The Ducati clan is particularly happy with their success. Possessing a five-time World Champion from competition is no small thing, even if, for that, we had to give ourselves the means. But Jorge Lorenzo is an investment. So much so that the other drivers in the Borgo Panigale family also expect a lot.
This is the World Champion effect. When Valentino Rossi arrived in his time among reds which were not as lively as today, we remember that he was expected as the messiah, able to tame and give the way for a Desmosedici orphan of Casey Stoner. Today, things are better, but the aura remains.
Pilot Avintia Blusens on the handlebars of a GP14.2 which has still not said its last word, far from it, Loris Baz smiles when the prospect of seeing Por Fuera on a Ducati is presented to him: » This is big news, and firstly because we will have the three best drivers in three different teams. I'm sure Jorge can win entry races with the Ducati. And he will fight for the title right away. We can already see what the bike can do with the two Andreas on the handlebars”.
On MotoGP.com, he continues: “ I don't think he'll have any big problems adapting. It will of course be necessary to rework certain things in the electronics so that the bike fits more with its style. But Ducati will do what it takes. Jorge will be very fast “ . Furthermore, the Mallorcan will find a Gigi Dall'Igna that he rubbed shoulders with during his two consecutive 250cc crowns with Aprilia. It was in 2006 and 2007.
