The premier class has been commissioned, with the triumph of Lorenzo, to close the treble winning Spanish (Márquez in Moto2 and Moto3 Viñales) in the first round of the 2012 campaign. The maximum displacement career has lived several places: the start dominated by Lorenzo, Stoner replica that went beyond the three turns and got more than a second ahead, and subsequent comeback Spaniard, with Pedrosa in its wake. Without doubt, the climax of the twenty laps of the round catarí has come with four to the conclusion, when the Yamaha was aware of the Australian to go solo to the finish. In the end, Lorenzo first, second and Stoner Pedrosa third. The favorites for the crown of MotoGP have shown that they are not by chance.
For more than luck is determined to spoil the party for POWER ELECTRONICS Aspar riders, they have continued riding to change your destiny. Both Randy De Puniet and Aleix Espargaró have fought for twenty laps of the first race of the year to come through Tasting. The French came morally diminished after two crashes in practice, then a fault in the gearbox, mid career, made him take a good scare at the end of line. Gradually, French has become a mess in the test, has been going up positions and improve their records. In the end it finished thirteenth, second best MotoGP rider of the new concept. Across the POWER ELECTRONICS Aspar box, Aleix Espargaró continued gripped by the problems of sub-turns and bounces on his motorcycle. Far from being discouraged, the Granollers has fought to end the first race of his return to MotoGP in a creditable 15th place.
Randy De Puniet:
"Overall it has been a very strange weekend. I suffered two falls and found a bike that did not behave the same as in Jerez, I guess the poor grip of this track. Those little things made me lose some confidence and start the race with some doubts, but fortunately the situation has changed. After the first few laps I started to come back and almost came to Edwards, mid career pity that we had a problem with the gearbox. A final line could not take gear, so I lost time and again I have had to overcome. Near the end of the test I started to notice the lack of grip in the rear wheel, it seems that we have gone wrong with the suspension settings. The good news is that we have spare few drawbacks we have encountered. At the end we were the second CRT and thirteenth overall, I think is a good result. We must follow the same line in Jerez to shoot as fast as in past practice. "
Aleix Espargaró:
"During the race I put everything on my part and the result has been quite positive, but I'm a little disappointed Catar, because we have failed to solve the problems we have pursued rebounds this weekend. It's strange but it's been four days, although we thought the road to take, we have not solved our problems. This touched my morals, but by no means going to desmotivarme, the championship is very long and we will get around it somehow. Both the team and I have worked very well and will continue to Jerez, there to improve our situation. We have two weeks to find solutions and restore maximum motivation. "
