The final result is quite impressive when we look at the numbers. En compétition, il est crucial de s'extirper le plus vite possible du peloton, sur route ouverte, c'est pour s'amuser au feux. (Even considering that the BMW is less powerful than the MotoGP machine). After the Monday test, he added: “We found something for the acceleration, but it was just a first step. Et moto GP surment plus rapide de 0-200 et 0-300 car bcoup – lourd et une GP TURBO mais interdit car s’envolerai à plus de 400 km/h ? Destiné à l’origine au freinage et à être actif, plutôt qu’en phase d’accélération et contrôlé par le pilote, le système de correction de l’assiette de la moto en roulant avait été breveté en 2002 par Claudio Domenicali, à l’époque Responsable de Ducati Corse et actuellement PDG de Ducati Motor Holding. No Red Bull for Tech3 KTM bikes in 2021 | They still have wings though…. For the 2007 season Dorna slowed the bikes down by introducing new regulations that saw engines shrunk from 990 cc to 800 cc. The mighty GP18 is ballistic, hitting 350 km/h from rest in 14.27 seconds, and has the power to hit the limiter in top at a giddy 368 km/h. It’s no surprise that the Desmocedici GP18 takes the lead after 30 km/h and clears off from that point forward. It’s the advanced MotoGP electronics that allow for the Desmo GP18 to faultlessly accelerate off the line. VIDEO: Which F1 drivers are most in need of a stronger 2021? If you are spinning more than wheelieing, the traction control wins and the [ECU] system delivers the torque reduction.". "Let's assume the calibration of the wheelie control is too restrictive - so that it cuts before the bike even wheelies, or cuts when the wheelie is not a problem - then you are not accelerating enough. At this stage of development with road bike electronic assistance, to launch consistently well, often the traction control and anti wheelie are turned off in the hands of the most skilled riders. During last weekend's struggles at the slippery Spanish MotoGP, Rossi again described the M1's problems as 25% mechanical and 75% electronics. L’Aprilia perd du terrain à chaque phase d’accélération, notamment sur le premier et le deuxième rapport ». In practice the gluey stickiness of modern tyres allows more than 1G grip, even with no Aero. It is these numbers that are referred to by Cecchinelli as calibration. Loves watching racing and riding his TL1000S or R1. The answer, according to MotoGP Director Of Technology Corrado Cecchinelli, is "by means of calibration.". For the specific case of improving straight-line acceleration: "The strategies that would normally operate are basically just traction control and wheelie control. To date, road bike electronic assists are more effective on track and while powering from one corner to the next. Right from the introduction of the four-stroke era in the premier class back in 2002, top speeds have been increasing incrementally north of what the two-strokes could muster from their ferocious smaller capacity motors. MotoE, officially the FIM Enel MotoE World Cup, is a class of motorcycle racing that uses only electric motorcycles.The series is sanctioned by the FIM and the inaugural season in 2019 was due to support MotoGP at five of the European circuits. It’s even more fascinating to speculate what Ducati’s GP48 will be like, and how fast it might be if we continue on this performance arc. The ZX-10R went past me just as I hooked third, then by the time I was in top he was at least 100 metres or more ahead of me. In recent years, aerodynamic ‘winglets’ have played an increasingly important role in MotoGP and are … their power is too much for even a world class rider to deftly control a launch without burning through a clutch in the process. ", In another exchange with the media, Rossi said: "During last year Honda and Ducati put a lot of money and a lot of people to work around the electronics. Today marks the end of the V-Twin superbike era, with Ducati announcing its 2018 Panigale will run a counter-rotating 90-degree V4 engine. converting energy into forward motion compared to a fully fledged MotoGP bike. It’s hard to comprehend something being more accelerative than one of those ballistic and evocative smelling machines – but today’s machines are 38 km/h quicker, a figure that is pretty mesmerising. Even Kawasaki’s ballistic Supercharged H2R is not a match for the Desmosedici GP18. Maybe 10-20 years from now we’ll be riding road bikes that accelerate like the Desmo GP18. The Ducati MotoGP bike only needs 465 metres to reach 300 km/h while the S1000RR needs 1104 metres. Part 2, VIDEO: Who were the top 10 drivers of the 2020 F1 season? The difference is in aero. To be fair to the little two-strokes, modern electronics and tyres would’ve seen them reach slightly higher speeds at Mugello, as translating their brutal power delivery in to forward momentum was uniquely challenging, and a completely analog affair totally reliant on clever carb/power-valve tweaking and a delicately skillful hand. Remember… thing is, I was not alone, there was a fella on a newerer and shinierer piece of metal and plastic, and he had more power horses than me, probably 30 odd more at the wheels. A fire in March 2019 involving recharging batteries destroyed the special facility and the race machines at Circuito de Jerez, Spain. 'It's a game of being on the right side of the limit, but as close as possible' - MotoGP Director Of Technology Corrado Cecchinelli. It’s the advanced MotoGP electronics that allow for the Desmo GP18 to faultlessly accelerate off the line. "This is common with traction control in road cars. At around 180kph, the electronics take full control in the F1 car, while MotoGP riders can still work the throttle. Turning off the electronic assistance is not an option for MotoGP bikes, as. "In the simplest case of straight-line acceleration on dry tarmac, the limit is actually wheelieing. As speeds at some of the faster tracks, such as Catalunya and Mugello, got north of 330 km/h, Dorna became concerned and recognised that these speeds could present an  unnecessary safety risk in a sport that was already dangerous enough. If one of the two finds a reason to reduce the torque, it sends a torque reduction request. Ducati has pretty much ruled the top speed roost since the Desmosedici joined the ranks of MotoGP some 15 years ago. The H2R need 935 metres to hit 320 km/h while the Ducati almost cuts the distance in half, requiring only 560 metres. High-res images of the gorgeous 2021 KTM RC16 + Video, Android Auto now available on Africa Twin, Suzuki rewards early Hayabusa pre-orders with $1000 in bonuses, Marc Marquez undergoes scans that confirm good progress, Benavides retains Dakar lead in penultimate stage | Daniel Sanders fourth, Flashback Friday | Shawn Giles announced his retirement in 2011, 2020 North Brisbane Cup category winners declared. MotoGP bike vs Kawsaki H2R. Chain final drive, Indirect electronic injection, four throttle bodies with injectors above and below the butterfly valves. Interestingly and matching Petrucci’s claims that his Pramac Ducati made 280bhp, to achieve the acceleration times in our graph, our virtual Ducati needed 285bhp. Honda won ten 500cc World Championships with the NSR500 from 1984 to 2002, with six in a row from 1994 to 1999.With more than 100 wins to its credit, the NSR500 is the most dominant force in modern Grand Prix motorcycle racing. For example, in the braking portion of Mugello's turn 1, Brembo recorded a case in which braking brought a bike from 355 km/h to 90 km/h in only 5.2 seconds, and in less than 300 m! Une course insolite entre une F1, une moto GP et une V8 Supercar Par la rédaction le 20 octobre 2014 à 11:58 À lire plus tard Sauvegardé Suivre #insolite #insolite Suivi MotoGP 0-200 mph in 10.93! After this point the MotoGP bike really gaps the S1000RR convincingly. The Pit Stop: Should Mercedes replace Bottas with Russell for F1 2021. The 2021 RC213V has a modified fairing to reach the maximum performance balancing acceleration, handling and braking through the management of airflow. In Moto 2 all bikes use Honda 600 engines and Dunlop tires. A recent MotoGP video I watched showed some of the differences between Moto3, Moto2, and MotoGP bikes. Le Grand Prix d'Autriche en 10 moments historiques. Which is: Getting inputs, thinking about the inputs and outputting a torque reduction request. Mugello’s main straight is just over a kilometre long, (1141m) and at least 300 metres of its length is required to haul up 230kg of motorcycle, fuel and rider, braking from 350 km/h to 120 km/h in order to make San Donato, if you are not to faceplant the kitty litter that is. Andrea Dovizioso recently set a new MotoGP maximum speed record at Mugello when he clocked an eye watering 356.5 km/h during the race on the Factory Ducati. To date, road bike electronic assists are more effective on track and while powering from one corner to the next. Despite my enthusiasm, I was clearly holding this local chap up, and he was evidently late for his Arvo sonnellino pomeridiano as he was right up my exhaust. As MotoGP™ teams and riders prepare for three weeks of racing, so do Michelin and they start at Motegi for the Motul Grand Prix of Japan. Liquid-cooled, 90° V4, four-stroke, evo desmodromic DOHC, four valves per cylinder, Ducati Seamless Transmission (DST_EVO). Intense braking can bring a MotoGP bike from 320 km/h to less than 100 Km/h in about five seconds. (Even considering that the BMW is less powerful than the MotoGP machine). Honda and Ducati understand something we don't. The BMW S1000RR is arguably the fastest accelerating production litre bike to date but how does it stack up against the fastest MotoGP Bike? It would not be possible to put “250 hp plus” down in the first 3 or 4 gears effectively without the electronic wizardry that makes it possible. I had 150 hp worth of angry explosions launching me forward at daft speeds, nothing could wiz past me…nothing! What we have today are 250 hp plus bikes that are surprisingly usable given their massive output, and that’s why we are seeing these insane speeds. The two plotted lines show a very clear victor. If the Desmo’s frontal area and coefficient drag has been calculated correctly, with long enough gearing and an equally long straight, the Desmo could be good for close to 380 km/h. The Power these machines make would almost be totally useless if it were not for their amazing electronic packages that make them controllable. MotoGP 20 is here and it's one of the most challenging racing games on the market. Marc Marquez feels Honda's MotoGP bike is no longer "losing on acceleration" after beating the favoured works Ducati bikes to pole position for Sunday's Austrian Grand Prix. While the BMW S1000RR has its own electronics, such as traction and wheelie control and complimented with slightly different mapping for each gear, its systems, while advanced, are several generations behind, and less effective at. "La RS-GP 2021 m'attend à Jerez et il y a pas mal de mises à jour, donc j'ai hâte de tester la moto. It’s exciting that the bikes we can buy now from the dealership are faster than factory WSBK’s from 20 years ago, and nudging at the straight line performance of the two-stroke Grand Prix machines from the same era. "You cannot calculate everything at home because when you come to a real race track and have some dust on the surface, a specific temperature, a certain type of tyre and so on.". So there is only about 850 metres of useful tarmac, give or take, to go from the last corner (Bucine), where GP bikes apex at 100 km/h, before cracking 350 km/h in well under a kilometre. The new 800 cc variants lost around 20 km/h of top end speed at some of the fastest tracks compared to their 990 cc predecessors. As the speeds increase so does the distance advantage to the Ducati. You get the feeling you could brake better without it, which is not generally true! Single stainless steel rear disc with two-piston calliper. You can feel that is it too restrictive and you would be better without it, if you are an above-average driver. When hooking gears on any modern litre bike, it’s pretty hard to imagine something overtaking you. Even Kawasaki’s ballistic Supercharged H2R is not a match for the Desmosedici GP18. There is even a YouTube video or two showing Dovi Acccelerate from 0 to 300 km/h, and 300-350, and its kindly been timed. Here’s a true story; A few years back while residing in Italy, I was aboard my stock 2002 Yamaha YZF-R1 and was having a spirited play with a local lad on his 2008 Kawasaki ZX-10R. "All the Ducatis are better in acceleration… "When MotoGP moved to the [single ECU] we have some problem. Like F1, MotoGP machinery can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in around 2.6 seconds but it takes the bikes quite a bit longer to reach 300 km/h - …
