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.

According to MCN, Valentino Rossi will be quitting Yamaha to sign a deal with Ducati.

The trusted insider told MCN that Rossi is walking out because of a dispute over the renewal of his multi-million contract and his refusal to continue racing with Jorge Lorenzo as his team-mate.

Q&A with Vale

1. Vale, first question: how are you and are you still in pain?

The positive thing is that the worst is past and that the two operations went well, so everything is okay. Now I am expecting a difficult period, in which I have to be aware of the risk of infection and in which I must remain with the leg constantly elevated. Then there will come a second key period, when I will be able to start my rehabilitation and, with support on the leg, will be able to start to walk around with crutches.

2. Dr. Buzzi talked about a rehabilitation period of about five or six months, what do you think? Read more

Vale is out

The crash Rossi had yesterday during the practice session left him with a broken tibia and fibula of the right leg, he was operated on for around 3 hours and the surgery was a success…the doctors used Spinal Block (epidural) insted of general anesthesia which means that Rossi was awake during the surgery and can see and hear all the cutting and drilling to his leg but without feeling any pain.

The bad news is that he will be out of the track for around 5 month, so today’s race at Mugello will be with out Rossi.

Race start at 2:30pm on Jazeera Sport +3.

What a start for the season, it was a really thrilling race yesterday at Losail…kept it us on our toes from lap one.

The Doctor claims the podium, but the star was Lorenzo…this dude is aggressive…he is the” No Guts…No Glory” type of guy.
