We are learning things during this confinement. With a ladle, Livio Suppo, Racing Consultant gave us the secrets of the stormy finale of the 2015 season, swore to us that we should have had a Stoner–Marc Márquez duo at Honda before the latter's injury, we also know from Elias that Valentino Rossi has a stubborn grudge. And now Aleix Espargaró tells us that at the end of the 2014 season, he should have replaced Andrea Dovizioso at Ducati…
Aleix Espargaró is a thirty-year-old who we almost lost at the end of the 2019 season. A disappointing campaign which wore him out and devitalized him… “ I had a pretty bad experience, this year was so disappointing. I wasn't having any fun on the bike. Ok, it's a job like any other, but when on top of that you risk your life, falling and the results don't come... Then there is the fact of being far from your family. At the end of November, I had reached a stage where I almost no longer wanted to get back on the track. I discussed it at length with my partner Laura, to see the different options available to me and I told myself that this year would be like a test. I will see if things would change or not, as they promised me, because in Jerez, the bike was identical to that of 2019 even though everyone had the news! »
A confidence made on motogp.com, but fortunately there was the enlightenment of the news RS GP : " at Sepang, I almost had tears in my eyes during the first laps », He says. " We were incredibly competitive! » Certainly, but he should never have known this Aprilia because he should never have gone through Suzuki… Aleix Espargaró goes back in time to surprise us like this: “ I had a somewhat unstructured sporting career. As soon as I arrived in MotoGP, I had to immediately show that I wanted it and I had finished sixth in the Championship with the Open bike, when Suzuki recruited me in 2015. But three weeks earlier, at the Sachsenring, I shook hands with Gigi Dall'Igna... Everything was almost done, but in the end, Andrea Dovizioso decided to stay » he reveals.
A career definitely has nothing to do with it... We will remember thatAleix Espargaró was known at the Borgo Panigale factory for having ridden the Ducati Pramac in 2009 for four Grands Prix and in 2010 for a full season. He apparently left some good memories!
