Well,… mungkin 2 pembalap ini yang menjadi wakil masing-masing pabrikan … untuk fight di ajang MotoGP …!!! Yup,.. tim Honda Repsol diwakili oleh Marc Marquez … dan tim Yamaha Racing Team diwakili oleh Jorge Lorenzo …!!! Yaaagh… memang kurang seru lah wong dua-duanya Spaniard kabeeegh… but thiz is a fact … so nggak bisa diabaikan …!!! Naaagh… pada FP1 kemaren… Marquez tercepat dengan catatan waktu 2’03.816 detik ….!!! Namun pada gelaran berikutnya yaitu FP2… Lorenzo bisa yang tercepat dengan catatan waktu 2’02.734 detik … padahal sebelumnya di FP1 … Lorenzo hanya sanggup di 2’04.035 detik … !!!

Improvemet yang ukup signifikan ini… hampir 1.5 detik… membuat gusar Marc Marquez… walaupun yang namanya pembalap bisa-bisa saza memberikan statement yang ‘menghibur’ lawannya ..!!!

“This afternoon from the beginning Jorge was quite fast. We tried some things and I didn’t like it, but then on the last run I felt better with the bike and then the pace was not so bad. At the minute I’m more worried about Jorge because his pace is quite good but with Dani you never know. I felt so good right from the beginning. In the afternoon, we were one second faster. Jorge might be a little stronger than us so far, but we are closer to his times than we had expected,” commented Marquez, who also added, “We needed to make some adjustments because there are many bumps on this track but I am happy because we had a good day.” – Marquez

Hasil ini tentu saza membangkitkan semangat baru buat Lorenzo… dan tim nya memang membuat sedikit modifikasi.. sehingga bisa melakukan pengereman lebih baik …!!! Namun demikian tim Yamaha lage berusaha agar ketika ban belakang sudah mulai menipis… bagaimana membuat bikez masih konstant… so disini perlu setup bikez yang optimal …!!!

“I started very fast because I improved almost one second and a half in the beginning; I was surprised with the improvement. At this track, when the rear tyre starts to drop it’s very difficult to keep the same pace so we have to work hard to make a constant bike that works over long distance. I’m satisfied because I think we have the possibility to fight for the victory this time,” – Lorenzo.

Last,… jika juragan ada waktu… mungkin akan diulas baik pada babak Free Practice, QP ataupun pada waktu race …!!! So… kemungkinan memang race bakalan seru… kira-kira siapa yang bakalan menang …??? 😀
