When Giacomo Agostini spoke about the importance of the mind in the performance of a Grand Prix rider, he cited as a concrete example an unrecognizable Jorge Lorenzo on the Honda and the Ducati. A final period cited which made the Majorcan see red whose feelings about his time on the Desmosedici are radically different. He therefore responded strongly to his elder. Now, it's his father Chicho who clarifies things. In favor of the son.
Giacomo Agostini probably didn’t think he was thinking wrong when he declared: “ for me, Lorenzo is a bit of a risk. This is the second time that he has failed to obtain results, neither at Ducati nor at Honda. Motorcycles are motorcycles, but a skilled rider goes fast ". Por Fuera’s response was quick and scathing: “ But do I owe this man money or something? I failed at Ducati… look how good it is. How easy it is to talk when you haven't been on a motorcycle for 50 years. »
Jorge's father, boy lorenzo, joined the debate by confiding on DAZN: “ leaving Yamaha was a courageous decision, he won again with the Ducati and it was at an impressive level. The level he had was that of playing the championship with Márquez », declared Chicho who has great esteem for the last mentioned: “ it would be great to see what he does to get the results with his riding style. Márquez has his own school, what he does, we haven't seen in any other driver. »

« In this respect it is unique. It would be interesting to study this management. To beat him, you have to be very consistent but also capable of winning races, pushing him to make mistakes but you can only do that if the bike and the team are up to it. Who could be your heir? Short term, I do not see anyone if there are no surprises. »
What if this surprise was the return of the prodigal son? Chicho is not hot… “ I think it's within the possibilities. If the favorable circumstances are aligned and you can experience the races with more positive aspects than negative, there is a possibility. But I hope not because the parents are suffering a lot. But I think he's already done everything and was very successful, he only had the Honda thorn »
After announcing his retirement in Valencia last November, Jorge Lorenzo signed a test rider contract with Yamaha, with the possibility of making wild cards. He was once considered for a starting position at Petronas Yamaha alongside Red with a view to 2021, a rumor that fizzled out.
