Joan Mir answered her fans' questions during a video interview conducted by Estrella Galicia 0,0 which you can find just below the translation.


If you could, who would you choose as your teammate?
I would say Rins. He's a very fast guy, with whom I have a good relationship. I hope this continues in the future.

Do you have a ritual before hitting the track?
I always ride on the left side of the bike, never on the right. Otherwise, on race days I wear red underwear (laughs) and socks with an American flag which have always brought me luck.

What part of the GP do you prefer?
When I finish the race, after a good result. I really have the feeling of work accomplished and it's super pleasant.

What would you like your fans to call you?
I've already thought about it but I don't know. Probably something to do with my nickname. We'll have to think about it.

If you could start all over again, would you choose the world of motorcycling again?
It’s an environment that has brought me a lot. To be honest, if I was the Joan of six or seven years old again, I'd try to be a pilot again, too.

Is people’s support important to you?
I think that's the most important thing, because if we ran alone, without anyone, it wouldn't make sense. When you also see how happy it makes people to see us win, it's really great.

What do you think about when you are fighting for the podium?
I always tell myself “come on, you can do it!” » (laughs) but otherwise I don't think there's anything else that comes to mind apart from what is related to piloting.

What's your favorite song ?
“Forever young” by Alphaville, and when I win I like to listen to “We are the champions.” »
