Valentino Rossi Misano 2012 Podium for Marco Simoncelli

The Misano GP just finished with very dramatically happened since the start of the race until the end of the race. At first the race forced to stop due the technical engine of Karel Abraham and some other said the starting light didn't function as well as it must to be.

And due of that little incident, all rider need to do warm up lap for one more time, and the drama continue but for this time come for Dani Pedrosa, he look got trouble on his engine and need to start from the back of the grid, but the bad luck not stop until that after force hard to catch up the other riders, he got crashed but this time not because his own engine but his back  wheel touched by Hector Barbera, and make both of riders crashed in the first lap. Really sad to look it happened when he was very close to get point by point to be World Champion 2012. Always something happened to stop it and always not came from himself. I'm not his huge fan but too look like this really make me sad and unhappy.

While that happened Lorenzo lead the race and keep it until finish line and one again make him strong on world standing to get his 2nd MotoGP World Champion 2012. But the one make all MotoGP lover extremely happy is Valentino Rossi. With all the charisma he has, he ride the bike very comfort even Stefan Bradly following tightly from behind. While they all try the best lap by lap, at the moment on lap 5, Cal Crutchlow crashed and out from his 5th place and he look hurtt with his leg but at the end of the race he on his official twitter account just said it will ok and will try again at Aragon.

And Valentino Rossi with his new frame and swing arm more focus and strong on his 2nd position, while the battle happened for 3rd place between Stefan Bradl, Alvaro Bautista and Andrea Dovizioso. But as we know Misano GP is MarcoGP #SuperSic, so believe or not, the power of him just come to push Alvaro Bautista's bike and make him can all out and get the 3rd place after did some battle against Andrea Dovizioso with a gap only +0.003 second (I don't know actually how to count so accurate like that)

And the real champion is of course Valentino Rossi, we know lot of riders can finish on 2nd place but when it was Valentino Rossi after very difficult season for him with that bike, it's really something amazing for all crowds about 45.000 people at Misano circuit and for millions of fans on around the world. He just show to us what the meaning of racing, what the meaning of never give up. Just clearly in every dark we will find the light. 

Really precious podium, Valentino Rossi finished 2nd place as Marco Simoncelli best friend and Alvaro Bautista for 3rd place as Marco Simoncelli Team.

Pieces Puzzle of MotoGP 2013 Almost Complete

Before Misano finally we know officially that's Ben Spies the rider from Yamaha Factory Team 2011 & 2012 will switch to Pramac Ducati Team which mean we can call it Satellite team. And the youngs rider will accompanying him for next year is the Italian Moto2 rider who very close with the nine times World Championship Valentino Rossi and he is Andrea Iannone.

For me I'm understand when Iannone move to satellite Ducati , it means for him he up class but I still wonder when Spies very brave to take offer from Ducati satellite, although that team said they both will get the same engine and specification with Nicky Hayden and Andrea Dovizioso on Ducati Factory Team. But with very difficult we can saw from Valentino Rossi for almost two seasons and also the hard to ride from other riders of that bike, is really very brave decision take by the American Ben Spies. Really looking forward to see him for next year. Maybe with what Valentino Rossi and the Ducati team did for the last two year and the join of Audi to this bike would be nice to see them improve and doing some battle with the other bike. Will be very very interesting to watch.

So with the rule one brand of bike only can bring 2 bikes for factory team and two bikes for satellite team, means we just need to wait Gresini Honda Team. This year they only have one rider from Spain is Alvaro Bautista, who on this year not so brilliant like before he did with Suzuki bike. But he still have a chance to get the seat but so many rumor said the Gresini Team seat will be offer to Scott Redding and Jonathan Rea rider who replace Stoner when he in recovery after his big crashed. But we still don't know yet until official announcement will come out. At least we need to watch first what Rea will bring from his first ride with Factory Honda bike on Misano race. And I hope he will goes well because he rides the best bike on this season. Let's wait and see.

When Gresini team announce his rider for next year it will make force some good riders to find another solution for next year. After notable seat for Factory and satellite the choice for them only CRT bike or move to Moto2 class. And it’s really not good at all. When we look good rider can't get a good bike to ride on this championship. The Organizer need to think fast for this problem and make this Championship safe and interesting to we watch.

And Just got confirmation from @birtymotogp timeline that's Karel Abraham will ride on MotoGP class with ApAprilia ART bike in CRT with Cardion AB Team. And for Hector Barbera, he still on some talks with various CRT bikes. Alvaro Bautista too already thinks to ride on CRT if he doesn’t get the satellite seat.

So for a while here the puzzle already done for MotoGP 2013 :

Factory Team:

- Honda: Dani Pedrosa and Marc Marquez

- Yamaha: Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo

- Ducati: Nicky Hayden and Andrea Divizioso

Satellite team:

- Yamaha: Cal Cruthlow and Bradley Smith 

- Ducati: Ben Spies and Andrea Iannone

- LCR: Stefan Bradl

And for CRT, honestly I really don't know who the riders will ride there, only the one I'm sure is Colin Edwards with NGM Forward and Karel Abraham

Hope the grid not too short for next year and hope the gap between bike to other bike not too far also. We need the old MotoGP back with the great Free Practice, Qualifying and also great Race. We love this sport a lot.

By the way I would like to say thanks to the great MotoGP writer I ever know, who very nicely to reply my question to their official account @birtymotogp and @motomatters , you help me to understand more about this sport and it's so brilliant. Thank you very much.

August 14th, Valentino Rossi Words to Ducati

August 14^th always be my special day. All my friends always sent me greetings and the one make me happy they always connect their  greetings with Valentino Rossi and lot of them give me present related with Valentino Rossi, also I got greetings from people who close with Valentino Rossi … they are Davide Brivio and Matteo Flamigni, really make my day……What a wonderful moment.

Just felt I’m very close with him as an idol. And on the date year by year , valentine Rossi doing something  always make me happy, what he did, … not related with me honestly but something make me as a fans happy and proud to have him.

And for this year on my special day, Valentino Rossi stops his silent, after official announcement that he will return to Yamaha for next two years.

Pic 1

He update on his official twitter account @ValeYellow46 in Italian (Pic 1), translate in English by @motomatters :  "It’s a real shame we could not be competitive with the Ducati, would have been very satisfying for me and for everyone, who worked with me and kept trying until the end. It would have been great, for all our fans, I’m sorry. But there are still 8 races to go, we will do our best to do some good race, see you at Indy”

We can see on his official statement, typing by himself how he was  so pleased with this situation, he just tell to us the bike can be competitive on the time, but his time is not enough waiting due his age. And he said sorry for all who maybe not agree with his decision. With his popularity he is so humble to said sorry like that and it’s the one make him so big and so lovable 

He knows maybe lot of bad comments will come with his decision also lot of risk if he can’t competitive next year. But trying is the thing we could not stop in any situation. Wheel is round and it keep turning  and could be on top or  on the bottom,  keep moving and always do the best.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          

Valentino Rossi And Yamaha for MotoGP 2013 - 2014

4 days before my Birthday on August, 10th 2012 finally to be witness of Valentino Rossi return to his blue baby for 2013 and 2014. After said good bye on Valencia and wearing shirt "Bye Bye Baby", the love story blossomed again between Valentino Rossi and his lady Yamaha M1.

Lot of fans is happy on his decision but many other fans are confused, sad and doubt with this decision. But it was natural things, as a fans who adore with him so much the one we always see from him is his spirit never give up, his smile in every race, even we never find his smile on both his lips and his eyes for almost one and half year. Too many hard things, too many crashes, too many tear on his married with the red lady.

But our loves add day by day, because we can see how incredible his mentalities to face the difficult moment like this. But Valentino Rossi is human like we all here, who have limit and maybe it was the limit, he has a good rider deserve to get a competitive bike. And he had decided. For me it was brave decision from him who chose to back to his past. When he can get a winning with this bike, he will be the winner on this game but if he can't be number one again, lot of people maybe will think different.

46 with this livery was awesome

If you ask me honestly the answer is I want to look him stay read and tame the bike but with very clear mind and my heart say the decision is the best way for all, him self, this sport (MotoGP) and all his fans. 

we'll miss this moment for next year, 
the perfect combination

He can ride orange, blue, red, blue again and many different colors but we’re his fans will stay together support him on yellow spirit because we're Yellow Army.

Good luck for next year and the rest of this season, I hope you will get some podium with the Duke. 

IF I WERE VALENTINO ROSSI

So many rumors, so many speculations about where Valentino Rossi will ride for next year. We never know until he said by himself, maybe in Indy or maybe in Brno. Nobody can say where until the nine times World Champion takes his decision.

In addition, lot of medias from Italy and other countries said Valentino Rossi already signed contract with Yamaha for next two years, but none official confirmation yet.

Me as his fans who live so far in Indonesia do not know anything,  just read and read all the news about him.

However, IF I WERE VALENTINO ROSSI, in situation like this I will do four actions to take a decision for my future:

1. I will read all what I have said, my statement on media, what I wrote on my book and all my old pictures on my career
2. Then I will say all success can not come in very easy, if in the past I can be very easy to be World Champion but maybe it is a bit different, keep optimistic and never give up but still be realistic. so I will put target if for one year again the success still not coming, I need to have another way and it must be another way, not be back to the previous  I have already done.
3. And I will say with more sure to stay on Ducati team for one year again, trying the best with my team and give statement the decision taken for only 1 year because it was my target. And for the next year after 2013, MotoGP will  have one new team for fighting . One factory team from Japan will back to this championship and could be very sweet if I can try four different factory bikes and challenge to be champion on there too.
4.  the last bu no least  I will following my fans on twitter, ..... name @dsulistiyo   *LOL

I never forget this moment

That what I will do IF I WERE VALENTINO ROSSI, every decision must have positive and negative sides, that’s why coin have two faces. But what I wrote only IF I WERE VALENTINO ROSSI, you could write and think different. So let's share on twitter what you will do and use hashtag #IfYou’reVale

I do love you :)

For me whatever his decision for next year, I always in his side, support and cheer him. Because he is  not only giving me inspiration whenever he hold the trophy but he always make my day with all his spirit in every race.

Laguna Seca 2012 is Nicky Hayden

The Laguna Seca circuit after delayed warming up due to the weather very foggy and cold just finished the race with very dramatic on Sunday July 29th, 2012.

So dramatic after two last races disappointed for Casey Stoner and he return back strong and show to us his talent   made him be the World Champion 2011, surely he passed Lorenzo with very good overtake and take him be the fastest for circuit with the famous corkcrow at corner 8. And Jorge Lorenzo took his  2nd place who made him more strong on the World Standing for this year and followed by Dani Pedrosa for the 3rd place.

And like always duo Yamaha tech 3 are Andrea Dovizioso who already got 3rd podium of this year and Cal Crutchlow did great battle and  a bit danger for both of them, and on that battle due to the broke of swing arm on Yamaha Factory bike pushed Ben Spies out from the track after his strong place on 4th position.

And very emotional situation came from the rider who for almost one and half year facing the difficult situation on his career, the nine times World Champion Valentino Rossi. He's still not finding  the ride style for making him able to enjoying ride the bike and the bike still not complete enough on the front tyre. Difficult to understand what the bike want and made him not get the best start only start from 10th place and almost finish for 8th place after passed Bautista, but the fortune was not on him at the moment in the corkcrow when he took a break and suddenly he lost his front and hard crash happen only 3 laps to go and he lost his opportunity to get a poin at Laguna Seca. But we're still grateful because he was ok and nothing hurt him.

It was very sad moment for him, the team and of course his fans, but Valentino Rossi never lost any respet from us, all his fans still supporting and be proud to have him to be an idol.  And he never lost the attention of many team and sponsor who want work together with him. That's why it's really difficult for him to take decision what team he will choice to work together next.

I read many time lot of fans and media wrote and want look him be the World Champion again and doing a battle on the front row like we always look every moment in his carrer and they all want Valentino Rossi back to Yamaha. I'm agree with that, just one point I didn't agree back to the old team. #IfI'mRossi I would like to stay with the Ducati and continue to develope the bike and try again on next two years to be World Champion and record in history be the World Champion on three different bikes. Must be awesome and always be awesome to feel that after very long and difficult moment. It's just my opinion, all can have a different one.

And the next moment we never forget in Laguna Seca 2012 came from Nicky Hayden. Nicky Hayden on his home race with his new helmet with very unique design, who made his full face helmet look like half face helmet, very interesting. And he really did a great job there after have difficult start on 8th place and very difficult on track he calmly get a point after finished on sixth place.

Not only having a great race and result, Nicky Hayden also show to us what means of sportmanship, after the chequered flag waved, Nicky stoped his bike and pick up Valentino Rossi on his bike and  gave lift for Valentino Rossi to give some waving for all his fans who came from around the world to see and watch him. Really sweet and fantastic moment, very lovely to watching the team mate respect and care with each other. Maybe the rider of Ducati, who's name Valentino Rossi and Nicky Hayden can't get a lot podium like other factory team but they got a lot of respect and proudness from us and show to us what means of friendship.

Last but not least HAPPY BIRTHDAY NICKY HAYDEN on July 30th, always happy and success around you and keep humble and nice like you always did. Bless you The Kentucky Kid. Really grateful knowing you in the real life even only  in MotoGP Asia . Let's Get it from Indonesia

Farewell Email to Yamaha from Ben Spies

When MotoGP lover counting the day for waiting announce from Yamaha Factory about who will be the next rider of them to be Jorge Lorenzo Team mate, the calm man from USA born July 11, 1984 who also we all know him as ELBOWZ, due from his riding style just sent email toSuperbikeplanet.com at June 24th, 2012 about his decision to leave Yamaha. But like he said on that email he can't tell more about the reason and where he will ride for next year. So homework for all MotoGP fans to guess how the position of riders on factory bike just add and will more complicate to finish the puzzle.

Here the outstanding homework on MotoGP before the round 10 in Laguna Seca circuit:

1. After Casey Stoner Retire the rumor on HRC team just done already when this team official announcement about Dani Pedrosa and Marc Marquez after break the Rookie rule, will ride for the next two years. but still have question about the mega project for their satelite team
2. Nicky Hayden rumor about he will leave MotoGP and ride on WSBK, but Nicky clarified already he doesn't have any discussion about it and he also said he had a good discussion with Ducati team and will know soon what the final decision around Laguna Seca
3. After good podium Italian rider Andrea Dovizioso some rumors said he will move to WSBK if he doesn't get Factory bike for next year. Still big question where he will ride for
4. The British rider Cal Crutchlow after heroic rode in his home race Silverstone who got offer from Ducati factory, but it's still pending after we don't know when will be official news.
5. The next home work is about will Yamaha have a same riders position for next two years already answered by the rider him self. . And now add by where Ben Spies will ride the bike for the future. He could ride in MotoGP championship or back to WSBK or maybe he stop riding the bike just like World Champion 2011 Casey Stoner. We still don't know not clue at all from any media, the team or Ben Spies. Be a big question mark.
6. And the next and mega puzzle is where Valentino Rossi will be anchored his heart for next year. And I think when this mega question can answer all the home work will be easy to finish and than we can put full concentrating on the rest of 2012 MotoGP championship.

                                        
 Again, we need to honest all news and curiosity to the market for 2013 year centralize to one rider who always get a lot attention in this sport and the rider name is Valentino Rossi.

Good luck for Ben Spies for whatever his plan for the future, because like I knew after couple time met him in live and watching his performance on this sport, he is really the good person, very nice even less of smile and always interesting to watch especially when he rode the bike on WSBK Championship.
