The Yamaha Riders are closely equal matched after just two rounds of the 2010 campaign. And now with high hopes they want to continuing to win in Le Mans
Lorenzo said,
“Last year I won in Le Mans in an amazing and crazy race,” he said. “I hope the fans aren’t waiting for a repeat this weekend! Of course the weather is always a risk in Le Mans, but I hope for sun. I’ve been on the podium twice there, last season and when I won my second 250cc title, so I am looking forward to trying again. I’ve had almost three weeks since Jerez and I know that I am ready for this second European race.”
He also said:
“Despite our victory in Jerez and taking the lead in the world standings I continue to think that I am not the favourite because the season is very long and it has only just started! I am very proud however because Jerez was my first victory at home in MotoGP.”
The italian rider Rossi seems feels much confident in his shoulder now after extended time of recuperation between races. He said,
“My shoulder is more or less recovered now so I hope I will be back to full strength in Le Mans,” he said. “Despite the disaster of last year’s race, Le Mans is a good track for me and the Yamaha always goes well there. The biggest problem is the weather, but after last year I think we deserve a sunny French GP!”
He also added,
“We’ve made a good start to the season, with the win in Qatar and then another podium, but we have also struggled with the bike in some areas and so we need to try to improve our performance. We had a good test after Jerez so I hope that we will be able to use that information to start strongly here.”
