2017 MotoGP Season: 5 things to watch<\/h2>\n

As 2016 draws to a close, teams and riders\u00a0have already started working on their 2017 quests. Needless to say, it will be a very important year for the MotoGP Championship<\/strong>, with\u00a0lots of transitions, garage changes and new challenges. Some of these moves, and the progress shown by a bunch of teams, will be pivotal not only for the season to come, but -reasonably- for the upcoming 2-3 years. \u00a0Discover\u00a02017 MotoGP Team and Riders\u00a0<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

5 things to watch in the upcoming\u00a0\u00a02017 MotoGP Season<\/a><\/strong><\/h2>\n

One – Lorenzo to Ducati<\/h3>\n

There is little doubt this will be a key story to the year to come, with\u00a0the Borgo Panigale<\/strong> factory picking one of their most talented riders ever. Lorenzo<\/strong> is a fast, fierce, experienced rider who can provide a great amount of solidity to the Ducati project, with Dovizioso<\/strong> working the midfielder position rather than the striker. Sure, it will be no piece of cake, because we know the red beast can be quite a moody one and won’t be tamed easily. With that said, if Dall’Igna<\/strong> and company will provide the spaniard with a competitive ride, get ready to witness more red on the podium come march.<\/p>\n

Two – Vinales and Rossi<\/h3>\n

While everybody now is pretty reassured on the simple fact that Maverick<\/strong> is one of the fastest guys on the grid and the M1<\/strong> is one of the best bikes out there, the relationship between yet another spaniard and Rossi<\/strong> is still to be\u00a0put to test. It is not easy to share the garage and the same leathers with the legend himself and Vinales<\/strong>\u00a0simply cannot match Valentino’s<\/strong> charisma and star-level-status. The youngster will need to prove to be smart and willing to learn, beyond -obviously- very fast and his mental strength will be tested in more than one occasion.<\/p>\n

Three – What Honda?<\/h3>\n

Let’s be honest: at the very beginning of the season, last year’s Honda RC213V<\/strong> was just meh. The japanese prototype was struggling basically everywhere, with a poor power distribution and troubles both with engine and the new Michelin tires. Eventually, the new updates brought by Honda<\/strong> during the Season fixed all major problems and Marquez<\/strong>\u00a0could win the title with 4 races to go on the calendar. Needless to say, the same mistake will not be tolerated twice and HRC<\/strong>\u00a0engineers have worked unrelentingly during the year to provide Marquez and Pedrosa with a\u00a0highly performing machine from the very beginning. Should they be able to do so, it could be a very tough year for the rest of the pack.<\/p>\n

Four – The KTM Dilemma<\/h3>\n

After the Valencia exploit, the KTM MotoGP Team<\/strong> will officially take the grid for the first time at the Qatar GP in Losail next march. First and foremost this is excellent\u00a0news both for the fans and for the authorized personnel, as the Mattighofen<\/strong> factory is clearly part of the two-wheel-racing world’s aristocracy and it’s good to have them with us. So, we hope they enjoy their stay.<\/p>\n

It is genuinely too early to say how good the KTM MotoGP<\/strong> machine really will be. All we know is the bike sounds amazing, the graphics look nice and everybody is happy. In the recent past Suzuki proved that a good program takes two to\u00a0three years to win races, which is a very acceptable span of time. Also, the huge Red Bull<\/strong> backing tells the same story: the energy drink boys do not like to be in a neighborhood they don’t own, so expect very fast progress from Austria this year.<\/p>\n

Five – Cal and the lads<\/h3>\n

Satellite riders Crutchlow<\/strong> and Miller<\/strong> took home three races in the 2016 campaign. Especially the LCR<\/strong> rider showed consistency and a very strong finish to the year, battling fiercely with factory teams and top riders and scoring crucial podiums. Much to Lucio Cecchinello<\/strong>‘s delight, the Honda<\/strong> satellite gigs have proven to be a force that needs to be dealt with in the race to the title. Although it will be\u00a0very\u00a0unlikely that a non-factory team could win the Championship,<\/strong> the points snatched by Cal<\/strong>\u00a0and company along the way will play a key part in the\u00a06\u00a0factory teams’\u00a0mathematics\u00a0next year. Should Crutchlow, Redding, Miller<\/strong> and Co. make it to the podium in several races, we would witness another very exciting season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
