Q&A on Vale
June 11, 2010 · Leave a Comment
Q&A with Yamaha Motor Racing managing director Lin Jarvis, team manager Davide Brivio, Yamaha boss Lin Jarvis, Rossi’s surgeon Dr. Buzzi and Yamaha communications manager William Favero.
1. What caused the accident? Was it rider error or a bike/tyre issue?
Davide Brivio, Fiat Yamaha Team Manager, Valentino Rossi’s crew: “Valentino was on his first flying lap with new hard tyres. At ‘Arrabbiata 2′ Valentino slowed down to let another rider pass, because he was following him. When Valentino opened the throttle again at ‘Biondetti’, the first corner on the left, having ridden for about a quarter of the track at a very low speed, the rear tyre had cooled down and lost grip suddenly, causing the crash. When Valentino lost the rear of the bike his speed was approximately 180kph and when he hit the ground it was approximately 150kph.”
2. What were Valentino’s exact injuries? (more…)

The next big thing

Apple just launched the iPad, the device is just a bigger iPhone but without the phone, but with 3G connection that we can use to place VOIP calls, a lot of people my have been disappointed or was expecting something much more interesting than just a bigger iPod\iPhone, but i was expecting this since the day i got addicted to my iPhone, the damn thing dosn’t leave my hand..it goes to all the places i go to especially the toilet in the morning, either to listen to music while showering or to check and answer emails while….
I can conduct around 70% of my office work communication using my iPhone but at so many occasions i wished it had a bigger screen, faster processor, better battery life, and the ability to save files and open\play different media formats, the same goes for my laptop i always wanted a faster, lighter 12 inch Mac with better battery life -am still using my 12″ PB G4-.
With the new iPad i believe i can do it all, and i very much belive its going to be the next and only business\entertainment gadget one will ever need…come to think of it at the office most of us use their computers for email, internet, and socializing, at home we use our laptops for the same plus watching movie, listing to music, and gaming, the iPad will do all that and maybe more, so i guess we’ll soon say goodbye to our laptops or we’ll just use them edit home movies.

Endless transformations by the new Ducati Multistrada 1200.
A classic fight
October 18, 2009 · 2 Comments
Today’s race at Phillip Island was a classic, Stoner was in top physical condition giving the spectates a show to remember with his high speed slides, Rossi was trying every trick in the book to bypass him but the Australian was too fast and maintained the lead all the way to the checker flag.
Lorenzo crashed out at turn one of the first lap after touching Nicky Hayden bike, he was lucky to escape the crash with only a small injury to his pinky.

The legend to be
October 4, 2009 · 1 Comment
With today’s win Jorge Lorenzo reduces the gap to 18 points between him and Rossi, although Rossi had some technical issues with the bike, Lorenzo gave us a great race today, Stoner was back in shap and finished second which is very good for someone that has been sick and away from the track for a while.
Lorenzo’s character and racing style is developing race by race, he still did not develop the charisma of the Doctor, but i feel he will get there and even out run him.

The Flying Donkey
September 6, 2009 · Leave a Comment
Dani Pedrosa gave us the usual bullet start today at Misano, but unfortntly he couldn’t maintain the lead because of Rossi’s pressure and some technical problems with his Honda engine -he said its misfiring-.
This is when Rossi came for revenge and he led the race all the way to the flag, even Lorinzo could not come near, Rossi had a new helmet today with a Donkey face on it….in italy -just like in the Arab world – if someone makes a mistake they call him a donkey, and after the mistake Rossi did last week which costed him the race he earned name was called a donkey but he decided to show everyone that this donkey can fly!!!

The race at Indianapolis was a bit different, the competition was intense from the start but later on Pedrosa crashed, Rossi followed and the absence of Stoner left Lorenzo leading the race all the way to the checker flag.
The track was a bit tricky and had a lot of long, sharp and high speed curves..quit a few riders crashed..some managed to continue others -like Rossi- decided to quit.
Riders points: Rossi 212, Lorenzo 187, Stoner 150, Pedrosa 141 Detailed results

A first for Aprilia
July 27, 2009 · 4 Comments
Biaggi on the Aprilia scored his first win of the season in race one at Brno, It was also Aprilia’s first win in the category since 2001, Biaggi cruised to finish line after Spies and Fabrizio were eliminated when Fabrizio crashed taking down Spies down with him, Troy Corser on the S1000RR led the opening two laps, while Xaus on the same bike crashed out on the first lap.
In race two Spies led towards his eleventh win of the season, but it wasn’t easy as he had to keep Biaggi at bay, Biaggi took second, third went to Fabrizio.

Sachsenring track is a very narrow track and its straits are very short, racers spend around 90% of the time with their knee down…any race on that track is really fun to watch.
Stoner was back in shape and led the race for a while, but the doctor had a couple of surprises for both Stoner and Lorenzo..for a while i thought Lorenzo would claim the podium but us usual the doctor is always there and ready to take advantage of the slightest miscalculation made by any of the racers.
