Stoner said, “I'm looking forward to going to Laguna Seca, it's a circuit I've always enjoyed quite good results at and we've always been naturally quite fast there. The track itself is a very tight and technical track, there are lots of sweeping gradients and unusual corners with a lot of camber, so you need to be delicate on the track and not ‘attack’ it too much.”
The Australian rider and his team hope to improve their strategy and work to get better results as compared to the last three race weekends. Though Stoner has scored three podiums in the last three events but his satisfaction lies in winning races which is also important for maintaining the championship lead.
The US Grand Prix is the sixth event in the last eight-week span of the 2011 MotoGP season which has given very little time for the teams to try out their packages. However, Stoner said he likes to race at Laguna Seca, the crowd and atmosphere.
On the other hand, Dovizioso said, “I really look forward to racing in Laguna Seca. I have always had a good feeling with this track and I like the whole ambience there. We arrive very motivated and it’s good that we race straight after Sachsenring.”
The Italian rider is content with his improved race pace, as he was streaming in top riders through whole race. Occasionally, he swapped places with both of his teammates but finally finished fourth at Sachsenring.
The priority for Dovizioso is to keep a hold on the podium position but it is always better to strive for the win. In all the fights, the Italian has been focused to gain good points and shorten up the points’ gap from Jorge Lorenzo and leader Casey Stoner.
Their third teammate Dani Pedrosa has been celebrating his German Grand Prix success with his family since the last few days.
Let’s see how the Repsol Honda trio fares at the Mazda Raceway circuit at Laguna Seca this weekend.
