Sylvain Guintoli: the Anglicised Frenchman Sylvain Guintoli: the Anglicised Frenchman On the eve of this weekend’s fifth round of the World Superbike Championship at Donington Park we caught up with French rider Sylvain Guintoli who, as a long-time resident of Britain, views the event in Leicestershire as a second home race after Magny-Cours. Sylvain, you’ve lived in England for several years now and also have an English wife, Caroline. How has that transition affected you? I would say that my whole life revolves around England. I spoke very little English upon moving here but quickly learnt and adapted. I love the English mentality in both their personal and professional lives. It’s a way of life that I enjoy and it suits me very well. Caroline and I married in 2006 and have only ever lived in England along with our three children. My wife doesn’t work and instead takes care of them and me, so perhaps it’s better to say she has four children because I consider myself one of them! Actually, we are expecting our fourth child in November. This weekend’s World Superbike round at Donington Park is of particular importance to you. Do you consider it a home event? Yes, it is a very special event for me. Firstly, I only live 20 minutes away by bike from the circuit so consider myself ‘at home’. It’s also given me some unforgettable memories: in 2003 I met my wife there, which must have been a sign. Less pleasant was my accident in 2009 when I sustained the most severe injuries of my career during a British Superbike round. I could not ride for several months. It was a difficult time and prompted me to ask a lot of questions about the future. But today I am happy to be back fighting on the track, especially against the British riders. There are a lot in World Superbikes this year and I have a good relationship with all of them. It will be even more fun to race against them at Donington Park because, while I consider it my home, they view me as a Frenchman. They’re keen to perform in front of their fans but it’s the same for me! So it's very exciting and a big challenge. I also consider Magny-Cours’ round in October a home race. I guess I'm lucky to have two national events, so to speak. Talking of Magny-Cours, is it a key date personally during your season? Of course! It’s important for me to do well in front of the French public and I’m looking forward to it! I would love to produce a strong performance there. Unlike 2012 this season’s final round doesn’t take place at the circuit, but I will be just as excited to be riding in France again. I had not competed at Magny-Cours for 10 years when I returned in 2010. It was a special feeling that took me back to my days racing in the French championship. So much had happened in between. I really like the circuit, enjoy racing there and fighting for the best positions. I would be so proud to finish on the podium, win or even celebrate securing the title there. I'm sure it will be a great event this year. So it sounds like you’ve thought about clinching the title at Magny-Cours? That’s still a long way off. At the moment I’m not putting any pressure on myself regarding the title and am taking the races one at a time. It’s important to score points at each event, finish on the podium if possible and keep doing what you can. This is a dual strategy of course because you must always fight as hard as possible. I’m up for the challenge but won’t take any reckless risks that would prevent me from scoring points. Naturally, this attitude is based on winning the championship and I will do everything to make that happen, but for the moment the season is still long. The team and I share the same objective: to do our best to make the podium and win races. If we do that the title will follow. I’m happy because I have a good motorcycle; the Aprilia RSV4 is amazing and really powerful. There is a very good relationship with the team and I am privileged to be working with highly skilled people who previously helped Max Biaggi to win the crown. I’m very happy this year. World Superbike Championship points (after four rounds): 1. Sylvain Guintoli (Aprilia) 137 points 2. Eugene Laverty (Aprilia) 124 3. Tom Sykes (Kawasaki) 119 4. Marco Melandri (BMW) 96 5.

  • BORN INTO RACING 60S and 70S
    THE APRILIA SUCCESS STORY BORN INTO RACING With 294 Grand Prix races won in Road Racing World Championship, Aprilia holds the record for the most wins of any European manufacturer in the history of maximum motorcycle competition. These are joined by an impressive 54 world titles: 38 in Road Racing World Championship (20 in 125 and 18 in 250), 7 in Superbike (Rider and Manufacturer double win in 2010, 2012 and 2014, manufacturers in 2013) and 9 in Off Road disciplines (7 in Supermoto and 2 in Trial). In December 2004 Aprilia becomes part of the Piaggio Group which, with the reorganisation of the Noale Racing Division, takes the Veneto-based brand to victories in World Championship Motorcycle Racing and broadens the horizons of sport activity: from the return to the off road discipline, world rally to the début – in 2009 – of the Aprilia RSV4 in World Superbike. During the same period Aprilia has also accumulated 28 World Titles and a countless collection of European and national titles. Every weekend, all over the world, Aprilia motorcycles take to the track on international and local circuits, holding high the honour of Italian and European motorcycling, feeding the biker's desire to race and raising up young riders destined to enter into the world championship world. 60s and 70s Aprilia begins manufacturing motorcycles at the end of the 60's and already in 1970 produces a motocross "fifty" which would evolve into a 125, until arriving at the first competition motocross bike in the mid 70's. After the début in the Motocross sport in 1975, Aprilia enters World Championship Motorcycle Racing to challenge the unbeatable Japanese in the extremely competitive 250 class.

  • Superbike, Doppio Laverty in Turchia | 1
    Superbike, doppio Laverty in Turchia | 1 Eugene Laverty e la sua Aprilia portano a casa una prestigiosa doppietta sul nuovo circuito di Istanbul. Il suo compagno Sylvain Guintoli agguanta un quarto e terzo posto mentre il leader di classifica Tom Sykes (Kawasaki Racing Team) sale sul terzo gradino del podio in gara 1 migliorandosi di un piazzamento in gara 2. Buona anche la prestazione di Marco Melandri (BMW Motorrad GoldBet SBK) grazie al secondo posto di gara 1 e al quarto di gara 2. Resta molto corta e incerta la classifica generale, che vede al comando sempre l’inglese della Kawasaki, che consolida un pochino la sua leadership, con 323 punti, sette in più di Guintoli, a quota 315, mentre risale prepotentemente Laverty, che grazie alla doppietta di Istanbul sale a 297 punti. Resta in corsa anche Marco Melandri, distante 33 punti dal leader, quando mancano ancora sei gare al termine della stagione, con 150 punti ancora in palio. Le soluzioni Superbike e Supersport che Pirelli ha progettato per affrontare l’Intercity Istanbul Park hanno centrato l’obiettivo prefissato: in entrambe le classi infatti i piloti hanno completato le gare senza problemi grazie anche alla costanza di prestazioni dimostrata dagli pneumatici Pirelli. Le condizioni del circuito e quelle metereologiche non hanno sicuramente facilitato le cose: la pista completamente sporca nella giornata di venerdì e le prove del sabato caratterizzate dall’acqua non hanno infatti permesso a team e piloti di effettuare long run con le nuove soluzioni portate da Pirelli costringendoli a scendere in griglia oggi con l’incognita gomme.
