The numerous heavy braking points, especially those that are downhill, demanding nature. Run one month later this year, in the height of European summer, track demand a strong front tyre for good braking stability, whilst the many high speed corners temperature will potentially play even more of an important role. With tyre wear likely to be require good stability and shoulder grip from the rear tyre. Around the left-handers, this is higher with the increased temperature, bike setup and riding style must be optimised to use where our asymmetric rear slicks will be of particular benefit. Top speed is one of the highest the tyres in the most efficient way. This year we have selected asymmetric rear slick tyres of the season and this puts significant strain on the centre section of the tyres so a strong for Mugello to improve warm-up performance on the left side and give the riders a more carcass and construction are required for straight-line stability. consistent feeling throughout the lap through the nine right-hand corners and the six lefts. tEamS anD riDErS teAMs AnD riDers orDer BAseD on 2010 teAM cHAMpionsHip position. *Most recent perforMAnce listeD. maChinE: yamaha yZr-M1 maChinE: Honda RC212v yamaha faCtory raCing Web: www.yamaha-racing.com rEpSol honDa tEam Web: www.hondaproracing.com Jorge lorenzo Bike number 1 Dani pedrosa Bike number 26 Age: 24 DOB: 4/5/1987 Nationality: Spanish Age: 25 DOB: 29/9/1985 Nationality: Spanish GP Debut: QAT08 (MotoGP) GP Starts: 59 (MotoGP) GP Debut: SPA06 (MotoGP) GP Starts: 88 (MotoGP) Wins: 15 Poles: 17 Fastest laps: 9 Podiums: 38 Points: 942 Wins: 13 Poles: 17 Fastest laps: 24 Podiums: 50 Points: 1246 Best championship position: 1st (2010) Best championship position: 2nd (2010*) Ben Spies Bike number 11 andrea Dovizioso Bike number 4 Age: 27 DOB: 11/7/1984 Nationality: American Age: 25 DOB: 23/3/1986 Nationality: Italian GP Debut: GBR08 (MotoGP) GP Starts: 28 (MotoGP) GP Debut: QAT08 (MotoGP) GP Starts: 60 (MotoGP) Wins: 1 Poles: 1 Fastest laps: 1 Podiums: 4 Points: 266 Wins: 1 Poles: 1 Fastest laps: 1 Podiums: 12 Points: 635 Best championship position: 6th (2010) Best championship position: 5th (2010*) Casey Stoner Bike number 27 maChinE: Ducati Desmosedici GP11 Age: 25 DOB: 16/10/1985 Nationality: Australian DuCati tEam Web: www.ducati.com GP Debut: SPA06 (MotoGP) GP Starts: 90 (MotoGP) Wins: 27 Poles: 26 Fastest laps: 22 Podiums: 49 Points: 1347 valentino rossi Bike number 46 Best championship position: 1st (2007) Age: 32 DOB: 16/2/1979 Nationality: Italian GP Debut: RSA00 (500cc) GP Starts: 188 (MotoGP/500cc) maChinE: yamaha yZr-M1 Wins: 79 Poles: 49 Fastest laps: 66 Podiums: 140 Points: 3398 monStEr YAMAHA tECh 3 Web: www.teamtech3.fr Best championship position: 1st (x7, 2009*) nicky hayden Bike number 69 Colin Edwards Bike number 5 Age: 29 DOB: 30/7/1981 Nationality: American Age: 37 DOB: 27/2/1974 Nationality: American GP Debut: JPN03 (MotoGP) GP Starts: 141 (MotoGP) GP Debut: JPN03 (MotoGP) GP Starts: 143 (MotoGP) Wins: 3 Poles: 5 Fastest laps: 7 Podiums: 28 Points: 1325 Wins: 0 Poles: 3 Fastest laps: 3 Podiums: 12 Points: 1100 Best championship position: 1st (2006) Best championship position: 4th (2005) Cal Crutchlow Bike number 35 maChinE: Honda RC212v Age: 25 DOB: 29/10/1985 Nationality: British San Carlo honDa grESini Web: www.gresiniracing.com GP Debut: QAT11 (MotoGP) GP Starts: 6 (MotoGP) Wins: 0 Poles:0 Fastest laps: 0 Podiums: 0 Points: 32 marco Simoncelli Bike number 58 Best championship position: NA Age: 24 DOB: 20/1/1987 Nationality: Italian GP Debut: QAT10 (MotoGP) GP Starts: 25 (MotoGP) maChinE: suzuki GSV-r Wins: 0 Poles: 2 Fastest laps: 0 Podiums: 0 Points: 164 rizla Suzuki motogp Web: www.rizla-suzuki-motogp.co.uk Best championship position: 8th (2010) hiroshi aoyama Bike number 7 Álvaro Bautista Bike number 19 Age: 29 DOB: 25/10/1981 Nationality: Japanese Age: 26 DOB: 21/11/1984 Nationality: Spanish GP Debut: QAT10 (MotoGP) GP Starts: 19 (MotoGP) GP Debut: QAT10 (MotoGP) GP Starts: 22 (MotoGP) Wins: 0 Poles: 0 Fastest laps: 0 Podiums: 0 Points: 104 Wins: 0 Poles: 0 Fastest laps: 0 Podiums: 0 Points: 112 Best championship position: 15th (2010) Best championship position: 13th (2010) maChinE: Honda RC212v maChinE: Ducati Desmosedici GP11 lCr honDa motogp Web: www.lcr.mc pramaC raCing tEam Web: www.pramacracing.com toni Elias Bike number 24 loris Capirossi Bike number 65 Age: 28 DOB: 26/03/1983 Nationality: Spanish Age: 38 DOB: 4/4/1973 Nationality: Italian GP Debut: SPA05 (MotoGP) GP Starts: 86 (MotoGP) GP Debut: AUS95 (500cc) GP Starts: 210 (MotoGP/500cc) Wins: 1 Poles: 0 Fastest laps: 3 Podiums: 6 Points: 535 Wins: 9 Poles: 13 Fastest laps: 10 Podiums: 42 Points: 1819 Best championship position: 7th (2009) Best championship position: 3rd (2006*) randy de puniet Bike number 14 Age: 30 DOB: 14/2/1981 Nationality: French GP Debut: SPA06 (MotoGP) GP Starts: 94 (MotoGP) Wins: 0 Poles: 0 Fastest laps: 0 Podiums: 2 Points: 438 top resultS on BriDgestonE tyres Best championship position: 9th (2010) riDEr titlES WinS 2nDs 3rDs PODiumS POLES maChinE: Ducati Desmosedici GP11 Web: www.teamaspar.net Valentino Rossi 2 17 12 11 40 10 mapfrE aSpar tEam Casey Stoner 1 27 9 12 48 25 héctor Barberá Bike number 8 Jorge Lorenzo 1 14 13 5 32 13 Age: 24 DOB: 2/11/1986 Nationality: Spanish Dani Pedrosa -

  • KONICA MINOLTA Honda Takes Hard-Fought Point at Scorching Catalunya
    Barcelona, Spain, Sunday 10th June 2007 KONICA MINOLTA Honda takes hard-fought point at scorching Catalunya KONICA MINOLTA Honda scored a point at today’s exciting Catalan MotoGP race. Ducati’s Casey Stoner took the win after a fierce battle with Yamaha’s Valentino Rossi and Repsol Honda’s Dani Pedrosa. KONICA MINOLTA Honda will now stay on at the Barcelona track and spend tomorrow looking at the data from this weekend to test further set-up and tyre combinations in a bid to improve their performance before heading to Donington Park for the British Grand Prix in two weeks’ time. Gianluca Montiron – Team Manager KONICA MINOLTA Honda “Today was a very exciting race and probably one of the best that I have ever seen! Perfect for the 112,000 fans watching at the circuit. Obviously for us we were expecting to get a better result today, but we suffered a little from the nature of the Montmeló circuit where the grip levels can change with the track temperature or conditions. When Shinya tried to push hard in the corners he would run wide, but tonight we can look at the data again as we are staying at the circuit to test tomorrow and I’m sure all the Team members will be working hard to find an improved set-up combination for our Honda RC212V. I think we are in a transitory period at the moment, where we have to work hard with the package we have, safe in the knowledge that our Technical Partners and the Team will find a solution for improved performance.

  • 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.
