After four races out of the nineteen on the program for this MotoGP season, there is a solid lesson that we can already take away: given the level currently reached by the field, we need to think twice before deciding to change manufacturer. Wanting to enhance one's record with another coat of arms means risking no longer embellishing it for a certain time. Jorge Lorenzo at Honda relives the same scene as with Ducati after Yamaha and Andrea Iannone set off on a fairly long introductory journey with the Aprilia. It is the same for Johann zarco with KTM…
Situations that attracted the attention of Max Biaggi. The Roman, now victorious as team boss in Moto3, talks about his friend Jorge Lorenzo and Iannone who officiates for Aprilia, a brand for which the Corsaire is an ambassador. He therefore speaks for this duo, but his approach applies to the third man on the RC16…
On his social network, Max Biaggi explain : " whatever the friendship that binds me to Jorge Lorenzo, it is unthinkable to doubt a champion who has won so much, with so much authority and who above all had the courage to leave the Yamaha, when it was the motorcycle fell. Jorge has ridden three different motorcycles over the past four years. These motorcycles are more than different, driven by a totally unique philosophy, in the chassis, the engine and the electronic components ».
« It's not easy at all, and I'm sure you need time. Jorge works hard so that the sensations necessary to achieve maximum performance are revealed. During Monday's testing in Jerez, he completed almost 100 laps! Honda and Jorge both want to achieve the same goal. They will succeed ».
So much for the Mallorcan. What about compatriot Joe the Maniac? “ At Aprilia, I know Andrea very well. It's a talent I have confidence in. Like Jorge, he changed bikes three times and he had three teams in 4 years! Once again the three machines are very different. Duplicating all the alchemy built in so many moments is not simple at all. It’s not easy from a human point of view, nor is it easy from a technical point of view.”
“Aprilia is a great company that has returned to MotoGP under the umbrella of the Piaggio group for a very short time. The ability of Europe's most successful racing department cannot be doubted and I can vouch for it on their behalf. Once again, it takes time to adapt the package to Andrea, time to evolve the RS GP.
“There are all the conditions to do well. Andrea spares no effort and I'm really sorry for the injury he suffered on Saturday! I am sure he will be able to prove his worth by climbing the rankings and reaching his and Aprilia's positions. ».
He finishes : " In today's MotoGP, nothing can be left to chance and everything must be done very quickly. However, at this speed you sometimes can't give time to time. However, let the pilots have time to express themselves. They will find their way... And then the pleasure of success will be increased tenfold. Come on Jorge, and forza Andrea ».
