Even in the hypothesis of the coalition between Marc Marquez and Jorge Lorenzo during the last race of the season in Valencia in 2015, Valentino Rossi has always had different assessments of the two Spanish drivers, judging the Mallorcan is more honest than his compatriot Catalan.

At the end of last season, still in Valencia, a first rapprochement took place between the two Yamaha pilots, and, in January, Lorenzo had made a sort ofpraise of number 46 at Stampa.

This rapprochement seems to be confirmed, a bit like Prost-Senna, and the one who joined the Ducati team recently told Motorsport.es his respect and admiration for his former teammate.

Jorge Lorenzo :  » Valentino does not have it easy because there is not one of his age who continues to race in MotoGP. The second oldest is 32 and he's 38. When you get to that age, each year that goes by is felt more than the last, and that's something he recognized.

We'll see how many 38-year-old drivers manage to go as fast as he does. It's anything but easy, and even less so when you consider that on the other side of the box came someone like Maverick, who is very explosive and very strong. “ 

Is it worth saying that we prefer these kinds of sentences to those that have been uttered in the past?
