Spanish Yamaha Factory rider Jorge Lorenzo became MotoGP
World Champion for a second time at Phillip Island Australia, having finished second to home hero Casey Stoner down under. Lorenzo's fellow compatriot and title rival Dani Pedrosa fell of his Honda machine in the second lap after taking the lead. From then on, Lorenzo cruised to his second MotoGP title as Australian Casey Stoner stormed to his sixth consecutive victory at Phillip Island.
“What a day!” the Yamaha rider said. “I’m
very happy! It was easier than I expected because Dani made a mistake in
a corner and crashed. I wanted to keep up with Casey, but he was so
strong. Today, all I had to do was finish the race and I have become World
Champion for the second time. It’s such a sweet feeling! I want to thank
all the team, Yamaha, my family, my friends, sponsors and fans who
support me. Today is an amazing moment. We’ve been very patient, very
concentrated and finally the world title is here!”
