burning sun, sending the track temperature soaring to a peak of 55 degrees
Celsius during the race. It was the joint highest track temperature of the
season, equal with Catalunya in July, and was a severe challenge for
Bridgestone’s tyres. Despite this heat though, even the softer option rear
proved its performance during the race. Dani Pedrosa took his third victory of
the season whilst Ben Spies was second to score his best MotoGP result to date.
Jorge Lorenzo continued his impressive record of finishing on the podium at
every race this season with a fighting ride to third, having slipped to fifth
by the end of the first lap.</description><category>MotoGP:</category><pubDate>Mon, 30 Aug 2010 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Pedrosa shines in scorching Indianapolis</title><link>http://www.bridgestonemotorsport.com/Bridgestone/en-gb/Championships/MotoGP/News/Pedrosa+shines+in+scorching+Indianapolis.htm</link><description>Starting from fifth position, Dani Pedrosa stormed to a decisive

summer break, and was won by championship leader Jorge Lorenzo, from Dani
Pedrosa and Casey Stoner. Conditions throughout the weekend were unpredictable
and Friday and Saturday practice and Sunday’s warm-up were all affected by
rain. This meant reduced dry running time for the teams ahead of what was a dry
race, and the track conditions were also affected by the downpours. The event
was followed by a one-day Official Test on Monday 16 August, during which
Bridgestone continued testing with developmental front slick tyres.</description><category>MotoGP:</category><pubDate>Tue, 17 Aug 2010 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title>Lorenzo takes seventh win of the season in Brno</title><link>http://www.bridgestonemotorsport.com/Bridgestone/en-gb/Championships/MotoGP/News/Lorenzo+takes+seventh+win+of+the+season+in+Brno.htm</link><description>After a damp warm-up session in
