[Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir cette image]- Blessé à l'épaule au Mans,
Efrén Vázquez (Mahindra) fera tout pour être présent en Italie.
- Même cas de figure pour
Danny Webb (Suter Honda) aprsè sa fracture du pied au Mans.
- A l'inverse, absence de
Florian Alt (Kalex-KTM) après sa fracture de l'avant-bras droit au Mans.
- Wild Cards:
Andrea Locatelli (Mahindra officielle MGP3O) et
Michael Coletti (NSF250R, équipe Honda Minimoto)
La situation au championnat: pour le moment, la situation est stable avec Vinales, Salom, Rins et Folger isolés devant un groupe compact emmené par Brad Binder...
- Au lendemain du Mans,
Pol Espargaro a un peu craqué (point faibles de Redding, pas normal que Rabat l'attaque, etc); saura-t-il se reprendre en Italie?
- Wild card :
Lucas Mahias sur la Transfiormers ne sera pas présent. Le budget a été trouvé mais le timing était trop serré, d'autant que Lucas souhaitait, à juste titre, rouler un peu sur le circuit avant.
Il existe maintenant une éventualité pour Assen mais plus sûrement Brno.
Gino Rea a également renoncé à sa Wild Card italienne et sera sans doute présent à Assen, un circuit qu'il connaît déjà.
La situation au championnat: à ce jour, toutes catégories confondues, Scott Redding est l'homme qui compte le plus d'avance sur ses poursuivants...
-
Ben Spies sera de retour sur la Ducati.
- Nouveaux pneus arrière
Bridgestone supportant mieux les températures extrêmes atteintes sur ce circuit... mais la pluie est attendue!
Wild Card:
Pirro sur la troisième Ducati.
La situation au championnat: les Honda boys ont pris le pouvoir et Lorenzo s'est fait un peu décroché suite à sa course du Mans. Derrière, c'est Crutchlow qui dépasse Rossi.
En CRT, Espargaro emmène un groupe qui comprend des MotoGP...
Bridgestone MotoGP
Preview - Round 5: Italy, Mugello
Bridgestone slick compounds available: Front: Soft & Medium. Rear: Soft, Medium & Hard (Asymmetric)
Bridgestone wet tyre compounds available: Hard (Main), Soft (Alternative) Mugello is the venue for round five of the 2013 MotoGP
season and the first of two races on the Italian peninsula this year. The circuit is both a rider and fan favourite owing to its sinuous layout and picturesque setting.
The Mugello circuit is fast and flowing with one of the longest straights on the MotoGP calendar. This straight is preceded by the horseshoe-shaped Bucine corner which slingshots the riders down the hill towards turn one at speeds approaching 350km/h. Consequently, the braking zone into San Donato is the most vicious in MotoGP and requires front tyres with very high levels of structural stability.
In addition to the stability needed under heavy acceleration and braking, the sweeping sections of Casanova-Savelli and Biondetti, as well as high-speed corners such as Arrabbiata 1 and 2, require very high levels of grip from the edge of the tyre. With nine right-handed corners compared to just six left-handers, Bridgestone will provide asymmetric rear slicks with slightly harder rubber on the right shoulders compared to the left.
One of the key performance requirements of the rear slicks developed for Mugello is an ability to withstand very high temperatures for sustained periods. At this circuit, the riders tend to accelerate hard at high lean angles which generates extreme heat, so all the rear slicks Bridgestone will supply this weekend will be in the heat-resistant ‘Special Construction’ specification. This specification of rear slick ensures superior rider safety and consistent grip levels in extreme operating conditions.
Rear slick options for the CRT riders are the soft and medium compound, while the works riders will be offered the medium and hard compound rear slicks. Bridgestone’s front slick tyre compounds for the Italian Grand Prix are devised to ensure maximum braking and cornering stability, while catering to the potential for cool conditions.
Wet conditions are forecast for this weekend and Bridgestone’s main wet tyre for Mugello will be the hard wet tyre, with each rider able to select up to two front and rear tyres in the alternative, soft specification if they desire.
Hiroshi Yamada - Manager, Bridgestone Motorsport Department
“Everyone in the paddock loves coming to Mugello as the circuit is one of the jewels in the crown of MotoGP as it is fast, technically demanding and is situated in a beautiful countryside setting. The circuit is quite demanding on tyres so our development challenge is to provide tyres that ensure enough grip and stability for riders to safely navigate the twisting track, while managing the high temperatures caused by sustained high lean angles and heavy acceleration. While this is an important race on the MotoGP calendar, it is a particularly special event for Ducati as it is their home race, and after their strong showing at Le Mans I am sure the whole team is approaching this weekend full of confidence. The exciting start to the championship has helped deliver healthy crowds, so I hope that this weekend welcomes a large and vibrant crowd at Mugello cheering on its local heroes.”
Shinji Aoki - Manager, Bridgestone Motorsport Tyre Development Department
“Mugello is one of the fastest circuits on the calendar and is tough on tyres due to its technical layout with many high speed corners and the track temperature that often reaches above 50 degrees Celsius. This year’s race will be run earlier in the summer than the last couple of years but excessive track temperatures could still occur. Apart from the high temperatures, the track surface has a high grip level and is abrasive, and there are significant elevation changes which all combine to place significant load on the tyres. The numerous heavy braking points, especially those that are downhill, demand a strong front tyre whilst the many high speed corners require good stability and shoulder grip from the rear tyre. The top speeds reached at Mugello are the highest of the season and this puts significant strain on the centre section of the rear tyres.”
Dunlop Relishes Mugello Challenge For Moto2 and Moto3 TeamsDunlop is looking forward to the Mugello round on the MotoGP calendar. The Italian track has always been a good circuit for getting the best out of tyres. Characteristic bumps and high grip are returning following resurfacing two years ago. The teams have the challenge of finding a set-up to get the right bike balance given the twists, up-hill and down-hill turns.
Moto2 riders can choose the same soft ‘302’ front tyre that all but one rider elected to use at Le Mans, but all other options are different. The alternative front will be the ‘717’ hard compound which has historically been a favourite among the Moto2 riders on that track. The ‘3855’ medium option rear, which offers high resistance to wear while providing a consistent amount of grip, will be on offer along with the ‘3838’ hard tyre that impressed riders so much in 2012 that they were accounted for 30% of rear tyre usage throughout the season because of the rider confidence they gave to the last lap of the race leading to many lap records being set at the end of race distances.
Moto3 riders also have a change in allocation with a new hard rear compound tyre being available. The new specification has faster warm-up times compared to the previous version. The much-favoured ‘M’ compound will also be available for the rear along with ‘M’ and ‘H’ fronts as used last year.
Dunlop’s work continues after race-day with testing for both Moto2 and Moto3 at the track. Dunlop will be testing the latest development tyres for future innovations.
Clinton Howe, Operations Manager Motorcycle Grand Prix:“Last year we had a 50/50 split for both front and rear tyres choice in Moto2 so it will be interesting to see if we have the same again with the same tyres on offer. We had a similar split at Le Mans in 2012 but this year there were only four riders that had different choices to the majority. The tests next week will be a good opportunity to see how the designs that we have evaluated perform on track. The riders will have had a good few days of riding on the track so will be well up to speed to try the options for future rounds.”
