Chicho Lorenzo, father of five-time world champion Jorge, doesn't often mince his words. The youth development specialist often gives his opinion on the world championship through analyses. And of course, there was something to say following the 2025 British Grand Prix, who saw Pecco Bagnaia crash, Quartararo almost triumphs, and Marc Marquez saves the day. Here's what he thought of this incredible weekend.
The Spaniard first looked at the case of Pecco Bagnaia, in total disarray at Silverstone. « Things certainly got complicated for him, but that's where you see the real champions.It is the bike on which he has won the last two of the three world championships and which currently occupies first place in the general classification. Pecco's biggest problem is his attitude, he is defeated » could we read on Motosan.

He could not miss the domination of the two Marquez brothers at the start of the season, including Alex, who was very surprising given his performances in previous seasons. "Alex Márquez is having such an impressive season, with a consistency he has never known. When his brother doesn't win, he wins, which shows that he is still in contention for the championship.If his brother has a few blank results, he will be first again, which was already the case after Austin and Jerez. I think he also did a very good job, especially in preseason. Alex is benefiting a lot from Marc's experience. » he added.
Pedro Acosta is currently at the center of rumors, much like his compatriot Jorge Martin. Strangely, he doesn't seem to really impress Chicho Lorenzo. « Pedro still has to convince me he's a star. Sometimes you find yourself in easy categories: when he arrived in Moto3 and won the first year, the category was probably not at its best. Then he arrived in Moto2, and it was more difficult for him, it took him two years to win. He came to MotoGP with the wrong bike; although, that's a bit false, because Maverick Vinales is doing well. He doesn't really convince me as a crack. He's a very good driver, but he's not exceptional either. » he concluded.
