Jorge Lorenzo would like this return to Europe of MotoGP to mean the end of its black bread ration at Honda. Last year, Jerez was the first sign of a turnaround in his situation at Ducati. Por Fuera would therefore like history to repeat itself in this Spanish Grand Prix which will take place on a resurfaced bitumen offering, a priori, the grip which allows him to express the subtleties of his driving...
The Spanish Grand Prix marks not only the start of the European tour of the Motorcycle World Championship, but the 300th edition of MotoGP born in 2002. Since then, there have been 142 victories for Honda, and Jorge Lorenzo would see himself being able to seek the 143rd success at home. Which would help to forget Austin's dark day and the rest of the days since he was at Honda which have not been all rosy.
« I have been focusing on this race since the start of the season » the five-time winner bluntly admits. “ After just a few kilometers of testing we knew the first Grand Prix would be difficult » he admitted. However, few people expected him to be 17th in the rankings. The European prelude should mark a turning point.
« Jerez is one of my favorite tracks. The track surface generally has a lot of grip, which suits my riding style very well, unlike a few other tracks we have visited. I am sure we can get a good result with the Repsol Honda team after learning a lot in the first races ", said Lorenzo. It will be recalled that he has already celebrated eight podiums and three victories in MotoGP at Jerez.
