The brand new Honda driver spoke during an interview with Red Bull about his coming year and the luck he has every day since realizing his dream of racing in the World Cup.
Since the announcement of his signing with Honda, all eyes have been on Jorge Lorenzo, and even more so at the start of the year since his contract with Ducati has ended and he is now a full-fledged HRC rider.
He also gave his very first interview in the colors of HRC in which he confided his first feelings and his expectations. Red Bull also interviewed the Mallorcan to find out more, and one of the questions he was asked was: “What will be successful for you in 2019?” » In a very calm manner, he responded: “My life is generally a success. I am a lucky person, a lucky boy who can do what he loves and have, so far, a successful career with many victories and titles. It's much more than I dreamed of when I was little. As I always said after my first MotoGP world title, everything that came after that was just a bonus, like a gift. »
A champion nevertheless remains a champion and Lorenzo did not sign with Honda to make up the numbers. He is aware that his first year will certainly not be easy, but he does not admit defeat: “Obviously, I will try to achieve the maximum and the maximum is to win. However, it will be very complicated and, at the moment, I am not the favorite for the title this year. But everything is possible in MotoGP. »
