Pedrosa powers to first victory of the season in Estoril

Posted by The Popular News Today on Sunday, May 1, 2011

Pedrosa who only recently had surgery on his injured shoulder, had been seemingly pacing himself behind the leader, Lorenzo, until the final three laps, when the Repsol Honda rider, passed the Yamaha down the straight and then delivered a succession of fastest laps to pass the chequered flag first. Pedrosa finished just over three seconds ahead of the reigning MotoGP World Champion and closed the gap on Lorenzo’s lead in the standings to just four points. Pedrosa’s triumph also prevented the pole sitter clinching four successive victories at the Estoril circuit.

Stoner had a lonely race in third and was over seven seconds behind his team mate who won the race. The former MotoGP World Champion has never won at Estoril (one of only five circuits the Australian has failed to clinch victory at). The eyes were all on the battle behind the Australian between Valentino Rossi (Ducati Team) and Andrea Dovizioso. The Repsol Honda rider stayed close to Rossi throughout the race and managed to snatch the fourth place on the very last lap as they crossed the start finish line, by a mere 0.025s. The nine time World Champion’ previous lowest result here in Estoril had been a fourth place from 11 starts, before the pass from his fellow compatriot over the line.

It was a good day for the Monster Yamaha Tech 3 team. Colin Edwards arrived home in sixth position, two ahead of Cal Crutchlow. The British rookie had been involved in a tussle with Hiroshi Aoyama (San Carlo Honda Gresini), but the Japanese rider got the better of the former World Supersport champion. Crutchlow was one of many riders racing following an operation and has continued to pick up points in his first season in the premier class.

Nicky Hayden (Ducati Team) was ninth, after racing with Ben Spies early on and the final place in the top ten went to Frenchman Randy de Puniet (Pramac Racing) who was recovering after an operation on his leg. Toni Elías (LCR Honda) who won here in 2006, was 11th after fighting with Loris Capirossi (Pramac Racing) and edging out the most experienced rider in the field, come the end of the race.

In the first race of the season for Álvaro Bautista (Rizla Suzuki), after missing the opening two rounds, the Spaniard battled through the pain barrier to record 13th place and claim three points, just six weeks after breaking his leg.

Marco Simoncelli (San Carlo Honda Gresini Team) who started from the first row, which was only his second front row start in the premier class, suffered his second accident of the Portuguese weekend on the first lap. The Italian who c crashed whilst in contention for pole position during qualifying, came off at the beginning of the race whilst in third.

Ben Spies (Yamaha Factory Racing) struggled on his second visit to Estoril after several excursions off the track and dropping down to tenth. The American then crashed and was unable to restart the bike.

Héctor Barberá (Mapfre Aspar Team) had scored points in 19 of the past 20 races since he began his MotoGP career, but this race wasn’t to be for the Spaniard after crashing out on the opening lap with a nasty looking highside. Karel Abraham (Cardion ab Motoracing) who qualified ahead of the factory Ducati of Hayden in just his third GP start, had his first non-finish of his debut MotoGP campaign after an early off brought his race to a halt.

¿A qué aspira realmente el Athletic esta temporada?

Por Abel Romera

Una vez disputada doce jornadas ligueras, el Athletic está situado en la mitad de la tabla de clasificación, decidiendo aún cual será su objetivo para esta campaña 2010-2011. Los resultados y los números del conjunto dirigido por Joaquín Caparrós son clarividentes y marcan el que, al parecer, es el nivel real de los bilbaínos, a menos que los ‘leones’ demuestren lo contrario en lo que resta para el final de la primera vuelta y logren dar el do de pecho en la segunda.

Los de San Mamés se han enfrentado ya a los dos máximos candidatos al título (Real Madrid y Barcelona) y a los que tienen, a priori, más opciones de ocupar el resto de puestos que dan acceso a Europa (Villarreal, Valencia, Atlético de Madrid y Sevilla). Además, el conjunto vasco se las ha visto con el Mallorca y el Getafe, dos de los equipos con los que estuvieron peleando hasta el último suspiro de la pasada campaña para sellar un billete europeo que finalmente no pudieron conseguir. Así, el equipo vasco se ha enfrentado ya a siete de los nueve primeros clasificados.

Pues bien, los datos son tan claros que no ofrecen duda alguna. El conjunto rojiblanco no ha logrado sumar ni un solo punto de los dieciocho posibles ante los equipos más fuertes de la Liga a día de hoy (Real Madrid, Barcelona, Villarreal, Valencia, Atlético y Sevilla). Por el contrario, en sus enfrentamientos ante equipos teóricamente más débiles el Athletic se ha mostrado fuerte, logrando dieciséis puntos de los dieciocho posibles disputados ante Hércules, Sporting, Mallorca, Zaragoza, Getafe y Almería.

Visto así, el conjunto bilbaíno ha atravesado ya la fase más dura del campeonato y comienza ahora la más asequible. El próximo rival es Osasuna, que visitará San Mamés el próximo domingo. Una de las revelaciones de lo que va de temporada, la Real Sociedad, se enfrentará en el siguiente partido a los de Caparrós en la vuelta del mítico derbi vasco, que regresa tras el calvario donostiarra en Segunda durante tres campañas. Espanyol, Levante, Deportivo, Málaga y Racing serán el resto de obstáculos hasta la conclusión de la primera manga del campeonato. La segunda vuelta comenzará ante el Hércules, tres puntos también obligatorios para los chicos de Caparrós, que deben decidir ya si mirar para arriba o para abajo en la clasificación.
