ducati claimed the 1st and 2ed positions.

Checa on the Ducati and Sykes on the Kawasaki gave us a great show, i have never seen a Kawasaki performing that good before….on the other hand Biaggi did not do much in this race as if he was certain of the championship…and a mistake from Haslam gifted the championship to Aprilia.

The final round will take place in France on Oct 3ed. and it will only rearrange the manufacturer standings a bit.
