Cal Crutchlow comes to the rescue of Marco Bezzecchi on his idea that a driver entering a new category in Grand Prix should have two years to prove himself. A season to learn and another to assert oneself, which is still not much to ask, but we saw that with the case of Remy Gardner at KTM, and although the latter was crowned with a title of Moto2 World Champion, it was already too much. A waste that the Yamaha test rider also points out in disciplines where budding Champions are shorn prematurely because they are asked to push too quickly...
A subject which makes the English all the more aware as they do not see a national succession on the horizon. However, the structure is there and he indeed identifies it as follows: “If you look at the British Talent Cup you can see they are doing a good job there. There are a lot of talented drivers there, I love some of them. The drivers are there, they are fast and they have everything they need to succeed ».
Cal Crutchlow: “ if everything doesn't go well right away, they are immediately left behind«
Yes, but… " The problem is getting them to the world championship. When children reach a certain age, it is too late. When the drivers arrive at the Grand Prix, they should have two years to reveal themselves. Currently, if everything doesn't go well right away, they are immediately left behind ". A delay of two seasons already mentioned by Marco Bezzecchi.
And the result is this: “ we have already had some top riders in the championship, but no one has been leading in MotoGP in recent years. It's a shame, because given the history of British motorsport, we deserve more success. But many had no chance ". Then he ends on motorcyclespsorts : " everyone should have the chance to try ».
