Chinese Moto GP –Live on Ten Sports

MUMBAI: The Moto GP circus heads for one of the worlds most impressive circuits this weekend as they roll into Shanghai in China. The track only hosted its first Moto GP race in 2005 but is already acknowledged as one of the most impressive venues in the world. Huge grandstands overlook the pit and paddock complex for the 3.281 mile circuit. The bikes regularly exceed 200 miles per hour on two very fast straights.

After the Istanbul leg of the circuit, China will be the 4th leg of the season. Casey Stoner leads the way in his first season with the factory Ducati team, having taken victory at two of the first three races of the year. The Australian won the 250 cc race in China back in 2005, and will be out to extend on his ten-point lead over Valentino Rossi.

In the 250 cc, Jorge Lorenzo continues to lead the way, but lost out to Andrea Dovizioso in Istanbul. There is still 18 points between the two men, but the close contest in Istanbul is a good omen for a tight season.

In the 125cc, Gabor Talmacsi missed out on the top 3 in Istanbul but still leads the championship by 9 points from his teammate Hector Faubel. Watch out for 15 year old rookie Pol Espargaro, who’s been impressing the crowds this season.

Ten Sports broadcasts live coverage of every Moto GP race as well as motor sport action from GP 2 and Champ Car all season long.
