The move was made to try to improve safety by reducing cornering speeds, and in a marginal way for cost reasons; the winner was decided by bid.[1] Michelin, one of the two tyre suppliers in 2008, decided not to bid for the supply,[2] effectively declaring Bridgestone the winner, which was confirmed on 18 October 2008.[3] Bridgestone will be the sole tyre supplier from 2009 to 2011.

    The Yakhnich Motorsport team The team was established in 2007 and, at that time, consisted of two female riders, Nadezda Yakhnich and Nataliya Lyubimova. During their first season, the team performed successfully in the Russian Road Racing Championship, taking first and second places. By 2011 team riders were competing in challenging European championships (e.g. Campionato Italiano Velocità and the R6 Cup), with Vladimir Leonov taking third place overall in the CIV. In 2012 Yakhnich Motorsport competed in the Eni FIM World Supersport Championship. Vladimir Leonov rode well, taking 11th place overall. One year later, 2013, Yakhnich Motorsport won the Supersport World championship title with Sam Lowes, with Vladimir Leonov improving to take 10th place overall. In 2014 Yakhnich Motorsport raised their game yet again, becoming the official factory racing team «MV Agusta Reparto Corse-Yakhnich Motorsport» which competes in both the World Superbike and World Supersport championships. Claudio Corti (Superbike rider) He began competing seriously at the age of just 7. In 2004 he became vice-champion in the CIV Supersport class and the following year moved up to the European Superstock 600 cc Cup class, which he won. For four consecutive years he rode in the Super- stock 1000 class of the World Superbike Championship, where he was runner-up three times. In 2010 he moved to Moto2 where he joined Jules Cluzel as teammate. In 2013 he competed in Moto GP. In 2014, he is riding for the Yakhnich Motorsport MV Agusta Reparto Corse team.

    Hello All, Hope you all had a fantastic weekend and it was great to see, in some limited ways, football fans back into stadiums in England last Saturday afternoon. Below were the ‘sell out’ scenes at Carrow Road where Norwich left it late to rescue a point against Preston North End as Canaries fans were able to bask in the late summer sun in East Anglia. They were scenes played out at a few other grounds around the country and we all had our fingers crossed that if we could all behave in the next few weeks we would soon be able to start watching our favourite teams in person. The news that came on Tuesday afternoon when Boris Johnson spoke to the nation really came as a blow to us all and the chances of getting crowds into grounds this season now really looks a long way off. Did Brentford deliberately try and make their new stadium look like a Subbuteo Stadium? If they did, they nailed it as it hardly looks real when you are watching on television! I have to say having been a regular over the past few seasons to Brentford I would really miss my trips to the tight confines of the old ground and it will be interesting to see how the Bess perform in their home. Griffin Park smelt of Bovril whenever I stepped through its gates and I mean that in the very nicest of ways as it had the feel of an incredibly old football ground steeped in history. Yes, clubs need to move forward and progress but I can’t help but feel that Brentford has lost a part of their history.
