4th So the race starts today for MotoGP from France and the legendary track of Le Mans.
The track has a length of 4.180 mm and has a width of 13 meters. It has 4 left turns, 9 right while the longest straight is 674 meters. The track was built at 1966 five kilometers south of the city of Le Mans. The 1995 track came out of the races following the serious accident of Spanish rider Alberto Puig. So the track has been upgraded to 2000 and to date it is one of the most legendary slopes in the world.
In the race now Stoner has established himself at the top after his victory at Estoril. His great opponent Lorenzo, despite winning the first match, was attacked by Stoner and lost the previous two matches. So the Spaniard's strategy needs to be revised to be able to hit the Australian rider.
The positive news comes at last from Ducati and Rossi, as Estoril showed stability even though he finished at 7η position.
Crutchlow with Tech3 Yamaha who is firmly in the top five is certainly a big surprise.
Let's look at the best odds for the top five favorites:
Casey Stoner @ 1.6
Jorge Lorenzo @ 3.25
Dani Pedrosa @ 10
Cal Crutchlow @ 81
Valentino Rossi @ 101
