This weekend, it's the home of Cal Crutchlow which hosts the MotoGP for a twelfth round of the calendar of a season currently dominated by the Honda of Marc Marquez. A Honda which is also in the hands of the stage local who works within the LCR team. In 2010, he won on this track while he was in Superbike, in 2016, he took pole position and finished second while last year he certainly finished fourth but less than two seconds behind the winner. So why not a victory this year?
An ambition which is even displayed by the main person concerned during this arms vigil: “ I have one goal going to Silverstone, and that is victory. It will obviously be difficult for me to challenge for the title so why not go and win a few more races » comments the winner in Argentina this season on crash.net.
« I was competitive last year at Silverstone, and I intend to be competitive again this year. However, there are seven other riders who can also win and you have no idea what these guys are capable of doing on a motorcycle. But I was good during the last two Grands Prix and I hope we will continue like this. I hope we don't get rain. I prefer a very dry track ».
