Motogp final round at Valencia

The Motogp season will come to a conclusion this week-end in Valencia where the final round of the campaign will take place on the Ricardo Tormo circuit ( see our INSIDE magazine).

As our thoughts are still with Marco's Simoncelli family and friends, the motogp community will have to refocus on racing with plenty of positions to be decided.

For every rider it will be the last opportunity to show their skill and to get the best result.
For Dominique the challenge is to finish in front of his direct opponent for a top ten finish in the ranking, his recent result at Sepang show us the potential is there, but it is hard work of motivation determination and commitment.
Last year it was Kenan's second race with the team, this year it is the last one for him and for us as a team but this won't stop us to do our best we can to finish on a high note.
