Foggia fearsome on Friday, Sasaki second

The Italian stakes an early claim as he tries to become the first rider to win three times in Moto3™ at the same venue. Leopard Racing’s Dennis Foggia has marked himself as an early favourite in Moto3™ at the Gran Premio Gryfyn di San Marino e della Riviera di Rimini after prevailing by a margin of 0.382 seconds in FP2. ‘The Rocket’ lived up to his nickname by setting a 1:41.608 around the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli when no one else could go any better than a 1:41.990. Sterilgarda Husqvarna Max’s Ayumu Sasaki, the race winner a fortnight ago at the Red Bull Ring, was second fastest, with fellow Austria podium finisher Tatsuki Suzuki third but a full 0.546 seconds adrift of teammate Foggia. Foggia had been the pace-setter by a smaller margin in FP1 on a 1:42.442 and he was first to improve that benchmark when he clocked a 1:42.361 and 1:42.323 with around a quarter of an hour to go in FP2. Suzuki soon made it a Leopard one-two when he set a 1:42.349, before Deniz Öncü (Red Bull KTM Tech3) joined the top three on a 1:42.467. With less than three minutes remaining before the chequered flag, Sasaki went quickest on a 1:41.990 and World Championship leader Sergio Garcia (Gaviota GASGAS Aspar Team) jumped from 24th to second on a 1:42.158. However, Foggia hit back with his 1:41.608, following Suzuki across the stripe. Behind that top three of Foggia, Sasaki, and Suzuki is Garcia and another rider who was outside the top 14 Q2 cut-off for much of the session: John McPhee (Sterilgarda Husqvarna Max), who lapped as quickly as a 1:42.278. Provisional Q2 places Behind that top five, sixth and seventh went to MT Helmets - MSI team-mates Diogo Moreira and Ryusei Yamanaka, while Jaume Masia (Red Bull KTM Ajo) shook off pain from a highside in FP1 to claim eighth at 0.818 seconds off the pace. Izan Guevara (Gaviota GASGAS Aspar Team) and Öncü rounded out the top 10, with David Muñoz (BOE Motorsports) last of those within one second of Foggia’s pace. The latter had regrouped from an early spill at Tramonto (Turn 10). Stefano Nepa (Angeluss MTA Team), Joel Kelso (CIP Green Power) and Andrea Migno (Rivacold Snipers Team) are the last riders currently set to go straight to Q2. Lorenzo Fellon (SIC58 Squadra Corse), twice, and Kaito Toba (CIP Green Power) also went down during the session. Everything could still change as FP3 begins at 9:00 (GMT +2) on Saturday, and then it's time for qualifying for the lightweight class from 12:35 FRIDAY: TOP 3 1 Dennis Foggia (Leopard Racing) - Honda - 1'41.608 2 John McPhee (Sterilgarda Husqvarna Max) - Husqvarna - +0.382 3 Tatsuki Suzuki (Leopard Racing) - Honda - +0.546 For more Moto3 info checkout our dedicated Moto3 News page Or visit the official MotoGP website motogp.com Read the full article

MotoGP Grand Prix qualification of Styria

Nakagami’s 1: 23.805 delay in first practice was enough to take first place overall on Friday after an early rain shower hit the second session with Aprilia’s Lorenzo Savadori taking first place.

The mixed conditions left a messed up top order when MotoGP got back into action for the first time in five weeks after the summer break.

In Friday’s combined practice times, each rider completed their best lap in dry FP1, which means Nakagami leads the way ahead of reigning MotoGP champion Suzuki Joan Mir and Aprilias Aleix Espargaro.

Suzuki’s Alex Rins finished fourth ahead of the Repsol Honda duo Pol Espargaro and Marc Marquez, who in turn led the factory Yamaha pair Maverick Vinales and Fabio Quartararo. Johann Zarco from Pramac Ducati and his Ducati colleague Jack Miller rounded off the top 10.

Dani Pedrosa is making his first MotoGP start since the end of the 2018 season as a wildcard entry for KTM, while Cal Crutchlow is also returning to Petronas SRT Yamaha as a replacement for the injured Franco Morbidelli.

Why is it called GP Steiermark?

Since races in the same MotoGP World Championship season cannot be given the same race name, Austria’s first race of its double winners was called GP Steiermark, named after the region of Austria in which the track is located. The name was also used in the Red Bull Ring Double Header last year.

It is inspired by the other double winners of MotoGP, which were held both in 2020 and this year as part of the calendar that was re-mixed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Earlier this season, Qatar hosted the first Doha GP as the second leg of its back-to-back races, while Portimao will host the Algarve GP in November, having hosted the Portuguese GP earlier this season in April.

Why is MotoGP holding two races in Austria?

As part of the COVID-19 hit campaign, the MotoGP calendar 2021 has been adjusted due to various travel restrictions around the world.

The MotoGP races in Finland, Japan, Thailand and Australia have already been canceled for 2021, while the Argentina GP remains postponed.

To add to the calendar, Losail, the Red Bull Ring and Portimao will host every two races.

Foggia pips Öncü and McPhee as 0.049 covers the top three on Friday

Honda edge out KTM and Husqvarna in a tight top trio after Day 1 in Austria. Leopard Racing’s Dennis Foggia emerged with the fastest after Moto3™’s first dry-weather session at the new-look Red Bull Ring. The Italian set a 1:41.774 with the chequered flag out in FP2 at the CryptoDATA Motorrad Grand Prix von Österreich to top the session and the day, with Deniz Öncü (Red Bull KTM Tech3) second with a lap time set just before he was involved in a crash with Lorenzo Fellon (SIC58 Squadra Corse). John McPhee (Sterilgarda Husqvarna Max) took third as both AutoSolar GASGAS Aspar Team riders, Izan Guevara and Sergio Garcia, made it into the top 14, which could be particularly important given the threat of rain when FP3 unfolds on the following morning... With the track having dried out after a wet FP1, it was no surprise that every rider immediately went quicker than their personal-best time from the morning session. Initially, the name at the top changed with every passing lap, before Ayumu Sasaki (Sterilgarda Husqvarna Max) consolidated first position with a 1:42.165 just before the quarter-hour mark, a time which held up until the final five minutes. By then, Daniel Holgado had not long gone quicker but his 1:41.989 would not stand due to a breach of track limits, meaning Red Bull KTM Ajo team-mate Jaume Masia had the honours of breaking Sasaki’s hold on top spot when he punched out a 1:41.959. Almost as soon as he had done so, Öncü clocked a 1:41.816, but he was on the floor moments later again in an incident with Fellon, who lost the front of his Honda at Turn 1. Stewards reviewed the incident but opted to take no action, while both riders were okay. With everyone trying to secure a provisional berth in Q2, there was a flurry of red and orange sectors as the chequered flag came out. Foggia elevated himself from fifth to first with a 1:41.774 and Leopard Racing team-mate Tatsuki Suzuki subsequently set a 1:42.035. Suzuki would be classified fourth all-told given Öncü’s earlier lap time and a very late effort from McPhee, who clocked a 1:41.823 as he got a double tow across the finish line. Provisional Q2 places Behind Foggia, Öncü, McPhee and Suzuki, Diogo Moreira (MT Helmets - MSI) claimed fifth on a 1:42.080, ahead of Sasaki on a 1:42.085, then Stefano Nepa (Angeluss MTA Team), Riccardo Rossi (SIC58 Squadra Corse), Masia, and David Muñoz (BOE Motorsports), the latter of whom had light contact with Öncü exiting Turn 2b in the early stages of the session. Guevara took 12th on a 1:42.193 and Garcia 13th on a 1:42.251, as they continue to battle each other for World Championship supremacy. Kaito Toba (CIP Green power) pipped returning rookie teammate Joel Kelso by just 0.010 to take the final, provisional place in Q2. FP3 begins at 9:00 (GMT +2) on Friday, with eyes to the skies as the weather continues to prove unpredictable. Then it's time for qualifying for the lightweight class from 12:35! FRIDAY: TOP 3 1 Dennis Foggia (Leopard Racing) - Honda - 1'41.774 2 Deniz Öncü (Red Bull KTM Tech3) - KTM - +0.042 3 John McPhee (Sterilgarda Husqvarna Max) - Husqvarna - +0.049 For more Moto3 info checkout our dedicated Moto3 News page Or visit the official MotoGP website motogp.com Read the full article

Zarco comes out swinging in Spielberg

A new all-time lap record sees the Frenchman end Friday a whopping eight tenths clear of Mir. Johann Zarco (Pramac Racing) is the new fastest ever MotoGP™ rider at the Red Bull Ring. The Frenchman's 1:22.827 set in FP1 is a new all-time lap record and one serious benchmark after a tougher Styrian GP, leaving him eight tenths clear after Day 1 of the Bitci Motorrad Grand Prix von Österreich. Reigning Champion and Styrian GP podium finisher Joan Mir was second, just ahead of his Team Suzuki Ecstar teammate Alex Rins. FP1 Zarco absolutely blasted out the blocks in FP1, the Frenchman already fastest before slamming in that new lap record to go eight tenths clear of the field in the final couple of minutes, over three tenths quicker than his previous best as he pushed early for a fast lap. The field in this case meant Mir, the number 36 adding that the position is good but they nevertheless need to work on braking, with Rins finding some better form to end the session just a tenth off his teammate. Takaaki Nakagami (LCR Honda Idemitsu) was fourth in FP1, leading the mid-part of the session for some time and maintaining his status as top Honda in Austria, with Aleix Espargaro (Aprilia Racing Team Gresini) enjoying a solid start in fifth. The only drama was a technical problem for Fabio Quartararo (Monster Energy Yamaha MotoGP) at Turn 9 at the end of the session, the Frenchman putting his hand up and pulling off. FP2 The rain came down in a big way just before the end of Moto3™ FP2, and that left the premier class with a very wet Red Bull Ring for their FP2 too. Consequently, no one improved but one person did set an incredible benchmark: Iker Lecuona (Tech3 KTM Factory Racing). The Spaniard ended the session a whopping 3.397 seconds clear after putting slicks in for a final charge, the only rider to push near the end of the session as the track dried. Lecuona reigned in the rain early on too, before Marc Marquez (Repsol Honda Team) took over on top mid-session for some time. But the number 27 KTM hit back with his run on slicks, only competing with himself for P1. Zarco was second in the session behind Lecuona, with Aleix Espargaro (Aprilia Racing Team Gresini) a few tenths further back in third. Marc Marquez ended up fourth after leading part way through, with Jack Miller (Ducati Lenovo Team) completing the top five. Francesco Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo Team) suffered a run off at Turn 4, and Joan Mir headed wide at Turn 10... as Marc Marquez got a little close for comfort up the inside. Combined timesheets FP1 is the same as the combined times given change in the weather, with Zarco retaining his eight tenths of advantage into Saturday. Mir is second ahead of Rins, with Nakagami the last man within a second. Aleix Espargaro completes the top five. Quartararo was sixth, ahead of more good Spielberg speed from Alex Marquez (LCR Honda Castrol) in seventh. Bagnaia was the second Borgo Panigale machine in P8, with Marc Marquez (Repsol Honda Team) and Styrian GP winner Jorge Martin (Pramac Racing) round out a top ten split by 1.217. Which would sound a lot, except Zarco's laptime is such that Mir in second to Martin in tenth is covered by only 0.419, and Zarco has the rest of that gap to himself. With the weather forecast for Saturday making for interesting reading, that top ten could leave a few usual suspects looking for a way into Q2. They include both Red Bull KTM Factory Racing riders Miguel Oliveira and Brad Binder, who ended the day in P15 and P16, respectively, as well as Jack Miller just behind them in 17th. They'll be looking for a way through as FP3 begins at 9:55 (GMT +2)... and for better grid positions in qualifying, which starts at 14:10. Tune in to see who can reign the Red Bull Ring on take two! MotoGP™ Friday top five: 1 Johann Zarco* - Pramac Racing - Ducati - 1:22.827 2 Joan Mir - Team Suzuki Ecstar - Suzuki - +0.798 3 Alex Rins - Team Suzuki Ecstar - Suzuki - +0.903 4 Takaaki Nakagami* - LCR Honda Idemitsu - Honda - +0.963 3 Aleix Espargaro* - Aprilia Racing Team Gresini - Honda - +1.014 *Independent Team rider For more MotoGP info checkout our dedicated MotoGP News page Or visit the official MotoGP website www.motogp.com Follow us on social media: Instagram: @superbikenews Twitter: @sbknews Facebook: @superbikenews SBN Directory - add your motorcycle related business here

MotoGP Grand Prix of Styria 2021 – watch, session times & more

Six weeks have passed since the last MotoGP action in Assen, with lots of talking points and races to look forward to in the second half of the season.

Maverick Vinales will compete in the MotoGP paddock for the first time since the announcement of its split from Yamaha at the end of this season amid speculation about its future as the Japanese manufacturer evaluates its options as its 2022 replacement.

In the meantime, attention on the Petronas SRT Yamaha team will return to Valentino Rossi and his own future after taking the summer break to weigh his options as speculation for his VR46 MotoGP team continues.

On the other side of the SRT garage, Cal Crutchlow will return to racing as an injury replacement for Franco Morbidelli in Austria. The Briton will at least step in for the Red Bull Ring one-two and the Silverstone race, with Morbidelli being out until at least the Aragon GP in September.

Another familiar face returns to the MotoGP grid this weekend as Dani Pedrosa Wildcards for KTM at the Styrian GP. It’s the 31-time race winner’s first MotoGP race since the end of the 2018 season and the first time he has ridden anything other than a Honda motorcycle.

MotoGP will also adjust to the 2021 calendar adjustments announced during the summer break, after both the Australian and Thai laps were canceled, with a second race called in at Portimao to replace the Phillip Island race.

Why is it called GP Steiermark?

Since races in the same MotoGP World Championship season cannot be given the same race name, Austria’s first race of its double winners was called GP Steiermark, named after the region of Austria in which the track is located. The name was also used in the Red Bull Ring Double Header last year.

It is inspired by the other double winners of MotoGP, which were held both in 2020 and this year as part of the calendar that was re-mixed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Earlier this season, Qatar hosted the first Doha GP as the second leg of its back-to-back races, while Portimao will host the Algarve GP in November, having hosted the Portuguese GP earlier this season in April.

Why is MotoGP holding two races in Austria?

As part of the COVID-19 hit campaign, the MotoGP calendar 2021 has been adjusted due to various travel restrictions around the world.

The MotoGP races in Finland, Japan, Thailand and Australia have already been canceled for 2021, while the Argentina GP remains postponed.

To add to the calendar, Losail, the Red Bull Ring and Portimao will host every two races.

New Post has been published on Superbike News

New Post has been published on http://superbike-news.co.uk/wordpress/jorge-martin-crowned-2018-moto3-world-champion/

Jorge Martin crowned 2018 Moto3™ World Champion

Jorge Martin (Del Conca Gresini Moto3) is the 2018 Moto3™ World Champion, taking the title at Sepang after a stunning season. Seven wins, nine podiums and 11 poles saw Martin a frontrunner throughout the season, and the Spaniard weathered the ups and downs of a tense year of competition to come out on top against key rivals Marco Bezzecchi (Redox PruestelGP) and Fabio Di Giannantonio (Del Conca Gresini Moto3).

Martin made his debut on the world stage in 2015 with Mapfre Mahindra, moving up after taking the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup. He scored his first point in the season opener in Qatar and became a regular top 15 contender, ending his rookie year in 17th overall. The following season, the rider from Madrid took another step forward – including his first podium in the wet at Brno – but he also missed a couple of races through injury, therefore ending the season just one place further forward in 16th overall.

2017 saw Martin cement his place at the front as he moved to Del Conca Gresini Moto3, beginning the year on the podium in third at Qatar. He took nine pole positions and eight further podiums that season – but it was a long wait for one to be a maiden win. The Spaniard wrapped that up in the season finale at Valencia; his first trip to the top step setting him up perfectly for an assault on the crown the following year and seeing him take fourth overall in the standings.

2018 began perfectly as Martin won in Qatar, but Argentina was a tougher race in tougher conditions and he could only manage P11. That was when the man who would push him the most this season – Marco Bezzechhi – took his first win, and a classic rivalry was born. Austin saw Martin back on the top step before two more difficult races and DNFs in Jerez and Le Mans, both seeing the Spaniard victim to serious bad luck at the hands of Aron Canet (Estrella Galicia 0,0) and Bezzecchi…

Mugello was a win before a zero in Catalunya, but Martin then took back-to-back wins in Assen and Germany to lead the standings once again. Then, however, disaster struck as the Spaniard broke his left wrist in FP1 at Brno. Operated on and forced to forfeit the round, it was an upset to the Spaniard’s charge.

Back on track in Austria, it was a weekend for Martin to clench his teeth and dig deep, which he did in stunning style to take an emotional podium. In Misano Bezzecchi then faltered and crashed, but Martin could only gain the 20 points for second. Aragon was Martin back on full power at the front for a home win, and the first of the flyaway races in Thailand gave him more of an advantage as Bezzecchi was crashed out and Martin took fourth despite some struggles with his recovery. Motegi then saw the pendulum swing again as Martin crashed in the leading group – and Bezzecchi closed back in with a win.

Phillip Island was yet more drama. This time Bezzecchi was back on the receiving end of the bad luck as he was hit by another rider, and Martin took some good points although he couldn’t take the win, coming home fourth. That was enough to give him his first match point next time out at Sepang, however, with Martin 12 points clear before the race in Malaysia – and 20 points clear of Di Giannantonio.

After another incredible race, Martin fought it out before pulling the pin to perfection and Bezzecchi was left to battle to try and keep his hopes alive. As Martin crossed the line first for another win, it all went down to the final corner but Bezzecchi couldn’t quite make it through into that crucial fourth place – making Martin the 2018 Moto3™ World Champion.

Jaume Masia leads Bezzecchi and McPhee on Friday

FP1’s quickest man Jaume Masia (Bester Capital Dubai) ends day one at the eyetime Motorrad Grand Prix von Österreich on top of the time sheets in a rain affected FP2 session, with Championship leader Marco Bezzecchi (Redox PrustelGP) remaining second quickest overall as neither of the top two improved on their times from the morning.

One rider who did improve before the heavy rain came down right at the end of the session was John McPhee (CIP – Green Power), who topped FP2 with a 1:37.329 to put himself third on the combined timesheets. Lorenzo Dalla Porta (Leopard Racing) was third in the morning but finished the day in fourth after McPhee’s time bumped the Italian down a place, but Dalla Porta the only Honda rider in the top six. Gabriel Rodrigo (RBA BOE Skull Rider) improved his time in FP2 to finish the afternoon session in third and fifth quickest overall, as Philipp Oettl (Sudmetal Schedl GP Racing) finished Friday in Austria as the sixth fastest rider – the German dropping two places from his fourth place in FP1. He also announced he’ll be moving into the intermediate class next year with Tech 3, partnering current Moto3™ Championship leader Bezzecchi.

Seventh quickest after the opening two Free Practice sessions was Enea Bastianini (Leopard Racing), improving his time in FP2 by 0.049 seconds, with Kaito Toba (Honda Team Asia) eighth on the combined timesheets – the Japanese rider was 22nd after FP1 and improved his time by over a second in the afternoon.

Albert Arenas (Angel Nieto Team Moto3) also improved his time in the afternoon to finish the day ninth quickest, with Nicolo Bulega (Sky Racing Team VR46) rounding out the top 10.

The Italian highsided at the end of the session on the exit of Turn 1 as the rain started to fall, with Nakarin Atiratphuvapat (Honda Team Asia) also going down after being collected by Bulega’s KTM – both riders headed to the Medical Centre for check ups. Niccolo Antonelli (SIC58 Squadra Corse) also crashed at Turn 1 just behind – rider ok.

Will the Moto3™ field get another dry session in FP3 ahead of qualifying? Find out when they head back out on the Red Bull Ring at 09:00 local time (GMT +2) on Saturday morning.

Alex Marquez (EG 0,0 Marc VDS) went fastest overall on Friday at the British GP, staking an early claim on a third win of the year at a favoured venue for the rider from Cervera. Miguel Oliveira (Red Bull KTM Ajo) took P2 as he seeks to bounce back from a crash out of contention in Austria, with Mattia Pasini (Italrans Racing Team) rounding out the top three as he improved and moved up in FP2.

Dominique Aegerter (Kiefer Racing) had taken control of FP1 towards the end of the session with a serious benchmark, but had to settle for P4 by the end of action – nevertheless fastest Suter and with an improvement in the afternoon.

Takaaki Nakagami (Idemitsu Honda Team Asia) got the weekend off to a good start as he locked out the top five, pushing hard for a result after the recent announcement of his graduation to the premier class next season. Another man recently announced as on the move for 2018 is Tom Lüthi (CarXpert Interwetten), winner at the British GP last year, who took P6 – just ahead of the man he’s chasing at the top of the standings, Franco Morbidelli (EG 0,0 Marc VDS).

Lorenzo Baldassarri (Forward Racing Team) and Simone Corsi (Speed Up Racing) took P8 and P9 respectively, with second Forward rider Luca Marini (Forward Racing Team) rounding out the top ten despite a crash in FP2 – rider ok.

Xavi Vierge (Tech 3 Racing) was eleventh quickest, ahead of a solid start to the weekend for RW Racing GP rider Axel Pons in P12. Stefano Manzi (Sky Racing Team VR46) made a big impact on Day 1 – as he did in the race in the lightweight class at Silverstone last year – in P13, with Hafizh Syahrin (Petronas Raceline Malaysia) and last year’s Moto3™ winner Brad Binder (Red Bull KTM Ajo) locking out the fastest fifteen.

Moto2™ head out for qualifying on Saturday at 15:05 (GMT+1).
