Description

The natural excitement of the 2001 500cc MotorGP World Championship featured 4 Yamaha teams entering an overall total of 8 devices. The Yamaha YZR 500 '01 had undergone numerous modifications from the previous 12 months. These alterations had been designed to enhance rider feel, self-confidence, and rideability, and enabled crisper throttle response in sluggish corners, which encouraged the rider to accelerate much harder and earlier, among the YZR500's stronger faculties. The biggest change on appearance for the 2001 model ended up being this new carbon-fiber bodywork, which is designed to offer more stability at greater rates. The cyclists the two bikes entered by the Factory Yamaha group had been Massimiliano "Max" Biaggi, nicknamed "The Roman Emperor," and teammate Carlos Checa "El Toro." M. Biaggi secured their very first success on French Grand Prix with C. Checa arriving second. Biaggi later proceeded to just take Round 7, the Dutch TT and Round 9, the German Grand Prix.
