These are reunions that recall the beginnings and childhood of a Jorge Lorenzo which has since grown a lot. A big challenge awaits him at Honda, the third manufacturer in the Mallorcan's career who hopes to continue to reach the podiums. If he succeeds, he will laugh with a lollipop. An image that characterized him during his rise to 125 and 250.

Jorge Lorenzo thus finds on his helmet the logo of the firm specializing in sweets. A drawing, by the way, that we owe squarely to the late artist Salvador Dali. But beyond the renewed historic partnership, there is also a philosophy… “ I couldn't resist the temptation to show off my new Shark helmet marked with the legendary Chupa Chups daisy during pre-season testing ", commented Jorge Lorenzo in remarks relayed by Tutomotoriweb. " For me, motorcycling is not only a sacrifice, a passion and a commitment, but it has always been fun above all. My passion for motorcycles dates back to childhood and Chupa Chups is for me the pure pleasure of those years, which then accompanied me in many adventures and many successes ».

The affection for the iconic lollipop has lasted for twenty years. Since 1999, his helmet was "signed" Chupa Chups, who then accompanied him in the 125 and 250 categories, when he won the championship in 2006 and 2007, until 2008, the year he participated in his first championship MotoGP.

Jorge will wear a helmet emblazoned with the Chupa Chups logo not only this season but also next. We hope that, during this period, his adventure at Honda will not go to waste. First event, the Qatar Grand Prix on March 10.

Chupa Chups will be with Jorge Lorenzo every time he gets on the podium. A way to celebrate victories in a pleasant and irreverent way, showing many fans his passion for entertainment, of which Chupa Chups has always been a true ambassador.
