British Grand Prix, Silverstone, MotoGP: Lorenzo claims to be competitive with the Ducati on all circuits, but is he competitive in all weather?

It is with full confidence and with a determination for good times that Jorge Lorenzo approaches this twelfth round of the MotoGP season which will take place on the side of Silverstone. A route that he has dominated three times in his career. He is therefore not on enemy territory, and even less so this year since he found the instructions for the Ducati at Mugello. Sure, but what about his known aversion to rain?

A question worth asking in a country where downpours are no exception. Still, Por Fuera is coming off a victory in Austria and good tests at Misano, a dynamic that leaves no room for doubt: “ the third Grand Prix of the month comes just after my success in Austria, which was undoubtedly my most competitive race of the season » rejoices the Majorcan.

« We continued to progress and we are working really well. We can now be competitive on all circuits. Silverstone is a track that I like and where I have good memories. But there is always an unknown when it comes to the weather. This will be an important element and I would definitely prefer a dry track. In any case, racing in England is always a pleasure because it is a country with a great tradition in motor sports and populated by many fans. ».

Por Fuera's goal will be to secure a fourth victory with the Ducati this year, which would allow him to get closer to the runner-up position in Marquez in the championship… firstly! His concern is that his teammate Dovizioso equipped with the same bike and winner last year has the same ambition as him…
