Confirmed in Yamaha press release.
Also doubtful for Valencia apparently, real shame. At least the surgery was successful so he should be alright in the long term. http://twitter.com/#!/YamahaMotoGP
Lorenzo came out of the final corner in the last minute of the warm up session wabbling about. He was situated for a high speed high-side. He was holding on as his M1 was bucking him off. Unfortunately, he held on too long. He slammed down on the asphalt with the left side of the bike having...

I found this article fascinating...Jorge does not appear bitter at all at losing in such dramatic fashion at Catalunya.
It's very rare to see a rider drop the macho 'I only lose when something goes wrong on my end' and give credit to another rider...

Rossi said in an interview for the italian news paper "La Stampa" that Lorenzo should go and thank him for giving JLo such a worthy bike.
He also added that Stoner and Lorenzo are the most "talented" riders he's faced. (yeah now try and fix it )...
I only started watching MotoGP last year and there is nobody else I know who does. So I really was starting from scratch. My take on Lorenzo was he was bloody fast but it seemed like he was trying to hard to be likeable. All of the post victory celebrations seemed so forced. I wanted to like...
So Gavin Emmett and Matthew Roberts have both just posted the following on Twitter "Stoner, Lorenzo and Pedrosa just confirmed in the front row press conference that they will not go to Japan." They apparently are not the only riders who will not be going to Japan because of fears about the...
Anyone seen the Jorge Lorenzo documentary, "JORGE" ????
Really worth watching if you get the chance.
Must admit, I have a new level of respect for this guy. It was released Dec 2010, so covers all the 2010 season.
We need something to fight Stoner.
Yeah, get faster mothafuker; and get in line.

(Oh, and for those tempted to say Yamaha has digressed without the Boy-wonder Developer, take a good look at the current bike he's now had half a year to develop, not to mention the endless...
Very interesting interview with Lorenzo (video in italian)

my italian is very mediocre but from what i understand:
- he is asked if the finger injury hampered him in the race and he...
In the last 44 races (starting from RSM08) Lorenzo qualified on the front row an incredible 41 times. Just for comparison:
Lorenzo 41/44
Stoner 30/41
Pedrosa 23/42
Rossi 20/40
Dovizioso 3/44
Pedrosa and Rossi were of course hindered by racing injured at times but still...
Just curious what you guys think would have happened if it were Rossi and Lorenzo that crashed in Jerez. Rossi being the most popular MotoGP rider and Lorenzo another popular rider racing in his home grand prix.
Pretty clever use of his initials

An interesting tidbit that i did not realize, he will be the first to run the #1 plate since Wayne Rainey in 93

You gotta admit, Jorge Lorenzo and Valentino Rossi did an absolutely fantastic job of never revealing the degree of which...
I keep hearing the assertion that Lorenzo was leading Rossi after the third round(before Rossi got injured in the fourth round's practice at Mugello), and that this means Jorge would have outridden Valentino all season without the injury of the famous number 46. I'm not sure that this is a sound...
