Jorge Lorenzo will embark this weekend on what will be his last part of the season with a Ducati. At the end of the latter, he will indeed join Honda to take up another great challenge: beating Marc Marquez on his land. We know the reasons that pushed Por Fuera to change direction after two years. However, the Mallorcan intends to leave the Reds with his head held high. Which means that we will have to count on him for these last ten races. Starting with that of Brno starting this Sunday!

The adventure therefore ends between Lorenzo and Ducati, but the work continues. For the start of a summer break which began at the end of the German Grand Prix and which will end with the start of the Czech Republic Grand Prix this weekend, the five-time winner reveals his roadmap and his ambition not to play extras: “ in Germany, I was only able to finish sixth after leading the race because I no longer had grip with my rear tire when taking maximum angle in the corners with the bike and accelerating. This is an area we are working on ».

« But if we manage to develop the bike like in Mugello and Barcelona, ​​then I will be there to fight for the podium ". On InSella.it, he even warns: “ I have some ideas in mind for the next Grands Prix. For example, when braking, I'm not yet comfortable enough, I tire my arms a lot. We have made good progress on this subject since Mugello, but we still need to improve it. Likewise, the Ducati is a motorcycle that does not consume much of its front tire. And with my riding style which is different from other Ducati riders, I am one of the few who can take advantage of that ».

He finishes : " the next circuits are very good, both for me and for my bike ". We will therefore have to count on Lorenzo in the coming months.
