En Aragon, the dress rehearsal for the 2019 season took place at Honda which saw a controversy arise between its two future strong men, Marc Marquez and Jorge Lorenzo. The latter accused the first of his misfortune symbolized by a fall at the first turn from the start. He wants an apology or there will be war. The accused's first reaction who then won the race does not seem to be convinced of his desire to make amends... Here is the first concrete case to be managed by Alberto Puig, formerly the HRC team manager.
The Spaniard will have two great MotoGP figures in his team next year, which is exciting from a sporting point of view, but particularly sensitive from a political point of view. And that promises because the same Puig also has a strong character. As an appetizer, here is what he said about this clash between his future star duo…
On the martial declarations of Por Fuera with regard to Marc Marquez, he comments on Tutomotoriweb : " his comments? I don't think anything of it. And honestly I don't care. The only thing that matters to me is that Jorge is injured. Everyone knows that the first corner of Aragon is a funnel. If you get a little off the line, which can happen, because everyone is coming at the same time, you can lose grip. Otherwise, I don't care, except that Jorge was injured. I would ignore the subject. I can't say anything else, but I'm sorry he was injured, and not because he will race with Honda next year. I have the same feeling about all drivers who get injured ».
With that, he swears he saw nothing of the incident. The mood is set…
