Pedrosa：拿杆位的動力化為好成績 Hayden：打破只拿第四的魔咒 http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/272/4293283721motorcyclingmcw6.jpg Pedrosa：老大，我們啥時才能電爆他們？ Hayden：我想，明年吧... Pedrosa takes fight to Sepang. http://www.crash.net/motorsport/motogp/news/156046-0/pedrosa_takes_fight_to_sepang.html Wednesday, 17th October 2007 Nicky Hayden 和 Dani Pedrosa 所屬的 Repsol Honda 感覺，是時候在這周末的 Sepang 站排位賽轉換他們的速度了。 The Repsol Honda team of Nicky Hayden and Dani Pedrosa feel it's time to convert their pace in qualifying into the results they deserve this coming weekend at Sepang. Pedrosa 在上兩場比賽都拿到桿位，但是需要將它們轉化為勝利。 這位 22 歲的西班牙小將在 2003 年的 125 cc Sepang站取得勝利， 2004年的 250 cc 也是。 Pedrosa pulled off pole position at the last two races but needs to translate them into wins. The 22-year-old Spaniard has winning form at Sepang having taken victory in the 125cc race in 2003 and the 250cc race in 2004. 去年 MotoGP 在這受傷的 Pedrosa 製造他的初登場特別表現，開賽 後領先，而痛苦的第三完賽。 這位兩次 250cc 世界冠軍忍受在星期五的膝傷練習，並且不知是否 能參賽，直到星期日燈滅起跑前才確定。 一個完全狀態良好的 Pedrosa 應該是這周末一個真正的威脅。 Making his debut in MotoGP last year an injured Pedrosa produced an extraordinary performance by taking the lead from the start and finishing in a pain-defying third. The two-time 250cc World Champion sustained a knee injury in Friday practice and was doubtful for the race right until the lights went out on Sunday. A fully fit Pedrosa should be a real threat this weekend. ”這感覺真的好像，要花一段時間才會得到一個好結果，因為我們在 一些比賽都缺乏臨門一腳，" Pedrosa 說， " 今年天氣已經影響了許多比賽，而且它在上一站澳洲也扮演一部份 角色，表示我們沒有多餘的時間做乾地練習。 在馬來西亞，天氣時常也是一個因素，它常在排位賽的午後下大雨， 去年我們看著排位賽取消。” “It really feels like it's time to get a good result because we've been knocking on the door for a few races now,” said Pedrosa, “The weather has affected many races this year and it also played a part at the last one in Phillip Island because the rain meant we didn't have much dry practice time ahead of the race. In Malaysia weather is often a factor too – it can rain very hard in the afternoon as we saw last year when qualifying was cancelled.” 雖然排位賽取消，但沒有阻止 Pedrosa 的比賽好表現， " 去年在這的比賽，我跑的相當好，尤其在練習裡摔車後，及不確定 我能不能比賽。 今年我希望一切平順，而我們能完成好的設定，及正確的輪胎選擇， 這樣我們才能戰鬥到最後一圈。 這是我們的目標。 Sepang 的挑戰是，對於騎乘和輪胎耐熱相當要求。 我真的盼望在這裡得到一個很棒的結果。 " Although qualifying was cancelled it didn't stop Pedrosa doing well in the race, “Last year's race here went quite well for me, especially after crashing in practice and not being sure that I would even be able to race. For this year I hope things go more smoothly and we can arrive at a good set-up and tyre selection so that we can be competitive right to the final lap. This is our target for the weekend. The Sepang track is quite demanding to ride and the high temperatures add to the challenge. I'm really looking forward to getting a strong result here.” http://pix.crash.net/motorsport/view/389485.jpg 不要再把香蕉皮放進我的車裡了，不要逼我變成超級賽亞人！ Hayden 帶著未完賽的心情來到 Sepang ，並且期待命運的改變。 26 歲的肯塔基小子，他在這裡有個始終如一的紀錄，四次造訪雪邦 都以第四名完賽。 星期日 Hayden 將會以站上頒獎台而感到滿意。 Hayden comes to Sepang with unfinished business and is hoping for a change of fortune. The 26-year-old American has an immensely consistent record at the Malaysian Grand Prixhaving finished the race in fourth place on his four previous visits to Sepang. Hayden will be satisfied with nothing less than a podium finish on Sunday. " 上星期澳洲站的結果，肯定是個大傷害， " Hayden 談到他的引擎爆缸， ”但至少，我當時正為領先地位戰鬥，當我掉出第12位之後，沒有比這更 令人受傷的。這是令人失望的，但是我只能去克服它。” “Last week's result at Phillip Island definitely stung,” said Hayden of his engine failure, “But at least I was fighting for the lead when I went out rather than 12th place – that would have hurt even more. It's disappointing but I've just got to get over it.” Hayden 也談到到新的表面， ”在今年我們曾去過的那些重鋪表面的賽道，我們不是跑得很好，不然 就是很糟，所以我們希望這一次能想出好方法。我們真的需要一個好結果， 今年賽季已經耗完了。 只剩下二次機會，所以這週末我們將豁出去了。” Hayden commented on the resurfacing saying, “At the other tracks we've been to that have been repaved for this year we've either gone really well or really badly so let's hope this one works out for us. We really need a good result and time is running out this season. There's only two more chances so we'll go all out this weekend.” --
