A race to legend, that has charmed even the penguins of Phillip Island, offers an unexpected outcome, four aces phenomenal, a World everything to play two rounds to go (Sepang next Sunday, then the grand final of 8 November in Valencia) that show the Australian GP !!! In a sprint to four triumphs Marquez, ahead of Lorenzo, an amazing Iannone and a combative Rossi, who pays those horses in unless his Yamaha grants to rivals. Grand Prix legend, tussle with the first to the last meter, dozens of passes and controsorpassi, strategies and tactics that changed meter at a millisecond after millisecond, and also the impact of a motion (to Iannone) with a seagull … (with lethal consequences for the bird, and that could have been even worse for the Ducati!). Eventually Rossi sees reduced to just 11 points (296 to 285) and, paradoxically, Lorenzo must thank quell’Andrea Iannone with whom he had just had a fight at the end of qualifying on Saturday, for a trail used by the Ducati! Yet another twist of a World still far from writing the word “end.”

The race – You turn off the lights, light up the special, on a sunny Phillip Island: Iannone takes as lightning and burned the pole man Marquez and Lorenzo, with Rossi , who started seventh, came on the sixth. But it is only the first chapter of the saga that these phenomena draw in the first three rounds, in which Iannone, Lorenzo, Pedrosa and Marquez engage in duels and overtaking his controsorpassi! Valentino seems to keep the edge, but on the fourth lap is a masterpiece: Iannone passes at a point impossible, inside, is up to third! The deities of the engines seem to reward the Doctor, because immediately after Marquez, who is in front, goes off, and the Pesaro passes! The champion of the world reacts, so does the Pesaro, which passes followed by Iannone !! All finished? Not even as a joke! More passes and the end (but the battle continues!) Iannone and Marquez passes on Rossi, while Lorenzo was there before, but only for a second and a half! Curiously in full scrimmage Iannone has an accident with a … .gabbiano, appollaiatosi on track and that impacts (alas … we believe fatally) the motion of the Ducati! So far, the race of legend, with five laps all count !! 18 laps to go, Rossi and try to put Marquez, bravo to defend the attack raises the chase to Lorenzo, ahead now less than a second! And Valentino spring Carboncito, while Iannone is always there, and indeed in straight passes rivals and was in the second place, only to lose it in the two successive curves !! After the brawl, for qulache around positions stabilize: Lorenzo in front, Marquez in a palm, then Iannone, with Rossi in the ribs: the situation that, in the key-World, The Doctor can not accept! Ten laps to go Lorenzo and Marquez attacks !!! Ine to speed now eight are missing, but the gp seems just begun! Marquez hangs up and goes Por Fuera, but lasts a few hundred meters, because Lorenzo reacts back and forth in my head! And behind a palm raging Iannone, with Valentino, fourth, who is studying the situation! Meanwhile, the Ducati rider puts Marquez, but after half a lap the Spaniard goes over! Five laps to go and poker is served, but it is impossible to know in which order the axes will pass under the checkered flag! And here he is in fact Rossi, passing the Abruzzo of Ducati, which goes over the straights to be exceeded again after a couple of corners! Three laps to go Lorenzo extends his lead to half a second. And while trying to pass Rossi Marquez, Iannone puts both: incredible! Two laps to go Rossi is fourth with Lorenzo leading: World virtually reopened (never had been closed, the rest …). There she is basically the checkered flag: Rossi goes Iannone touching him, Marquez is one meter by Lorenzo! Marquez passed Lorenzo, Rossi Iannone goes over! Finishing order: Marquez, Lorenzo, Iannone, Rossi! Crazy and extraordinary in the best race of the year, the decade, perhaps of all time !!

Word Rossi – Obvious waiting for the comments of the leader of the standings; words came only after long discussions with the team (the day when Yamaha won the 37th constructors’ title in its history, ed), in which Valentino has re-analyzed not only the race but the whole weekend, “Too bad for the podium missed – said the Doctor – and shame because we have the wrong job in qualifying, Lorenzo otherwise would be beatable. In Sepang we have to go fast already in evidence, starting later and not to give advantages, even psychological. Iannone? A super race, when you fight for the podium is always given 100%. ”

Word to the podium – The joy of Marc Marquez, the 50th career victory: “During the race I felt good, but Lorenzo stretched advantage of our duel; then lap after lap the bike and the tires got up to temperature, and in the end I decided to play my all out attacking Jorge! It went well and I am happy because it is a success that rewards the great effort of the whole team. ” Satisfied Jorge Lorenzo: “Marquez has done a great race; when he overtook me, I tried to pass him, I believed, but at that point I had no time or space. Okay I still recovered a bit ‘of points of Rossi in Sepang now head already. ” “It was an incredible race, fantastic – says Iannone, wonderful third on a Ducati – and I am delighted because I struggled big with the best MotoGP riders, dueling on par! I thank my team for the great job done, and I promise you want to continue like this, fighting on par with the greatest. ”
