  • KONICA MINOLTA Honda Taken out of the Chinese GP
    Shanghai, China, Sunday 6th May, 2007 KONICA MINOLTA Honda taken out of the Chinese GP KONICA MINOLTA Honda suffered their first DNF of the season so far in the Chinese GP today, following an early-race clash between Shinya Nakano and Tech 3 Yamaha’s Makoto Tamada. The incident happened towards the end of the third lap at the tight hairpin after the long back straight. It appeared that Tamada missed his braking point and lost the front of his Yamaha M1 unfortunately taking Nakano down with him. Thankfully neither rider was injured in the crash. Shinya had made a solid start from 10th on the grid and had climbed to eighth on the first lap before dropping back to 10th. Casey Stoner won the race on the Bridgestone-shod Ducati from Valentino Rossi (Yamaha) and John Hopkins (Suzuki). The Australian now leads the championship by an increased margin. The first Michelin-shod Honda home was Repsol Honda’s Dani Pedrosa, who won last year’s race. Gianluca Montiron – Team Manager KONICA MINOLTA Honda “This is racing and these things happen unfortunately. After a good start Shinya was battling with Chris Vermeulen (Suzuki) and then Makoto Tamada (Yamaha) before the incident happened. It seemed as if Makoto lost the front at the last hairpin and crashed, unfortunately for us Shinya was just in front of him and got taken down. I would like to say that from our time with Makoto as our rider for many years we know he’s a good, clean safe rider and this was just one of those things.

  • Valentino Rossi
    Valentino Rossi 1 Voorwoord Ik heb voor dit onderwerp gekozen omdat ik fan ben van Valentino Rossi. De grootse onder de motorcoureurs. Inleiding Mijn werkstuk gaat over Valentino Rossi. Hij komt uit Italië en is geboren op 16 februari 1979 en is nu 29 jaar oud . Hij is motorcoureur geworden en rijdt in de motoGP. En rijd nu op een Yamaha yzr-m1en rijdt altijd met nummer 46. Valentino Rossi op de Honda RC211V van 2002 Hoofdstukken 1. Begin carrière 2. Behaalde resultaten 3. Weetjes over Valentino Rossi 4. Bronnen 2 Begin carrière Valentino's 1e contact met de motorfiets was op 2-jarige leeftijd, zijn moeder Stefania vond dit gevaarlijk, waardoor vader Graziano de motorfiets verving voor een go-kart. Maar het ging nooit snel genoeg voor de Rossi-familie, dus werd de 60 cc kartmotor vervangen voor een 100 cc nationaal kartmotor voor de toen 5- jarige Valentino. Ondanks zijn interesse in zijn gitaar en voetballen, was Valentino niet geïnteresseerd in school en studeren. Moeder Stefania wilde het liefst dat Valentino voetballer werd, maar Valentino was meer geïnteresseerd in gravel pits en motorraces. Vader Graziano probeerde 1 jaar voordat Valentino, toen 9 jaar, legaal aan de go-kart deel mocht nemen, al een juniorkartlicentie te krijgen, maar dit mislukte. In 1990 won hij met 9 overwinningen het regionale Kart Kampioenschap. In 1991 ging hij ook op minibikes rijden en won hij 16 races in de regionale minibikewedstrijden. Maar omdat minibikesracen voor de lol was, ging hij toch door met karten en werd hij 5e in het Nationaal Kart Kampioenschap in Parma.
