MotoGP start grid
The Doctore getting ready for the race. Changing conditiones. Starting out as a wet race from heavy rain during the 250 race, and that was a crazy race with the battle for the top 3 positiones. Lorenzo crashed in the warm up and had to change his bike and clean the equipment last minute before the start.
At motoGP with Dainese
At Mugello close to Florence for the motoGP. Happy to see my picture on the Dainese wall of fame. Dainese pilots Rossi and Lorenzo are first and second so far this season. And with Lorenzo taking pole today after a close battle with Stoner and Rossi it looks good for tomorrow. Norwegian Sturla Fagerhaug winning the race in Red Bull rookies cup today after a very impressiv performance. Only mistake made is the italians raising the flag of Iceland at the pricegiving... Haha.
At Atomic headquarters in Altenmarkt
Atomic is my most importante partner. Without fast skies and great service and ski techs you have no chance to win. Its important that the cooperation with the ski companie is close and both parts work to develope the material. Today we had meetings about ski construction and where we wanna go for next year, talked about plans for the summer training and also had a meeting regarding the financial situation that is very though for the whole ski industri. We have some challenges on all parts that we will make the best out of. We were the most winning brand/team last winter, and plan to keep it that way. Aksel
Downtown Innsbruck beach bar
blue sky and 30 degrees. Beachbars are great, even in the middle of the city. Something about being barefoot in the sand that feels like vacation. Aksel
At the start grid
ready for race. The start is done. The two brawn gp cars took the start and they look very comfortable.
