On this February 16, there is no doubt that Luca marini is located in Tavullia and probably even on a ranch where the VR46 sign proudly sits.

Before this party with his eldest, he spoke about what awaits him in 2019 in Moto2. With, in particular, this pressure of having to succeed his class friends Morbidelli and bagnaia...

Luca marini is ready to experience one hell of a season. After the successes achieved by Morbidely et bagnaia, he will have to start looking for a title in Moto2 in order to allow the academy Red to make the pass of three. And the Doctor's brother seems to be coming of age to meet this challenge. Let's not forget that he is a Grand Prix winner since the meeting in Malaysia, which also won bagnaia.

As reported by “Sky Sports" Luca marini responded to those who already rank him among the favorites for the title: “the favorites, I will define them after a few races. New Moto3 riders have arrived. Binder, Marquez and Baldassarri were there before me. I think that today, in this sport, pure talent is no longer enough. It's not enough to be fast on the bike, as I have already proven. Valentino taught me this and shows it to me every day, he who is the best rider in the history of motorcycling. You need the right bike and the right team and you have to work well ".

The SKY VR46 Racing driver added: “II think Bulega is a very fast driver, it's better for him to be fast next to me. It will be helpful to lend a helping hand to come together when it is needed. Help from Nicolò? I hope, because it will mean that I will fight for the title. I will work hard to achieve good results ".

Luca marini concluded : "my brother is an important part of my life. For me it is an example, not only from a sporting point of view. I'm sure he will be waiting for me in MotoGP, it's everyone's dream, but also my dream. For me it's the strongest ever and I think I can run for years to come".
