It’s a Andrea Dovizioso a little disillusioned who confided in the media Tutomotoriweb. Sixth at the end of the first day in Austin, he spoke about this 2017 MotoGP season which he is beginning to describe as another lost opportunity for Ducati. And for Lorenzo.

It was a speech with a disillusioned tone that Dovi gave to his compatriots on the web: “ in MotoGP you have to have a perfectly ready bike otherwise you can't play at the front. The level is very high. You cannot be in contention for the title. I think our motorcycle has advantages and disadvantages. I think what we have is not enough. We are close and not so far, but that's not enough ».

Suffice to say that with such an approach, we can fear a 2017 campaign less glorious than that of 2016. Made up of two victories and with a GP16 equipped with wings that have since been removed. A thorn in the side of Gigi Dall'Igna who must rack their brains to change things: “ there will be developments this year,” assures DesmoDovi. “But what they will be, I don’t know. The most important thing is to progress ».

A complicated situation that the mere arrival of Jorge Lorenzo did not simplify. Expected as added value, the Majorcan fell into line: “ he didn't expect that, to find negative points. And here's the result ". It must also be said that the speech given to him revolved around the promise of a Desmosedici as docile as a Japanese woman. However, she remained as temperamental as her elders.
