Lorenzo aiming to deny Rossi at 'home'


SAN MARINO: Championship leader Valentino Rossi and Yamaha team-mate Jorge Lorenzo will be on one of their most successful circuits in San Marino on Sunday, the 13th of 18 MotoGP races in 2015.

Rossi, who has finished on the podium in every race this season and brilliantly mastered the wet conditions to win at the most recent British GP, resides just 20 minutes away from the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli and has often tasted glory on what he describes as a “home” race.           The Italian, 36, will carry a 12 point lead over Lorenzo into the race while Honda’s two-time defending champion Marc Marquez slipped 77 points behind the ‘Doctor’ last time out and desperately needs to pick up his fourth win of the campaign after retiring at Silverstone.
