Dovizioso can end the year peacefully and look forward to the future with peace of mind. The magic of a victory acquired in Malaysia and which finally brought him to light among the reds. A Ducati factory which, since then, has continued to put him in the spotlight and shower him with praise. The idea of an existence during these next seasons in the shadow of Lorenzo has even been ruled out in high places.
Dovizioso as a water carrier, this is a prospect that has faded away at Ducati thanks to a victory in the rain. Since then, Dovi has been drinking whey while doubts about Por Fuera's adaptation to his new bike multiply.
Questions shared Dovizioso. And for good reason. He also moved from the Yamaha to the Desmosedici: “ it won't be easy. Jorge spent many years with the Yamaha without ever riding anything else in MotoGP. For this reason, this change could be quite hard for him ».
He remembers his experience: “ it was very complicated for me because at the time I arrived, we were more limited in our development possibilities. But I had known Honda and Yamaha before and it was very useful to me ».
We will recall that at the moment when Dovizioso arrived at Ducati, the factory was in the same boat as its competitors Honda and Yamaha. This changed when Gigi Dall'Igna arrived but which no longer applies today.
To top it all off, we will recall that the Lorenzo on the Desmosedici will be reduced to a minimum, Yamaha not having authorized him to do the tests at the end of the year, the two days following the Valencia Grand Prix aside.
