Valentino Rossi will fight to win his 99th victory (and second victory of the 2009 MotoGP season) at Mugello, as he seeks to overturn Fiat Yamaha team-mate Jorge Lorenzo's one-point advantage. Rossi is determined to forget his French MotoGP misery and his first non-points since 2007 and to claim his eighth home victory in a row at this weekend's Italian Grand Prix.

Valentino Rossi predicts there will be a great battle in Italian GP at Mugello on Sunday after the top four riders spotted the top four places in Friday opening pratice.
Rossi, who's seeking his eighth consecutive Italian GP victory, was forced into second spot by Fiat Yamaha team-mate Jorge Lorenzo, with Casey Stoner claiming third spot ahead of triple 2009 podium finisher Spaniard Dani Pedrosa.
"Mugello is a great track for me and it doesn't matter if it comes after a bad race or a good one," said the reigning MotoGP champion Valentino Rossi, who finished 16th and last after slipping and getting penalty for speeding at pit lane last time out at Le Mans.

Jorge Lorenzo hasn't stopped showing his awesome performance by claiming pole position for Italian GP at Mugello. Meanwhile another Yamaha rider, Valentino Rossi, will have to start his pursuit for an eighth Mugello victory from second row, having been pushed back to fourth by Casey Stoner and MotoGP veteran Loris Capirossi.

Jorge Lorenzo could become the first rider to defeat Valentino Rossi at his home grand prix since 2001. But first the Spaniard must win the Italian MotoGP race, something he failed to do last time he qualified on pole, during his own home race at Jerez.

This type of motor sport can be traced back to the early 1900's, when powerboats started becoming popular. For those who enjoy boat racing, hydroplane boats are the watercraft of choice. Boat racing is yet another motor sport enjoyed by fans as well as by those who engage in the fast paced, often dangerous motor sport. All of this makes for quite an exciting spectacle for the motor sport fan. Dirt bike racing is often held on a dirt filled track, sometimes inside a large arena, and the grounds the drivers must cover include hills, hair pin turns and steep inclines.
Each individual type of automobile racing also has a specific type of track that the race is held one. Motor sport fans who just can't get enough of automobile racing have a diversity of different type of racing to choose from, all of which include different types of cars and different rules and regulations that govern this particular motor sport. Some other motor sports include tractor and truck pulling, and while these events don't necessarily involve a race, some type of competition always exists. Some of the motor sports enjoyed by Americans include auto racing, truck racing, boat racing, motorcycle racing, as well as ATV racing.
There are many types of motor sports and most of them involve some type of race.

This racetrack is known for being long and modern, and where dealing with the rain is something very characteristic of it. Besides having the opportunity to witness Lorenzo proclaim himself as the champion, the 2010 Shell Advance Malaysian Motorcycle Grand Prix will also have a special celebration, as this will be 20th anniversary of the competition, which hosted its first race in 1991. Three years later Lorenzo finds himself at the gates of another title, only that this time there is a big difference: it would be his first Moto GP championship. This racetrack brings good memories to the Spaniard rider, since this is where his second Moto2 championship was accomplished in 2007.
As the 2010 MotoGP championship comes closer to an end with just four races left –Malaysia, Australia, Portugal, and Valencia- , Jorge Lorenzo will have his first chance to crown himself as the champion if he wins in Sepang. A victory in the Malaysian Grand Prix from Lorenzo would decide the MotoGP championship in his favor.
