Yamaha reveals extent of 800cc MotoGP progress

Yamaha's annual MotoGP technical presentation, at Valencia on Friday evening, was especially significant since 2011 is the final year of the 800cc formula.

Yamaha revealed that during the five-years of 800cc racing, the M1's engine power has increased by 16%, torque by 12% and top speed (at Qatar) by 20km/h.

This is despite the introduction of engine change limits, which resulted in engine durability increasing from 600km in 2007 to 2400km for the 2010/11 seasons.

Yamaha stated that the increased durability has cut development costs by a quarter.

Fuel consumption has also been improved by 8% relative to the start of the 800cc era.

Among the conclusions at the end of the technical presentation were that:

"The lap time of the 800cc has finally reached the 990cc bike because of:
* An increase in engine power year by year.
* Progress of the engine control system.
* Tyre development.

"The regulations governing engine limitations has had a great effect in reducing development cost. This has allowed the provision of bikes to the satellite [Tech 3] team at reasonable cost."

Yamaha won three of the five 800cc world championships - two with Valentino Rossi and one with Jorge Lorenzo - and has claimed 39 victories in 88 races.

MotoGP will change to 1000cc engines, with new bore/stroke limits, for 2012.

Ten Kate to tune Gresini MotoGP engine?

Gresini Racing's CRT MotoGP bike could be powered by a Ten Kate-tuned Honda engine.

Gresini has already confirmed that it will run a CBR1000RR-powered FTR chassis for Michele Pirro under the new CRT MotoGP regulations, alongside a Honda RC213V for Alvaro Bautista.

But while FTR will be looking after the chassis development, Gresini needs a technical partner to supply, tune and maintain the engine.

Although Gresini has long links with Honda, direct manufacturer support is frowned upon for CRT, ruling out a HRC engine supply.

However an excellent alternative looks to have been found with Racesport.nl reporting that a contract has been signed for Ten Kate Racing Products to supply the engine and electronics for the Gresini CRT project.

Ten Kate has long been Honda's leading team in the World Superbike Championship, taking the CBR1000RR to title glory with James Toseland in 2007. Ten Kate's Castrol Honda rider Jonathan Rea took two WSBK race wins this year, despite injury.

At present, Gresini is the only confirmed CRT entry to use a Honda engine.

Prior to Moto2, Gresini rider Pirro won a race for Ten Kate in the World Supersport Championship.
