Bridgestone Prior to the Czech Moto GP
This makes for challenges in terms of tyres handling the driving. This circuit also causes extreme average speed levels, as much as 166 kmph - a record made by Jorge Lorenzo the previous year. Lorenzo owns a 72 point lead in the 10th round of the previous season. He finished ahead of Dani Pedrosa, Andrea Dovizioso, Casey Stoner, and finally Valentino Rossi, who missed his previous four races due to injuries.
