Pol Espargaró is like all of his MotoGP colleagues: he is waiting for the confinement imposed by a coronavirus which has put the world under his thumb to be lifted, to go back to his KTM and MotoGP. Unfortunately, given the evolution of this pandemic, it is not yet soon... Although he lives holed up in his apartments, he is not cut off from the world. So he speaks and after opening up on the Jorge Lorenzo case, whose announcement of his retirement he doubts was sincere, he offers himself an outing on Gigi Dall'Igna which deserves attention…
Pol Espargaro Like everyone else, he undergoes his confinement with a certain fatalism while not hiding his concern about this Coronavirus which does not go into detail: “ I'm a little scared » he admits bluntly. “ Here in Andorra the situation is completely under control, but in Spain at first it didn't seem so bad. People underestimated the problem and were unprepared, even when we saw the news from Italy we thought these lockdown measures were overdone. When the virus broke out in Spain, no one was prepared. »
An analysis that fits well with a reality for which we do not yet see the outcome, and not only in MotoGP. Still, there will be an after and this is an opportunity to think about what it could be. Pol Espargaro has his idea on the matter and makes an astonishing suggestion: work with Gigi Dall'Igna, the gray eminence of the reds of Ducati : " Gigi is not just a person who knows everything about the technique, the dynamics of a motorcycle. He is intelligent, always looking for new ways that others don't follow. Just look at what Ducati looked like before him, and now with him they have become winners. I would like to have him with uss »
However, so as not to offend anyone, he immediately adds: “ but the staff we have at KTM is very strong, I am very happy and we can do well with them too. » But then why claim Gigi in this way? Perhaps to remember his good memories, because if the Italian has little chance of joining the Austrians, the Spaniard can always go to the Italians one day.
Thus, in the same interview, the younger brother ofAleix who is official Aprilia has mentioned : " we speak to all the teams, to understand what everyone's intentions are for next year. I have to say that my priority is to stay at KTM and see what results we will have, to understand if they are as good as I hope, to understand what to do with my career. I'm 28 years old and it's a crucial moment for my career, because Quartararo's young people are arriving quickly. It's not easy to be at the front with a bike that's not at its best.. » And we will recall that the current spearhead of Ducati what Andrea Dovizioso clearly expressed his doubts about the rest of his career in MotoGP...
