It is a self-confident Jorge Lorenzo who arrives this weekend on Catalan lands with the air of “Lorenzoland”. Winner of half of the six Grands Prix contested so far, including two consecutively, he has transformed his hammer into a club and he intends to drive the point home at Montmélo on Sunday.
Furthermore, the statistics are with him. Certainly, he had his victory in Catalonia in 2009 stolen from him by a certain Red, but since then he has beaten the measure. In the last six meetings with Barcelona, he has won four times. And he leaves enthusiastic about an Italian Grand Prix snatched from a stingy Marc Marquez which he is now ten points ahead of in the general classification. This without mentioning the 37 steps ahead of Valentino Rossi given by its engine failure.
« Here we are at my meeting at home” rejoices Por Fuera. “Barcelona is a really special place for me. I love the track, a lot of my fans will be there, I've lived around for a long time and it feels like home ». Then he continues: “ I am still on the clouds of my success at Mugello because this victory had several flavors. This race was important for the championship. We need to score even more points and we will try to show as much potential to fight again for victory ».
