lorenzo forced stoner to wait a long time

Battle for the 2011 MotoGP world championship more exciting, following the results of "unexpected" at the Motegi Circuit, Japan, on Sunday (10.02.11). Casey Stoner, who appeared dominant during this weekend, just reaping the results are less good, due to finish at number three. Australian rider was unable to compete with his teammate at Repsol Honda, Dani Pedrosa and Yamaha team's closest rival, Jorge Lorenzo.

Stoner is very difavorikan menenangi race at the circuit last season when he was with Ducati conquered. How not very convincing record of his time since the first free practice to qualifying, so it took pole position. The worst outcome is in second position during the second free practice.

But during the race, Stoner made a mistake when entering the fourth lap. He did not get the braking point when going into bend 11, thus slipping through the gravel. Luckily, the 2007 world champion appeared very calm. He does not force yourself to swing to the right, and gave up his position usurped by Pedrosa and Lorenzo.

Although it had slumped to number seven on his return to track racing, Stoner managed to improve his position. One by one rider in front can be conquered, and eventually finished third. Stoner also maintain a record is always on the podium during the 2011 season, except for failures due to an accident at Jerez in the second series.

Small errors Stoner, Lorenzo plus charming performance, making competition for the crown of world champion again exclaimed. If prior to this series-15 Stoner 44 points ahead, so now they are "only" within 40 numbers, where Stoner was still firmly on top of the standings with a total of 300 points, followed by Lorenzo with 260 points.

Well, thus the last three series will be very crucial, because the contested points, the maximum is 75. Stoner remains in an excellent position to win both world titles in the premier class, because he only needs 35 more points to snatch the championship crown last year at the head of Lorenzo.

Now, with the performance of Honda's very intriguing, it is not excessive if Stoner back into the main favorite to win there. 10 pole position plus eight wins and 14 podium finishes throughout 2011, an indication that he will realize the victory.

However, Lorenzo is also still have a chance. If it can continue to finish ahead of Stoner, is not impossible that the former double world champion 250cc class this will force the fight lasted until the last series in Valencia, 6 November.

I saved the dishes in the official and repeated in the race.

The start was not comfortable and I found no improvement Simoncelli positions and close that I could even beat me and beat him again after an error. It was a start which will not let you pick up the pace. Nevertheless, little by little I was able to do it and I stuck to Ben Spies, who was making a great career and also paid grip problems. I am pleased with the outcome and have shot half a second faster than the officers, but obviously I would have liked to aim higher.

Now we go to Japan, Yamaha's home. At the end we will, despite all the controversy in recent months after the disaster in Fukushima. It is a key moment of the season because it is one of my last options continue to aspire to the title. I'll be ready!

But first I have a little work. This week we'll come to an event sponsor X-LITE-staff-at Franciacorta, Italy, and other sponsor-ROCKSTAR-another in Barcelona. Oh, and I will run the 24 Hours with Difisa Racing team this weekend. I have wanted to enjoy that excitement with my mates Ricky Cardis, Jose Manuel de los Milagros and Alvaro Fontes.

Do not get me wrong, I do not say it was an easy win. Quite the contrary. I needed 13 runs to win from start to finish. But I thought I would move Casey at some point, which would have changed a bit the movie and had become a duel, mano a mano.

It's my third win of the season, but overall I am still far from Casey. We have recovered nine points and now we're going to Aragon we stand at 35 points. I hope this year is Motorland talisman, I need it. I have wanted to come and see people in my fan club. Last year I was not right with them, the results made me angry. So I owe you one.

Today we tested the 1000cc at Misano. The feelings are still good, but there is much work ahead. Both Ben and I have shot all day with the new Yamaha in the second practice we do. This evening we left by car to Milan for tomorrow visited the offices of Yamaha with Wayne Rainey, which will make it a special day. "

lorenzo's note : Graining DAMN!

I have two races to forget. Because of some bugs we are choices of title. But there are still many to attempt a comeback. I have confidence and hope is the last to be lost.

Casey is doing a flawless season. Has not committed a single mistake in the race and the only zero accumulated was to Jerez, where Rossi pulled. Otherwise have been scored in all.

In Indy was again unstoppable. Neither the asphalt that we have all been able to stop complaining. I was hoping to be ahead in the race, but the tires held up slightly, about five laps. The damn graining (consumption of the tire) has turned to dust. As we talked with the team, was fourth at the most one could hope for. The other hope was that Ben Casey won, but problems forced him out is making a big comeback.

Now we are 44 points apart. the new attempt to cut begins this weekend. I'm going to San Marino, bypassing the home. I hope to recover well until Friday.

On Thursday I go back to the circuit. First I have an event in my personal sponsor Rimini Hot Wheels and then the interviews and press conference at Misano. This time I have no special helmet and Yamaha brings the colors red and white.
I hope you have better luck without it. Misano I like, I have gotten great results in all categories, so be ready for battle.

A greeting
