\"MotoGP-silverstone-2014-marquez-lorenzo\"<\/a>The english Grand Prix<\/strong> is commonly known as one of the most changeable in the MotoGP calendar.\u00a0The weather is usually very erratic, so the chances for a flag-to-flag race are given on every race day at the Silverstone<\/strong> circuit.\u00a0But due to the conditions the whole day, the weather god seems to have a passion for good motorsport.<\/p>\n

First to deliver just this was the Moto2 field.\u00a0Fastest man in qualifying was the french rider Johann Zarco<\/strong>, who proved with a neat start, that his pole position was well-earned.\u00a0But despite this fact, Mac VDS rider Mika Kallio was leading the field in front of Zarco<\/strong> after just one lap.\u00a0Kallio dominated the race very quickly, opening a big gap as fast as he could.<\/p>\n

Behind him, with a lead of more than one second, the fighting got on.\u00a0Especially Zarco battled hard with the warm-up’s fastest man, Jonas Folger.\u00a0The german fought his way up to third position, after leaving Simone Corsi and Esteve<\/strong> \u201eTito\u201c Rabat<\/strong> behind him.\u00a0Unfortunately he was past back after a couple of laps, riding just in 6th<\/sup><\/span> position.\u00a0Considering a start from place 5, a throwback that is bearable and a position to catch up again, but sadly that wasn’t the only mistake the Kalex<\/strong> rider made.<\/p>\n

A few laps later, Folger<\/strong> took turn 14 too far inside and lost his front wheel.\u00a0He fell and took the guiltless Simone Corsi with him.\u00a0Both riders couldn’t rejoin the race again, but Corsi has apparently injured his hand.<\/p>\n

Up front the battling went on, now with Maverick Vi\u00f1ales<\/strong> being involved.\u00a0The Kalex<\/strong> rider made his way up, leaving the weaken Zarco<\/strong> and Tito Rabat behind him.\u00a0But Vi\u00f1ales lost this promising position, after taking too much risk in an encounter with Rabat.\u00a0The last years Moto3 champion had to take outlet zone to prevent a crash that would have taken him and his rival out of the race.<\/p>\n

That made Rabat the new second, but still the encounter costed time.\u00a0The only one benefiting from that was leader Mika Kallio<\/strong>, whose lead had by now increased to 2,5 seconds.\u00a0What seems uncatchable, made Rabat his task.\u00a0With four laps to go, the gap between him and his teammate shrank rapidly.\u00a0Also Zarco and Vi\u00f1ales<\/strong> continued the battle behind the current championship leader, letting him escape.<\/p>\n

Rabat is known in the paddock for reaching his highest form within the actual race.\u00a0He seems to get stronger with every taken lap and he proved this judgment once again.\u00a0With only two more laps to go, he took the first position from Kallio,<\/strong> who had been leading this Grand Prix from the very beginning.<\/p>\n

This fight between teammates got on, with a constantly switch of leadership, until at the beginning of the last lap.\u00a0Rabat prevailed and prevented every overtake by Kallio<\/strong> and the resurgent Maverick Vi\u00f1ales<\/strong>.\u00a0Last to complete the Moto3 podium was polesetter Johann Zarco.<\/p>\n

The ones to not finish the race were Jonas Folger and Simone Corsi, due to their crash, Xavier Simeon and Lorenzo Baldassarri<\/strong>.\u00a0Also, Jeremy McWilliams<\/strong> and Dakota Mamola<\/strong>, who just attended the Silverstone Grand Prix<\/strong>, weren’t able to cross the finish line.<\/p>\n

Only one to crash out of race in MotoGP was Honda Gresini rider \u00c1lvaro Bautista<\/strong>.\u00a0A disaster for the spaniard, since it’s not yet decided where he’s going to ride next year.\u00a0A better recommendation left his teammate Scott Redding.<\/strong>\u00a0The local hero rode a solid race, finishing 10th<\/sup><\/span>, two places ahead of fellow countrymen Cal Crutchlow<\/strong>.\u00a0The Ducati rider struggled with his bike, even at his home Grand Prix<\/strong>.\u00a0More than a 12th<\/sup><\/span> place wasn’t possible.<\/p>\n

But from an english perspective, apart from Redding, this race wasn’t the most sucessfull one.\u00a0Bradley Smith,<\/strong> who started great, lost his 7th<\/sup><\/span> place due to technical issues with his Tech3 Yamaha, finishing 22th<\/sup><\/span>.\u00a0But above everything else, the MotoGP fans around the world wanted to see a repetition from last years incredible fight between Marc M\u00e1rquez<\/strong> and Jorge Lorenzo<\/strong>.\u00a0The race was one of the most remindable and probably most thrilling races ever in motorcycle history.<\/p>\n

The chances were good, after Lorenzo’s good start from third position, which took him to the leadership.\u00a0Marc M\u00e1rquez<\/strong> came up right behind him, followed by a more surprising Aleix Espargar\u00f3<\/strong>.\u00a0He and Andrea Dovizioso<\/strong>, who started behind M\u00e1rquez<\/strong> as second, fought hard for the first laps, but had to give in later, althrough Andrea Dovizioso<\/strong> was able to stay as close to the top as possible.<\/p>\n

So after some spectacular fights with Valentino Rossi<\/strong>, Espargar\u00f3<\/strong> had to tear off and leave the third place to the Yamaha factory rider.\u00a0By that time, Rossi’s chance to catch up on M\u00e1rquez and the still leading Jorge Lorenzo<\/strong> shrunk.<\/p>\n

Both were far away, so Rossi<\/strong> had to deal with Ducati<\/strong> rider Andrea Dovizioso<\/strong> throughout the remaining laps.\u00a0The Doctor’s goal was to achieve his first podium ever at the Silverstone<\/strong> circuit, which meant holding everyone behind him.<\/p>\n

With Lorenzo still leading over M\u00e1rquez,<\/strong> his teammate Dani Pedrosa<\/strong> passed Dovizioso<\/strong> and, later on, Rossi.<\/strong>\u00a0Pedrosa had started from a low 5th<\/sup><\/span> place, nothing common for the long time Repsol rider.\u00a0But after the win in Brno, this wasn’t Pedrosa’s race.<\/p>\n

Rossi and Dovizioso<\/strong> overtook him again, but this matter was missed out, due to the developments up front.\u00a0After a long wait, which seemed to be scheduled, M\u00e1rquez<\/strong> finally got past Lorenzo.<\/strong>\u00a0With his second year in the premiere class of motorcycle racing, M\u00e1rquez seemed to have learned everything.\u00a0He watched Lorenzo and figured out what would be the best spot to overtake him.<\/p>\n

But Jorge Lorenzo<\/strong> slowly comes back to be his last years self.\u00a0With five laps into the race, he fought M\u00e1rquez again and again, not putting off.\u00a0After all, this time took him nowhere.\u00a0After 17 laps, M\u00e1rquez<\/strong> blocked the Yamaha<\/strong> rider out with a very hard maneuver.\u00a0Lorenzo tried to get back on him, but sadly without sucess.<\/p>\n

M\u00e1rquez has won his 11th<\/span> race this season, a thing that only Valentino Rossi<\/strong> accomplished before him.\u00a0The italian himself finished third, setting a new world record.\u00a0With 246 Grands Prix<\/strong>, he’s now the rider with the most race participations.\u00a0A number that will suit the \u201cgreatest rider of all times\u201d.<\/p>\n

Something that won’t suit him is the result his Moto3 team had drawn in.\u00a0Romano Fenati,<\/strong> who is supposed to be title contender, started from a horrendous 22th<\/span> place.\u00a0He bravely made his way up thoughout the race, reaching 15h<\/span> position.\u00a0Nothing satisfying neither, despite the fact that his teammate Francesco Bagnaia<\/strong> only crossed the finish line as 21th<\/span>.<\/p>\n

So from an italian point of view, all eyes lay on rookie Enea Bastianini<\/strong>.\u00a0The sixteen year old was supposed to ride the Red Bull Rookies Cup this year, but was taken into the world championship at last minute.\u00a0An absolutely right decision, considering his fourth place in qualifying.<\/p>\n

Polesetter Alex Rins made a good start, but despite the fact that Bastianini<\/strong> left the first corner as the new second, a matter that lost it’s significance.\u00a0Also Alex M\u00e1rquez closed up to them, taking the lead from his teammate Rins.<\/strong>\u00a0The battle got on and on throughout the complete race.<\/p>\n

In between championship leader Jack Miller was involved, but somehow lost connection to the leading group.\u00a0With not even finishing the first lap, Efren Vazquez crashed out of the race, quickly followed by Andrea Migno, who is supposed to replace Arthur Sissis in the Mahindra Racing team.\u00a0Luckily both riders appeared to be unhurt and haven’t taken any others with them.<\/p>\n

In the leading group, things were changing so incredibly fast, the cameras couldn’t capture every single overtake.\u00a0Miguel Oliveira made his way up, taking the lead in front of Bastianini<\/strong> for a few instants.\u00a0Also Niccol\u00f2 Antonelli<\/strong>, Alexis Masbou<\/strong> and Jakub Kornfeil closed up on the front row, making it even more confused.<\/p>\n

But with four laps to go, the field was somewhat sorted.\u00a0The leading group shrunk to Bastianini<\/strong> still up first, followed by M\u00e1rquez, Rins and Oliveria.
\nA gap opened between them and the remaining riders, down to KTM rider Romano Fenati<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

For the last two lap, nothing was decided up front.\u00a0M\u00e1rquez and Rins<\/strong> went past Bastianini,<\/strong> but the rookie did not want to but back.\u00a0All three provided a phenomenal duel, which Rins<\/strong> left as winner, just 0,011 seconds before his teammate.\u00a0Third was Enea Bastianini, after a fantastic performance, followed by Miguel Oliveira.\u00a0Jack Mille<\/strong>r finished the race just in 6th<\/span> position, even letting Jakub Kornfeil<\/strong> pass.<\/p>\n

He’s still the championship leader, but his lead shrunk to just 13 points. If Miller is able to open that gap up a little more, will show the Misano Grand Prix in two weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
