Andrea Dovizioso Although he is enjoying the winter break, he nevertheless remains connected to a MotoGP that never stops. At most he sleeps! In 2019, he will be the figurehead of the Ducati troops. An undisputed leader with protected status. In front of him, he will notably have a Honda armada with a pair of drivers collecting no less than twelve titles between them. But there will be loopholes to exploit...
First, DesmoDovi should have a formidable GP19. It's the least to face Marc Marquez. But the latter could be weakened. And not just by the arrival of a Lorenzo who has already shown a certain velocity during the first tests of the offseason…
On this analysis, the double world vice-champion elaborates on Tutomototoriweb: “ Jorge's surgery should not affect his preparation. For Marquez, on the other hand, it is different. He likes to train by riding motocross. And he won't be able to do it. His preparation will therefore obviously be disrupted ».
On this, he evokes the new couple reunited under the awning of the HRC: “ Lorenzo and Marquez will work separately. There will be friction. However, I'm not worried about whether or not Lorenzo can bring Ducati information to Honda, as they are two different bikes. The same thing happened when he moved from Yamaha to Ducati. Jorge if he is strong, will be an additional problem. For his part, Marquez has always shown that he does not suffer from pressure. So I can't say if I'm going to encourage Lorenzo or not ».
