Winter is the perfect time to listen to elders giving their expertise by the fire. Wise men with questions as deep as their juniors when asked to predict what the 2020 season will be like. Take the case of Loris Reggiani. Vice-world champion in both 125 and 250, the man who had the heyday of Aprilia from 1980 to 1995 gives his feelings on what awaits us. He thinks a lot about the Yamaha case, takes a look at Álex Márquez and doesn't forget Dovizioso, a native like him of the Forli area...

When uncertainty reigns, all opinions are worth taking... The media InSella contacted the former Grand Prix driver Loris Reggiani on what awaits us for 2020.

On the other hand, the same reggiani has not the slightest doubt about the case Alex Marquez : " I don't expect much from Álex Márquez, it's clear that he doesn't have the talent of his brother. In my opinion, Marc could be distracted by starting to help him, but he is such a war machine that he will lose at most 5%. »
