An event has already occurred on the route of Misano who has not yet had to honor the slightest lap of a motorcycle for a San Marino Grand Prix scheduled for this weekend as the thirteenth round of the calendar. In MotoGP, there is always something happening, including during the press conference.
This will be one of the pictures of this season, and it shows a new episode of the stormy relationship between Marc Marquez et Valentino Rossi. Sepang 2015 and Argentina 2018 will have shown the duo dueling on the track. This time, it was in a room in front of journalists that the two men convinced themselves that they were not a couple.
An incident which visibly moved Jorge Lorenzo who commented: “ both made a mistake. First Valentino who, by not taking the outstretched hand, had a boyish attitude. He also didn't take the opportunity to tell fans not to whistle at a rival on the podium. And Marc, then, because it affects him a lot and he will have to forget what Rossi did ».
We will recall that Jorge Lorenzo will be the teammate of Marc Marquez at Honda in 2019 and 2020.
