Yamaha Factory Racing riders Jorge Lorenzo and Ben Spies
head back to Spain this week for round 14 of the 2012 season, the Grand Prix of
Aragón on the 30th September.
Championship leader Lorenzo prepares for his penultimate
home race of the year bolstered by the recent Aragón test which saw both he and
his team mate make big improvements to their set up for the Motorland circuit.
A win has so far eluded him in Aragón, scoring a third place podium finish in
2011 and just missing the podium by less than a tenth of a second in 2010. A
convincing victory at the last round in Misano puts Lorenzo 38 points clear of
closest rival Dani Pedrosa as the Championship heads into the final five races
of the season.
Team mate Spies arrives in Aragón looking to build on his
fifth place finish in Misano following a trouble free weekend for the incident
dogged Texan. With two fifth place finishes at the Motorland circuit from 2010
and 2011 already achieved, Spies will be looking to capitalize on the recent
testing to fight for the strongest result possible.
"Aragon has not been the strongest track for us in the
last two years, but I think we have found something in recent testing which
will help us to be more competitive here. We will try to make a good show for
all the Spanish fans who come to see us and we will try to win."
