“It's been two fantastic seasons with these guys, but now Suzuki has decided to completely change its plan. So it's time to move on to a new project where people really believe in me! I will continue to work hard, as I have in the 11 years since I was in the world championship! “
This little dig marked with disappointment towards Suzuki is the message broadcast by Aleix Espargaro on social networks following theofficial announcement of his replacement by Alex Rins in 2017.
In fact, since Suzuki made Andrea Iannone official without first talking to the Granollers rider, he understood that he was no longer part of the Hamamatsu firm's future plans and did not hide his resentment. and his feeling of injustice.
Despite his 5th places in Austin and Jerez, and his 6th place in France, today's conclusion is therefore not a surprise for the man who is currently in 7th place in the championship and who could end up at Aprilia l 'next year.
