Rossi Putuskan Memakai Ducati GP11.1

Motogp - Hingga beberapa hari lalu Valentino Rossi belum memutuskan akan menggunakan motor yang mana untuk balapan di Laguna Seca. Namun kini The Doctor mengonfirmasi kalau GP11.1 lah yang bakal dia geber.

Meski sudah menggunakan sasis motor untuk musim depan, Rossi tidak juga menunjukkan peningkatan performa dan kecepatan yang diinginkan. Dalam beberapa kesempatan dia malah kalah dari Nicky Hayden, yang masih memakai motor musim ini.

Kondisi itulah yang membuat Rossi terpaksa menyiapkan kedua motor untuk balapan di Amerika Serikat. GP11 dan GP11.1 disiapkan untuk kemudian dipilih mana yang lebih baik dan nantinya digunakan untuk membalap.

Setelah melewati dua sesi latihan bebas, Rossi dan tim Ducati akhirnya memutuskan untuk tetap menggunakan Desmosedici GP11.1 di Laguna Seca.

"Setelah melakukan pertemuan teknis dengan Jerry (Burgess) dan tim, kami memutuskan untuk melanjutkan dengan motor baru, jadi saya hanya akan menggunakan GP11.1," sahut Rossi di Autosports.

"Kami memulai dengan satu motor yang memakai seting Sachsenring, yang sudah memiliki perubahan signifikan dalam hal pembagian berat, sementara motor kedua punya seting standar. Saya lebih memilih satu yang dari Jerman," lanjut Rossi.

Rossi cuma duduk di posisi sembilan pada free practice pertama MotoGP AS, sementara pada latihan bebas kedua dia finis di posisi 10. Di dua kesempatan tersebut dia kalah cepat dibanding rekan setimnya Nicky Hayden.

Rossi is still very impatient With Ducati

MotoGp - Saya terkejut. Saya pikir dengan sedemikian banyak motor yang sudah dikendarai Valentino dengan baik, ia akan segera menemukan cara untuk mengendarinya," ujar Schwantz kepada MCN.

"Mungkin tidak seluruhnya ia berada di depan, tapi setidaknya ia konsisten bertarung di posisi lima besar dan mungkin sampai podium beberapa kali," imbuhnya.

Menilik kesulitan Rossi tersebut, Schwantz sendiri punya dugaan-dugaan. Satu hal yang ia yakini, kesabaran Rossi kali ini sangatlah diuji.

"Mungkin Valentino menyadari kalau ini bukan sesuatu yang bisa ia segera benahi, dan semakin banyak ia mengendarainya dan semakin banyak waktu pengembangan maka semakin baik."

"Tapi untuk keluar membalap dan berusaha keras untuk empat atau lima lap dan memimpin di balapan, dan kemudian tidak tahu apa yang mesti dicoba untuk pekan berikutnya, saya pikir ia sudah mengerjakan ini semua dengan kesabaran lebih besar ketimbang yang akan saya miliki," simpul Schwantz.

Valentino Rossi masih saja kesulitan tampil prima dengan Ducati. Performa Rossi itu mengejutkan mantan juara dunia Kevin Schwantz.

Rossi akan menghadapi balapan di Laguna Seca setelah pada seri sebelumnya, di MotoGP Jerman, menuai hasil terburuknya musim ini. Saat itu ia hanya finis di posisi sembilan setelah mencatatkan waktu kualifikasi nomor dua dari belakang.

Sejauh ini Rossi memang belum bisa tampil meyakinkan bersama Ducati yang mulai dibelanya musim ini. Penggunaan GP11.1 belakangan pun tidak membuat performanya membaik.

Akibat hasil-hasil tidak memuaskan tersebut, pada MotoGP AS akhir pekan ini Rossi pun menyiapkan dua jenis motor yang berbeda.

Kesulitan yang sedang dialami Rossi, yang musim lalu membela Yamaha, tersebut disambut keterkejutan dari Schwantz yang pernah jadi juara dunia 500cc pada tahun 1993 silam.

Jelang Motogp Laguna Seca 2011

Burges Kembali, Rossi harus memilih

Motogp - Sudah dua balapan rossi tidak didampingi mekanik andalannya jerremy burges, ketidakhadiran sang mekanik sangat dirasakan pengaruhnya terhadap performa the doctor. bagaimana tidak, dengan julukan king of mugello rossi hanya mampu finis ke-6 disirkuit yang di rajainya serta hasil terburuk musim ini disachsenring yaitu start dari posisi 16 dari 17 pembalap dan finish di posisi 9.

Jerremy burges akan kembali akhir pekan nanti untuk mendampingi rossi setelah dia pulang ke kampung halamannya di australia karena harus menunggui istrinya yang di vonis kanker payudara. Kedatangan jerry di laguna seca langsung mendapatkan tugas yang berat yaitu dengan dua pilihan motor untuk the doctor ducati GP11 atau Ducati GP11.1

Setelah menjalani tiga balapan menggunakan GP11.1, the doctor pernah mengungkapkan ingin kembali memakai sasis lama yaitu Ducati GP11. The doctor bertugas menentukan motor mana yang akan di pakai di race laguna seca.Dia harus membandingkan dua motor di latihan bebas mulai jumat nanti.

Memang membandingkan dua motor bukan hal mudah, serta mengurangi fokus tim untuk menjalani race nanti. Tapi hal ini harus di lakukan guna mendapatkan hasil terbaik dan untuk jangka panjang.

"Saya pikir kami akan mencoba kedua jenis tipe Desmosedici pada hari Jumat sehingga kami bisa membandingkan keduanya dan melakukan perbaikan pada keduanya dalam jangka pendek dan untuk jangka panjang, karena kami ingin belajar sebanyak mungkin," sahut Rossi seperti dikutip dari Ultimate Motor Cycling.

Menggunakan dua motor dan kemudian membandingkan performanya jelas bukan hal yang mudah dilakukan. Selain itu hal tersebut justru mengurangi fokus tim untuk menghadapi balapan. Namun demi performa yang lebih baik di balapan-balapan berikutnya, hal tersebut dianggap harus dilakukan.

"Kami sadar itu akan sulit karena kami juga harus mempersiapkan diri untuk balapan, tapi demi meningkatkan kemampuan motor sangat penting untuk mencoba semua kemungkinan," tuntas Rossi.
