MOTOGP » Lorenzo stuns with crutches to second.


I don't agree with cem gur. I watch Lorenzo since it was racing in 250 with Pedrosa. At that time, you could see his talent. He does not crash a lot, what happened was a missfortune, maybe he is really pushing his luck beyond the limit ... so I find it strange that he crashed so many times in the last month. And about crashing... remember what Doohan said about Stoner 2 years ago? something like ... it's more easy to teach a FAST guy NOT to crash, than to teach a guy to go fast.

MOTOGP » Pedrosa 'too fast'.


Well a damaged engine means "end of the race". Period. So, would you prefere second place or a very high risk to DNF? He tried to keep up the pace and have up at the end. Overreving an engine damages it for sure, heats up too much, burns the oil, to much pressure in cilinders etc... and at 19000rpm I can't imagine at what pressure those engine parts are put. I'm not engine technician, I just know some basics... so maybe somebody else can give more details. DON'T try this at home (overreving car or bike)... you'll pay big money. About how many times they are using an engine, I really don't know. I don't think that too much although.
