MotoGP in Jerez, Spain 2016
Rossi’s lonely and fast laps

No, it’s not Lorenzo, who is able to break away from the field early on and drive one fastest lap after the other as confidently as he is lonely. It is Valentino Rossi who has a start-to-finish victory in Jerez like something out of a picture book.

Rossi achieved a start-to-finish victory in Jerez over a total of 27 laps. And the rest of the podium is identical to the ranking that is formed on the first lap, in the first two corners: 2nd Lorenzo, 3rd Marquez. A few corners later, Pedrosa sits down in front of Marquez. But it is not enough for the attack on the two Yamahas. In return, Lorenzo overtook his team-mate on the inside just a few corners before the end of the second lap, but only led a few meters, as Rossi immediately passed again. In the last corner of the 2nd lap, Marquez again grabs his teammate. And that’s it for Pedrosa in the battle for the podium.

4th lap in Jerez: The leading group is still made up of the factory riders from Yamaha and Honda, except that Rossi has now pulled out a little cushion, Marquez is very close to Lorenzo, Pedrosa is a bit behind in fourth place and is now must concentrate on not being overtaken by Aleix Espargaro on the Suzuki. Behind that, Vinales on P7 is really working hard to get even closer to Dovizioso on P6. In the 7th lap he managed to pull past the Ducati.

“This is a Lorenzoness performance”

Meanwhile, Valentino Rossi is doing his laps as the fastest driver in the field. Reminds something of Lorenzo, who is known for lying on P1, confidently and concentrated, like driving the fastest laps on rails. “This is a Lorenzoness performance by Valentino Rossi.”, The commentators from the MotoGP livestream report. After 8 laps, il Dottore was 1.5 seconds ahead.

After 9 rounds the end for Mr. Dovizioso. He notices his smoking stern and deviates from the ideal line. His race ended prematurely. At this point, Valentino Rossi has 2,372 seconds ahead. There are still 17 laps.

11 laps before the end of the race: Jorge Lorenzo is over half a second faster than Rosssi. Now one Yamaha chases the other, Marquez couldn’t keep up with Lorenzo.

9 laps to go: There are 2,343 seconds between Rossi and Lorenzo. The lead will be enough?

8 laps to go: 2,169 seconds. Marquez in 3rd place seems to be playing it safe to take 16 championship points.

7 laps to go: Rossi takes Lorenzo back 0.245 seconds. At the beginning of the 22nd lap, his lead was 2,251 seconds. And Pol Espargaro does an excellent job in 7th place against Iannone, who is driving directly behind him. 6 laps before the end he had to admit defeat to the works Ducati.

5 laps before the end of the race: Rossi drove out a 3,386 second buffer on Lorenzo. Not much seems to be happening anymore. Almost all pilots bring their current position over the finish line. Except for Stefan Bradl. He overtook Yonny Hernadez on the penultimate lap and crossed the finish line in 14th place.

It is Rossi’s first victory since the rain race in August 2015. He also fought his first Jerez pole since 2005 and his 7th MotoGP victory in Jerez.
