MOTOGP-QATAR-GRAND PRIX

The 2013 MotoGP opening round in Qatar yesterday was really fun to watch, i enjoyed all 3 races -Moto3, Moto2, MotoGP- I can’t really recall when was the last time i enjoyed the 3 categories. Rossi surprised us with his comeback, but we still need to see how will he perform against Lorenzo.

I’am guessing the coming races will be very interesting, the only issue is finding the time to watch all 3 categories.

Musical Chairs

Today race was more of a Musical Chairs game, riders were going down one by one because of  rain…Rossi was the first to go down and he took Stoner with him when he was performing a late breaking maneuver but he went down as soon as he let go of the break, unlike stoner he managed to ride the bike again and finish 5th !!

Simoncelli lead most of the race and just when we thought he’s gona win he went down at a slow curve, Lorenzo was behind him and kept a steady pace until he claimed the race.

 

The New Green

I have been asked many times about the new Kawasaki ZX10-R, but all i could say was that Kawasaki USED to “Let the good times roll”….especially that they issued a technical recall on the ZX10-R a month after it the launch.

I did not get an invitation to the launch at Lossil in Qatar last Nov, so i haven’t ridden the green yet, and i can only quote whatever is circulating around the net and what the journalists that rode it has to say.

MCN did a group test last week between the ZX-10R, S1000RR, Honda Fireblade, Yamaha R1 and Suzuki GSX-R1000, and the above video should summarize it.

Enjoy.

This may sound a repetition of the previous post.

SWA -Supertest World Association- is an organization that runs the world biggest track test with motorcycle journalists from all around the world to compare the latest bikes in the market.

This year test took place in Greece, with the absence of Ducati, KTM and Bimota, the final ranking -based on lap times, dyno power and torque measurements, comfort, price/performance ratio- was as follows:

1-BMW S1000RR (with distinction)
2-APRILIA RSV4
3-MV AGUSTA F4 1000
4-KAWASAKI ZX-10R
5-SUZUKI GSX-R 1000
6-YAMAHA YZF R1
7-HONDA CBR1000RR

2010 is the year of the European manufacturers’, as they were the ones with a lot of cash during the global recession and continued to feast us with new products while the Japanese went into hibernation.

Motorcycle of the Year BMW S1000RR
Best Sportbike BMW S1000RR
Best Standard Kawasaki Z1000
Best Touring BMW R1200RT
Best Sport-Tourer Ducati Multistrada
Best On/Off Road BMW F800GS
Best Off-Road Yamaha YZ450F

Finally, and in my humble opinion the most beautiful sport bike Aprilia RSV4.

Leading from the back

Lorenzo may have won the championship today but the Dr. definitely won the race, and am sure Rossi will not stop amusing us the final 3 rounds of season.

Personally i can’t wait for the 2011 season to see Rossi competing from on top of the Ducati.

Easy win for Lorenzo

It was a very fast and entertaining race yesterday at Laguna Seca, it kicked off with the trademark start by Pedrosa from the second row all the way to leading the race.

Both Lorenzo and Pedrosa were pushing it to the limit until Pedrosa crashed, and Lorenzo cruised to the checker flag, we were hopping to witness a fight between Rossi and Stoner but the gab was a bit big, on the other hand Rossi fought well for the 3rd position which was very entertaining.
