On 04 Mei 2011 Jorge Lorenzo will celebrate his birthday with an age 24 years old. In such young age he has won three world championship Grand Prix. The two she won in the 250cc class (2006-2007) and another at the top of the MotoGP class (2010).
Career Path
Jorge Lorenzo was born in Palma de Mallorca on May 4, 1987. His GP career began in 2002 with the Derbi in the 125cc class. Debut ended with 21 points and are in a position to kelasemen-21 at the end. Lorenzo remained in the 125cc class until the next 2 years. The best result was 4th position kelaseman in 2004.
Season 2005, Lorenzo went up to the 250cc class to join the Fortuna Honda team. With the achievement of six podium finishes (4 runner-ups, 2 podium 3rd) he completed his first season in the 250cc class at the rank-5.
His racing career soared after joining the manufacturer Aprilia (with her sponsor) in the 2006 season. If time with Honda not even win the race, at this season a success Lorenzo won eight victories. This year the first time the Spanish rider won the world championship crown.
The following year, Lorenzo decided to stay in the 250cc class. Still with Aprilia, he successfully defended his world title with victory and 9 times the total 312 points.
Felt it was able to dominate, in this season Lorenzo began to "behave". Like celebrating a victory by putting the flag Lorenzo's Land, stylish a la Roman soldiers and also bring "twin" to the track.
Success 250cc world champion two seasons in a row finally got him up to the top class in 2008. Unmitigated, nicknamed the X-Fuera rider was immediately dipinang by the manufacturer to match Yamaha's Valentino Rossi.
Debut of The Mallorca on primary class is quite successful. He has managed to achieve victory in the series to-3 that took place in the Estoril circuit, Portugal. The first and last victory of the season. Total of six podium finishes and perched in a position to-4 kelasemen end. Title of Rookie of the Year then fell into his hands.
Armed with a season of experience in the primary classroom, Lorenzo Rossi's main rival in the 2009 season. However, due to his mental skills and still far less than his team-mate, Por Fuera had to settle for second to end the season in the MotoGP class as runner-up.
Jorge Lorenzo has matured in the year 2010. Two years to adapt to the Yamaha YZR-M1, Lorenzo appeared dominant this season. Moreover, added the absence of two main rivals Valentino Rossi and Dani Pedrosa in some series because of an injury. Lorenzo was unstoppable to win his first world title in the top class and the third title in all classes.
The Crasher & Bad Boy Icon
Still fresh in our memory, open debate that took place between Lorenzo vs Simoncelli in Estoril last series. No one is saying what Simoncelli, Lorenzo racing style in the past no less aggressive than him. Lorenzo never even got disqualified after the incident involving GP Motegi 2005, Alex de Angelis. Next race in Sepang, he also had only a spectator.
Affairs crashes, Lorenzo also "experts". If the count is calculated, the number of accident certainly more than the number of victories ever diarihnya. However, all that changed drastically since the 2010 season. Lorenzo bermetamorfose as a tactical rider. He's no longer a rider who always push yourself to win with the principle of "do or die!"
Wilco Zeelenberg presence as a manager could be one of the factors causing the change. The result was not disappointing. In the summer of 2010, Lorenzo became the only rider who always start and always managed to finish at least in a position to-4.
These changes are then gave birth to stamp that he is a rider who just want to play it safe and do not dare to fight. However, with the achievement of 9 time series champion, 5 times a runner-up, and a podium finish 3rd and 4th respectively 2 times it's not quite right if he just sort of playing "safe".
Another oblique accusation especially if not the world champions only thanks to luck and capital motors perfectly developed by Valentino Rossi.
Whatever they say, Jorge Lorenzo still be remembered as one of the world MotoGP champion. And suppose this year he did not amampu defend champion title, at least he achieved victory at Jerez last series was enough to make it better than Alex Criville, Kenny Roberts Jr. and Nicky Hayden. Three former world champions are not even able to gain the victory after successfully captured the crown in the top class (GP500/MotoGP).
Feliz Cumpleaños, Happy Birthday, Jorge ...
