Lorenzo looking for rostrum return at Motegi

The Championship leader is in a resolute mood ahead of the Grand Prix of Japan and outlined his aims in the pre-event press conference on Thursday.

Championship leader Jorge Lorenzo heads to Motegi for this weekend's Grand Prix of Japan determined to get back on the rostrum, after a fourth place last time out at Aragón ended the Mallorcan's run of consecutive podium finishes that started with second place in the season opener at Qatar.

Lorenzo still holds a 56-point advantage over Dani Pedrosa at the top of the Championship standings heading into this weekend's race, which was postponed back in April due to the eruption of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano in Iceland. The Fiat Yamaha rider took one of his four wins last season at Motegi and is keen to do well in Yamaha's home race, as he looks to defend his position at the top of the standings.

"I'm not comfortable, but my position in the Championship is good," declared Lorenzo during Thursday’s press conference at Motegi. "We're not in the best shape technically; we have a little disadvantage in terms of power, but the latest evolution engine should improve things. I am thinking about the Championship, so I must keep going fast but I must also be prudent, calculating and not doing any crazy things. This weekend I hope to be able to fight for the podium, and maybe even for the victory."

Brawn: Schumacher will be back in 2011

Seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher, reigning constructor’s champions Brawn GP, technical whizz Ross Brawn and the might of German car giant Mercedes-Benz. The ingredients for a stunning 2010 season were all present and correct when the Mercedes GP launched in Stuttgart back in the January.

Nine months later, however, and Mercedes's dream has faltered and Schumacher’s comeback is in tatters. Currently tenth in the standings, with just 46 points, the veteran German's fall from grace has led some to question whether he will last the season, let alone be back in the cockpit competing next year. But Mercedes team principal Ross Brawn is confident Schumacher will race in 2011.

“Michael is disappointed, of course,” Brawn told Formula1.com. “Still he is enjoying the challenge very much. He definitely doesn’t come to a race wishing to be somewhere else. He wants to work with the engineers, wants to find solutions and is extremely motivated. He is enjoying racing.

"Of course he’s also a bit frustrated that his performance isn’t better. But I tell you, Michael is a very ambitious person and he didn’t win seven titles because he’s quick to capitulate. What sense would it make at that stage of his comeback to pack in his job? He’s not going to do it - be sure of that!”

Although previously famed for his ability to get the most out of tyres, one of the major stumbling blocks for Schumacher this season has been Bridgestone’s 2010-spec rubber. Although Brawn admits the 91-time Grand Prix winner’s driving style does not suit this year’s Bridgestones, he believes the change to new tyre supplier, Pirelli, next season could help matters.

Rossi ready for tough test on body at Motegi

The reigning World Champion knows that the demands of the circuit will push his physical condition to its limit during the Grand Prix of the Japan this weekend, but is prepared for the challenge.

Valentino Rossi is steeling himself for another hard weekend on his body as he prepares for the Grand Prix of Japan, where the right-handed Motegi circuit will place added demands on his recovering shoulder. The Fiat Yamaha rider explained that the leg he broke in June is now the lesser of his problems, with his shoulder the main factor in his ability to push hard.

“The leg is now almost back to normal again – I have even started running – but the shoulder is a problem and we know now that this is not going to change until we have time to treat it properly,” said Rossi, who has fond recollections of the Japanese circuit.

“I have some great memories from Motegi, especially winning the Championship in 2008, but I am expecting this weekend to be quite difficult on my body,” continued Rossi, who is also looking forward to the rounds in Malaysia and Australia which follow on consecutive weekends. “We have a hard three weeks ahead but after this race two of my best tracks are coming up, and I am hoping for some good results. We will do our best and see what happens!"

Rossi’s Team Manager Davide Brivio returns to the paddock this weekend having missed the previous round at Aragón – where Rossi placed sixth – due to a back problem, and he hopes that the previous good showing of the M1 at Motegi (Rossi won in 2008 and team-mate Jorge Lorenzo won last year) bodes well for his rider.

He said: "Valentino is understandably disappointed that he isn't in as good physical shape as he had hoped, and this is a pity for him because the leg is really quite good now! Aragón was hard on him but generally our bike goes well at Motegi so we hope it will be better, even if the nature of the track will still be hard on him.”

“This run of races is tough on everyone but we will be working as hard as ever and hoping for some good results as we head towards the final races,” concluded Brivio.

SPECIFY Yamaha Scorpio NEW generation

Yamaha New Scorpio 2010 Pictures

Yamaha New Scorpio 2010

Not even one month to introduce Byson, PT Yamaha Motor Kencana Indonesia (YMKI) will likely spawn a new sport bike again next week.
Yes, what else if not a Yamaha Scorpio. Considering now YMKI as motorcycle manufacturer Yamaha has three heroes of motor sport, V-Ixion, Byson, and Scorpio.
For V-Ixion has undergone minor changes (facelift) earlier this year, then last month followed by the presence of Byson. So the untapped overhaul of YMKI not nothing but the Yamaha Scorpio.
"21 September next week we will introduce to the media what the new Scorpio," explained PR & Corporate Communication Head YMKI Indra Dwi Sunda when contacted Legal, Friday (09/17/2010).
According to him, Scorpio is worth the time to experience the changes. "As long as it's most just replace the striping, well now quite significant changes," he said.
But he refused to divulge further details on the specifications of the latest generation Yamaha Scorpio is any price that would be pegged YMKI. "Just wait for later," chortled.
Some sources say, most gress Yamaha Scorpio is going to adopting the design of the Yamaha Fazer 250 2011 model that exists in India.
The difference compared to the previous Scorpio in the design of the headlights that are no longer round, the design of a large tank, and the body side and stoplamp that looks more sporty.
While there has been no leak to the engine if YMKI innards will also remodel this brand-new Scorpio. But clearly the legs will be designed more sturdy like Byson.

MODIFIKASI Yamaha YZF-R1 LE

After Valentino Rossi clinched his MotoGP world for the seventh time in the race at Sepang Circuit last week, certainly a lot of motor sport enthusiast who wants to look like a bike owned by The Doctor.

But for those who have more funds need not modify their bikes to match Yamaha's search numbered 46, because they could directly order the YZF-R1 LE.

However, this limited edition bike is not entirely the same as mounts Rossi who took him into the most prestigious motor racing champion in the world. The reason, YZF-R1 LE is not a motor racing, but the motor for highway, so that several devices adapted for use on the highway, such as mirrors, lights sein, headlights and taillights.

Likewise with the muffler. If Rossi's exhaust gas is only one hidden behind the seat. While the YZ-F R1 LE has two triangular exhaust that is placed on the side under the seat. In order not to exhaust heat on pillion, Yamaha provide security in the form of insulating plastic that was wrapped in black.

Do not be disappointed once, because it looked from the front or side, hang out is not much different motor racing driver with the birth of Urbino, Italy, that. Especially the design and style fairing. Fiat's name printed on it, also sponsors the Fiat Yamaha team, namely Petronas, also posted at the bottom of the fairing.

Besides style, other similar technology on this bike course referring to Rossi's motorcycle. So, if searched YZF-R1 LE it feels just like riding a bike numbered 46 was phenomenal. If it were so wait no more. Come search 1.000cc motor 6 speed transmission is on the highway, certainly a lot of eyes will glance at your ride.

Also the tank is not blue color motor

really like Rossi's, because the bottom of gas tank that intersect with a delta there is a kind of protective plastic box black.

Intense MotoGP run-in begins with Motegi

A run of three back-to-back races commences in Japan as the 2010 MotoGP World Championship enters its final stage with Jorge Lorenzo and Dani Pedrosa continuing their battle.

Just over five months on from its original scheduled date the Grand Prix of Japan will take place this weekend having been postponed back in April due to the Icelandic volcano eruption. Dani Pedrosa will be aiming to mount his own disruptive course as the 2010 campaign enters an intense run-in of the final five rounds, and he is now the only rider who can stop Jorge Lorenzo claiming a debut premier class title.

Lorenzo enters the weekend 56 points ahead of Pedrosa and with the experience of victory at Motegi last year, but the Repsol Honda rider is proving to be a stern obstacle in the fight for the 2010 title. Last time out at Aragón was the first time Lorenzo had not featured on the podium this season, and whilst fourth position in the race was by no means a poor result the recuperation of 17 points on the leader by Pedrosa over the last three rounds has signalled that this year’s Championship is far from decided.

Pedrosa has featured on the third step of the podium at the Japanese track for the previous two years and is on a hot current run of form as he and his factory RC212V remain consistent in their production of results. Both he and Lorenzo have 12 premier class career victories to their names now, another added competitive edge to what has recently developed into an intriguing pitting of wits against one another.

Unlucky lewis is not to blame

McLAREN chief Martin Whitmarsh has leaped to the defence of Lewis Hamilton following the ex-champ's second shunt in two races.

Whitmarsh insisted Hamilton did nothing wrong in his attempted pass of Red Bull's Mark Webber in the Singapore Grand Prix.

Hamilton was clipped by Webber after nudging ahead on the outside of Turn Seven. The resulting damage put the Brit out of the race.

Hamilton, who had to retire after colliding with Felipe Massa's Ferrari in the previous race at Monza, immediately knew he had suffered another major blow in his title challenge.

And he threw his steering wheel out of the cockpit in disgust.

Whitmarsh conceded some critics would take a pop at Hamilton for having two incidents on the trot.

But he said of the Singapore shunt: "I think Lewis was very unlucky.

"If you look at what happened he did not make a late lunge.

"We can get heated about blame but I think Mark has got to race as well.

"The important thing from my perspective was that from Lewis it was not a desperate overtaking manoeuvre, it was a solid overtaking manoeuvre.

"Whenever you overtake in any form of motor racing there is a degree of risk. And he was unlucky it did not come off this time."

A steward's inquiry was opened into the incident but concluded no further action would be taken.

Webber escaped unscathed and went on to finish third.

Well, for this motorized bicycle Agus also makes parts such as the sack. Certainly for the placement of batteries and other ignition components. "With such a place made, will look neater and stay within the concept of a bicycle," he continued.
Agus admitted some difficulty when installing rims. "Because we use the size of 21 inches, of course, need also to test the tire can rotate freely without friction with body parts," the story of strong men speak with a certain dialect of Java this. To arm all of them also made new.
So also when we look at the front wheels. It appears there was a kind of brake at the top of the rim like a bicycle brake. Complete with canvas ready to pinch if the brake lever when depressed. And that's just sort of bike styles.
Continue to rely on actual brake system for front disc brake. "Because the motor is fixed, can be brought to the street. It is not ornamental," Agus cap.
