San Marino GP podium 2011

Current Spanish World Champ JORGE LORENZO put in a great race to win & cut back a few points in the World title table against Australian Casey Stoner. The Yahama team has worked hard to find some extra power for their bike & today Lorenzo showed how good he & his bike were from the start. Spanish Rider DANI PEDROSA came in a grand second after overtaking a tired team-mate Casey Stoner who himself claimed post-race that he has not been recovering from his tiredness these last days & that effected him today.

The Australian still has a comfortable cushion in the World Championship points table & looks hot favourite with 5 remaining races. Said this, Lorenzo will take things race by race as anything can still happen.

The Frenchmen was asked post-race what he had done & Zarco responded "I dont know". Spaniard EFREN VAZQUEZ put in an excellent race & came in third.

NICO TEROL keeps looking ahead as he attempts to consolidate his WC table place in the next 5 races.

Maverick is proving to be the rookie of the year so far & looks destined towards bigger & better things. Current leader in the World Championships ladder, Spaniard Nicol Terol, did not race due to a fractured finger after falling yesterday in practice.

What made this race the more exciting was the wet conditions & to watch how young Maverick "mastered" the difficult conditions.

.2. Luis Salom (SP/Aprilia)
.3. Sergio Gadea (SP/Aprilia)

Simoncelli falls & takes Lorenzo

American rider B.Spies put in a magnificent race to win ahead of Casey Stoner & Italian Dovizioso in the GP category. However, the talking point & controversy occurred at the start & on the 5th curve when Italian Simoncelli did a dangerous & unnecessary manoeuvre to fall & take with him Spanish World Champion JORGE LORENZO.

Both got back on their bikes & Lorenzo put in a brave effort to come in 6th & thus lessen the damage for the World Champions points table, but the damage was done. Italian rider Simoncelli again is in the spot light with another exhibition of "careless" & "dangerous" riding which remembers his last incident with Dani Pederosa whom broke his collar bone.

SPANISH MOTO GP 2011 JEREZ | LORENZO - TEROL WIN THEIR CATEGORIES

A wet & slippery Jerez circuit made todays SPAIN MOTO GP 2011 in all catagories exciting, controversial & with Spanish riders doing overall well.

Secod place with 36 points is another Spaniard, Dani Pedrosa who came in second in  todays race infront of American Nicky Hayden who was third.

Rossi & Stoner incident 

Currently third on the World Championship classification table, Australian Casey Stoner did not finish due to a "race incident" with Italian Valentino Rossi when the latter slipped-slided in a risky curve manoeuvre that took out Stoner. Rossi managed to get back on his bike & he finished 5th, causing Stoners anger to explode even more after the Australian left  furious & latter applauded "ironcally" as Rossi rode pass.

Rossi visited Stoner in boxes after the race to excuse himself but Stoner looked extremely "pissed-off" as he did nt get any points due to Rossi´s very "aggressive riding" that cancelled him out & his chances to win todays race. 

Iannone wins Moto2

IANNONE won the Moto2 category ahead of Luthi with third place to Corsi. The best placed Spanish rider was SIMON who came in 6th in today's race.
