The race story
Lorenzo, who admitted that race at the Sachsenring circuit is going to bring the fight exciting, starting with a good race. When the red light goes out, world champion in 2010 was immediately preceded the winning top position Stoner, and Pedrosa, who started from second place.
Meanwhile, teammate, Ben Spies, the trio followed the Honda, which was predicted would be the closest competitors in the ninth race of this series. In the rear sector, Valentino Rossi, who started from the 16th is slowly improving its position because it can occupy the position of 10. However, the performance is very disappointing GP11.1 Ducati makes "The Doctor" can only compete in the back row.
The remaining 21 laps during the race, Stoner took over the course of the race, and seems to be able to maintain that position. 2007 world champion looks comfortable, even though Lorenzo and Pedrosa continues to pose a threat. However, his position began to shake it by Lorenzo, who could then be preceded, followed by Pedrosa. Pedrosa maintains his position as leader of the race until the race 13 laps remaining.
However, Lorenzo made a small mistake when crossing the start / finish. The opportunity was utilized very well by Pedrosa to take over the course of the race, and he never touched again since that time. Even when the race five laps remaining, he widens the gap with Stoner, Lorenzo became 0.613 seconds.
If Pedrosa, who has fond memories at the Sachsenring, already safe in the front, then another case with the competition for second place. Stoner and Lorenzo take action of overtaking, the peak occurs before the finish. Yamaha champion managed to overtake Stoner and able to maintain his position to touch the finish line.
