Sachsenring is a tight and twisty circuit, thus lead itself to a close racing.
Sections with low and high speed combination will need agility and stability (it's obviously difficult!) of the bikes.

Last season, Gibernau won with a tight gap against Rossi. He conquered Rossi just few corners before the chequered flag.

I hope this season will be much more interesting, not just Rossi and Gibernau's battle.

Here's the result of First free practice:

1. Rossi
2. Kenny Roberts
3. Hayden
4. Tamada
5. Gibernau
6. Checa
7. Edwards
8. Bayliss
9. Biaggi
10. Barros

well, to my opinion, it still better Rossi-Gibernau battle than Rossi-10 second penalty battle. Although the battle against the penalty does have its own drama

long time no see my good man argo.

anyway, as we have already know, Rossi will start at the second pole while Biaggi attain the pole position. Can the Roman Emperor make the best use of his pole position? I don't think so

argo · 18-07-2004, 08:38

Final Result:

1. Max Biaggi

2. Alex Barros
3. Nicky Hayden
4. Valentino Rossi
5. Colin Edwards
6. Makoto Tamada

Well.. congrats to Biaggi!!! Finally he beats Rossi.

Seemed like YAMAHA couldn't find a good suspension setting for Sachsenring. The track is twisty and a lil bumpy. Rossi, several times, couldn't control his bike and went wide in many corners.
Gibernau, Abe and Melandri were out of the race early.

Good race tho... good result and that's good for the whole competition.
Rider's standing is now going more tight than ever. Rossi, Biaggi and Gibernau are on top of the table.

next week: British MotoGP - Donington Park.

Obviously, Donington Park is typically similar to Sachsenring, tight and twisty circuit. It will be (as usual) a tough race, at least for the top three (Rossi, Gibernau and Biaggi).
Recently Rossi said that Gibernau is his best rival, but Biaggi has the fastest bike. Let's see how he cope with em both.

MotoGP is BACK!!! this is the tenth round of 16. Czech MotoGP at Brno Circuit.

Brno is a twisty circuit with freaky racing-line. even Valentino Rossi must work hard to win here.

Early in the qualifying sessions Yamaha and Ducati were dominant, but It was raining JUST before the final qulifying times. And Gibernau is certainly the best on wet track. Fortunately Rossi is in third position, still in the frontrow.

move to java? don't have to now coz tv7 is on and broadcasting in banjarmasin, yes baby, no need for satellite dish or cable tv

what this

mean? i assume that the guy just like coffe so much so he carries it everywhere. or you can read it as he is a coffe guy, which means that he is as black as a coffe

anyway, after a month of no slick tire, twisty circuit, crash or sliding, the MotoGP is back fpr our pleasure. and the good things is that it we wouldn't be confused to choose whether to watch seri-a or motogp.

even though there is a great disturbance in the force, i hope that rossi will win again - Master Yoda.

P.S. : hey go, tonite at 00.00 am the RCTI will play The Phantom Menace. I've never watch this part.

seemed like the battle is for Rossi, Gibernau and Biaggi. One Spaniard against two Italians.

to my opinion, after watching the Brno race, the battle will only include Rossi and Sete. Biaggi will definetely out of the battle, after seeing max being overtaken a few times. even though in the end max claim the 3rd spot, but it's just lucky that he claimed it.

argo · 27-08-2004, 06:30

Mad Max... among the top riders in MotoGP, He is the last..

.
Obviously he got the fastest bike on track, but his racing style is just too old-fashioned. I never saw him doing "rear wheel sliding", something that is very important nowadays. That's why he never win in twisty tracks.

While Rossi is still strugling with the YZR-M1, Gibernau is absolutely flying with his RC211V.

anyway, very interseting competition indeed.

argo · 04-09-2004, 11:54

Round eleven of the 2004 world championship. Estoril is a good track, there are many corners and chicanes, but the surface is a lil bit bumpy.
this season, Rossi crushed on a bumpy track in Brasilian MotoGP. Hope that he'll do it better in Estoril.

Earlier in the qualifying times, rain fell down quite heavy. but eventually sunshine brought the final qualifying on a fully-dry track.

So far this season, this is the easiest for The Doctor. Rossi won the Portuguese MotoGP quite easily, while Biaggi and Gibernau, his title rivals were unlucky. Biaggi crashed his front wheel onto Capirossi's and retired in the 1st lap, and Gibernau was held by Barros for the whole race.

Here's the complete result:
1. Valentino Rossi
2. Makoto Tamada
3. Alex Barros

Estoril is a good track, there are many corners and chicanes, but the surface is a lil bit bumpy. this season, Rossi crushed on a bumpy track in Brasilian MotoGP. Hope that he'll do it better in Estoril. Earlier in the qualifying times, rain fell down quite heavy. but eventually sunshine brought the final qualifying on a fully-dry track. Starting Grid: 1. Makoto Tamada / JPN / Camel Honda 2. Valentino Rossi / ITA / Gauloises Fortuna Yamaha 3. Sete Gibernau / SPA / Telefonica Movistar Honda 4. Max Biaggi / ITA / Camel Honda 5.

Rossi won the Portuguese MotoGP quite easily, while Biaggi and Gibernau, his title rivals were unlucky. Biaggi crashed his front wheel onto Capirossi's and retired in the 1st lap, and Gibernau was held by Barros for the whole race. Here's the complete result: 1. Valentino Rossi 2. Makoto Tamada 3. Alex Barros 4. Sete Gibernau 5. Carlos Checa 6. John Hopkins 7. Loris Capirossi 8. Troy Bayliss 9. Colin Edwards 10. Norifumi Abe 11. Shinya Nakano 12. Jeremy McWilliams 13. Alex Hofmann 14. Kenny Roberts 15. Nobuatsu Aoki 16. James Ellison __________________ Don't Drink and Drive... Smoke and Fly!!!
