Vintertester 2010-2011

[Zeb_Macahan]

Med hela 16/100.
Jörgen borde vara nervös, jävligt nervös!

Det är en sak att vara konstant jättesnabb hela race och kvala/testa snabbt.

Jörgen kan båda, nästan alla andra tappar när Jörgen börjar komma ikapp, spara däck kan han, favoriten!

Spies har väl hittills inte tagit något steg bakåt i sin karriär så jag tror Jörgen får det svettigt i år.

Å andra sidan kommer väl Grin-Jörgen gå till sina chefer om Spies är för tuff mot honom på racen...

Spies problem förra året var inte slutet på racen utan början. Han var ofta bland de absolut snabbaste i slutet av racen. Han kommer definitivt nosa Lorenzo i nacken men Lorenzo är fortfarande före.

Edit:En "sur" landsvägsmc (WSBK Kawa) körde för några veckor sedan på Sepang o kom ned på stabila 2:04 på Pirelli racedäck dvs. inga kvalmackor öht.
MotoGP/Prototypracing suger rätt hårt, för dom vet t.o.m. själva att dom borde köra på 1:50.0 Tror faktiskt Tom Sykes (som inte är världsbäst direkt) skulle kunna kapa några sekunder till om han bara fick kolfiberbromsar + kolfiberfälgar + Bridgestones superdäck!!

 

[Henrik]

Är det inte fan så vasst att en "vemfanärdet"-människa (Abraham) efter ett par dagar ligger 1,8 sek efter de bästa???

Det är helt fantastiskt bra om man jämför hans tider pass för pass. Hoppas bara det inte är ett suzuki-försäsongstestar-syndrom på honom utan att han verkligen hänger med.

4 sekunder efter snabbaste MotoGP-hoj är rätt mycket tid. På 20 varv skulle han i teorin vara 1 min och 20 sekunder efter tex Lorenzo i mål...

Och fightas med Capirossi...

Bautista hade problem med magen och körde bara ett par varv i morse.

Kör Abraham Suzuki? Jamen då förklarar ju det saken! Tidigare i tråden uttryckte jag att det var kul och oväntat att Suzukin med Bautista hängde med så bra, för enligt den samlade SH-expertisen är Suzuki en skithoj! Den samlade SH-expertisen menade då att "Suzuki är alltid snabba i början på säsongen!"

Detta måste då betyda att det är hojens, och inte förarens, förtjänst att Abraham är snabb!

Nej, K.A kör en Ducce som Pappa köpt. Men som övriga SH är jag med på noterna att en Suzuki i Malaysia på försäsongstest ska vara topp 10, men sen vet vi ju hur det brukar gå. Däremot hoppas jag K.A inte lider av samma syndrom utan att han gör dom resultat han gör för att han har talang för GP och förhoppningsvis kommer klättra högre och högre ju mer 800cc han får köra.

Någon som har koll på vilka övriga datum det testas på innan säsongen drar igång?
Tänker då främst på 125/moto2 och Wsbk/Wss
Idm är ju intressant också där vi också har svenskt deltagande

Den allvetande Axxexs kanske har koll på detta?

När första testet är över är det bara att notera att Gresini me Aoyama & Simoncelli sticker ut & det va ju alltid kul

125/moto2 har tester snart. Nästa vecka tror jag. WSBK/WSS har sitt test veckan innan deras första race på PI. Då testar ASBK ihop med dom. IDM har ett gemensamt test på Lautsitzring 12-13 april nånting. Jag ska nog hitta nått att lägga in här.

Marco Simoncelli
“I am really happy today. In the test at Valencia we realised that the new bike had potential and I already had a good feeling with it. Taking into account that this is not one of my favourite circuits we have still managed to build on our consistency from yesterday and this morning I was able to set an awesome lap. For the rest of the day we focused on a race simulation, setting a consistent pace and by the end of it I wasn’t on the limit like I was in the race here. Overall I am 100% happy. The team has worked brilliantly, the changes have integrated well and everything has gone perfectly. We have all improved, starting with myself, the guys and the bike, and I’m sure this year I’ll ‘be there’ too. Obviously this is only the first test so we have to keep our feet on the ground and just continue like this.”

Hiroshi Aoyama
This morning we concentrated on the” set up “and went very well. In the afternoon we continued our work with great satisfaction. Three days were important and useful to understand that I can still go strong. The team is fantastic and I found a perfect harmony. Now we will analyze the data and prepare the second equally important to test in Sepang. ”

Casey Stoner
“Today was definitely the best day, despite the crash. In general we made some nice steps forwards, alternating between the different chassis, trying to get a good feeling for them. We managed to make the bike work a lot better with used tyres and a different traction control system that catches the tyres a little quicker when they start to spin – which assisted with our corner speed. I’m really pleased with what I’ve found in this test, in fact it’s a little better than what I expected. I’m happy with the overall package, just to be able to focus with such a good base set-up has been really important for us”.

Andrea Dovizioso
“This morning we tried a different bike set up and we improved in the middle of the corner. We worked on some electronics, in particular on the traction control and we found some good solutions. We also tested a different set up of the clutch, but unfortunately the feedback was not as we expected. This morning the track conditions were very good, so I used the soft tyre and I could lap in 2.00. It was the first time that I set 2.00 on this track so I’m very happy. I’m satisfied about the work done by HRC, myself and the team during these three days of testing. We start from a very good package. All Hondas are very competitive with many strong riders. We are aware that what we have done is not enough and that we need to continue working. I’m happy also of the training programme done during the winter because physically I managed this first test of the year well.”

Dani Pedrosa
“I am very very happy about how the test went in general. The best news we could have is that recovery of the arm has been effective and cramps have disappeared and the lack of power which had me so worried. This afternoon we did a long run of 12 laps and we have done well. As for the work on the bike, I am also satisfied. We tried many things, step by step, and we leave Malaysia with clear ideas regarding suspensions and some more thing to confirm about chassis and engine when we come back here. I have concentrated more on the 2010 machine and the second test we will have more time to test this year’s bike. Ohlins also will bring some new parts that can still improve the package. For me the most important step we have given is in terms of stability on braking, which was one of the things we wanted”.

Valentino Rossi
“I’m very happy because before coming here, I expected to do 20, 30 laps per day, and as it turns out, I did around 40 each of the first two days and over 50 today. Of course I was really finished by the end, in part because the rest of my body has to work differently; my left arm has to do extra work, so it’s very tired. But I’m really happy with my shoulder because it’s improving day-by-day, and even after the stress of having ridden a MotoGP bike at the limit, I don’t have any problems: now it’s just a question of strength. My mobility has improved a lot, and I no longer think my physical limitations cost me a second; let’s say I lose five or six tenths, especially on braking and in corner entry. Anyway, we worked well today too, and we were able to collect a lot of data and solve the chattering problem we were experiencing. Obviously, there’s still a lot to do, but compared to the start of the test, we’ve definitely gotten closer to the base setup we’re looking for. There’s no need to change the Desmosedici’s character; we need to take advantage of its best characteristics—its stability and its engine—and improve the other areas, especially the in-corner behavior, to make it turn better. In any case, the overall evaluation of the test is definitely good; today we’re a second off the top riders, and also in the afternoon, riding with race tires, the distance stayed around seven or eight tenths. I still have to do more kilometers in order to understand other aspects of the GP11 but, although I have to change my riding style a little, I now feel much more at home with the Ducati.”

Nicky Hayden
“It’s great to be back here, and to be back on the bike. We had three important days with a lot of work to do. Of course I don’t like to still be so far away from the leaders, but we’ve reduced the gap every day. Today it looked like it could rain at any time, so we did a lot of laps in the morning and found some stuff we like. We chased the chatter a lot, which cost us time trying to figure out what’s going on. Last year, that was something we only had a problem with at this one track. We don’t want it anywhere, but it could be a problem that’s not related to the GP11 in general and is specific just to this track. We also tested some tires for Bridgestone and gave them some information that can help down the road. We realize there’s still a lot of work to do, and that starts with the rider. When we come back, we’ll keep reducing the gap to the front guys.”

Jorge Lorenzo
“I’m very happy after the three days, it has been one of the best winter tests, normally we have more issues to feel good. The bike feels better but we still need to improve some points. I think the next test will see us take the next step. This afternoon when it was really hot on the track I still managed to put in a few fast laps which has given me the confidence that we are heading in a good direction. Ben is doing a very good job, I spoke with him yesterday and we discussed many things about the bike, he’s a good team mate.”

Ben Spies
“For the second and third day we did very consistent times so I’m very happy with it, it shows the consistency of the bike. There are some things we still need to work on. We tested two configurations of engine and we know which direction we want to go in now which is great. We also worked on some electronics for fuel consumption without compromising lap times and we found a good solution for that as well. We’ll come back with some different goals in two weeks to look at being a bit faster and also test some different tyres. We’ve definitely done what we needed to do here. It’s been good riding alongside Jorge, we’ve both worked hard to deliver important information which the team can now take away and work with.”

Álvaro Bautista
“I am not feeling well at all, I have a constant feeling of sickness and it hasn’t improved all day. I tried to ride the bike this morning; I really wanted to use the good track conditions and try to do my first 2’00 minute lap-time of Sepang! But immediately I made the first lap, the physical effort made the sickness worse and it was just impossible. So, I must say sorry to the team and I am also very disappointed for myself. But the guys keep reminding me that there are no points or prizes for today’s lap-times, and we made a lot of work in the last two days, so I guess it’s not a big problem. Also, Nobu did a good job and tested a lot of stuff so I hope this helps me next time. Anyway, I am really happy about the potential in the 2011 Suzuki and with my team - I can’t wait to come back in a couple of weeks.”

Toni Elias
“It was a difficult 3-day testing for me. I flew to Malaysia one week earlier to train in this typical heat and to avoid the jetlag consequences but 3 days ago I have started to feel sick. At the end I had to take antibiotics for the flu so physically I was not okay and this bike requires to be in a good form. Despite the flu I think we had 3 productive days trying different adjustments to get more confidence and more stability on track. However we still have a lot of work to do because I am struggling to find the right setting for me but this is normal as I am continuing my adaptation to the RCV. I lapped in 2.01 in 2009 on a MotoGP bike so I am sure we will find the way to reduce the gap.”

Karel Abraham
"Of course, we are delighted with this result. But what is more important, our goal was to familiarize with the motorcycle and we achieved it.”

Cal Crutchlow
“I am happy with the test because I am still learning so much but I was able to run a consistent pace and drop my lap times on each day. I’m on a big learning curve and I wasn’t looking for pure speed. I’d never ridden at this track before and it is certainly a tough place to learn quickly. All the other guys have done millions of laps around here and I just need to build up my experience. I’ve got to improve in every area but I’m happy and the Monster Yamaha Tech 3 Team are happy too. My times are in the ballpark of those set in last year’s race and that’s pleasing considering everything is still so new for me and I wasn’t in peak physical condition because of my shoulder. I need to improve in the braking area and also step up my pace on the hard Bridgestone tyre, but I feel I’m getting more comfortable with the bike. I’ve been looking at loads of data and when we return later this month I’ll continue trying to adapt my style. I’m still riding the bike too much like a superbike, but I’m pleased that I’m progressing and getting faster.”
