Rossi @ Mugello

Post by Blade »

Well its that time of year again and its one of my favourite races of the year on the Motogp calendar, Mugello 8)

Rossi is leading the championship and has previous dominated at his home circuit winning form 2002-2008 and scored a podium last year on his return to Yamaha.

Problem is Marquez is never to be written off and desperately needs to get his title challenge back on track but perhaps a bigger threat to a Rossi win is from inside the same garage. Lorenzo is in form winning the last two rounds, has won at Mugello in 12,13 & 14 and loves the Tuscan circuit.

So can Rossi return to his dominate form and win in front of a sell out home crowd or will it be another alien like Marquez, Lorenzo or even Cal Crutchlow?

After a shakey start I reckon he's on form to go all the way this year. He doesn't have the flair of other riders but his talent and consistency is undeniable.

I agree he doesn't have the flair of Rossi or marquez but as a racer on track I have always been a Lorenzo fan. He is so smooth and mm perfect every lap he is extremely impressive to watch.

Who would have guessed Marquez would be fifth in the championship when the season kicked off.

And who would have thought factory Ducati in 3rd and 4th (raaar)

It's a great season. This is what we want - riders fighting for positions on the track and in the standings.
