Jorge Lorenzo was in Misano for the last Grand Prix which took place there last weekend. He attended Fabio Quartararo's coronation and was one of the actors who congratulated him in front of the cameras. It must be said that the last winner on a Yamaha was him, in 2015, and he opportunely recalled it. The Mallorcan, who was also a rider of a Ducati factory that was defeated that same Sunday, declared that he is and will forever remain a Yamaha rider. His last team, however, was Honda, about which he had a word…
A necessary comment given the result of the race which sealed a double Repsol Honda, the first since 2017 in MotoGP. A return to the foreground which also identifies a Pol Espargaro who managed the kind of performance that ever Jorge Lorenzo could only approach the time when he was the teammate of Marc Marquez. Por Fuera obviously noticed this and analyzed this difference which does not entirely work to his advantage: “ Pol deserves a lot of credit because he didn't throw in the towel. He kept pushing, trying things, with many falls, and he kept trying and it came out. I'm very happy for him, because he deserved it », began the Majorcan on AS.
Jorge Lorenzo can't believe the courage of Marc Marquez
He added on the subject: “ in his favor is the fact that he was not injured despite so many falls. Injuries interrupted my progress with the Honda. I have had many injuries to my collarbone, but that of my spine was different. He had no injuries despite so many falls and his insistence paid off ».
The five-time title winner ends on Marc Marquez, whose third success in his year of return should be marked with a milestone: “ I am also very happy because Marc greatly surprises me by continue to risk so much with the arm he has, without being afraid. This is what surprises me the most about him and what makes him unique.. There's no one like him ". And now, he has an additional source of motivation with this target now clearly identified: the new World Champion Fabio Quartararo.
