Dani Amatriain is a well-rounded Spaniard who had no part in building Jorge Lorenzo's career. For better and for worse, the relationship between the two men has hit the headlines. But he knows the five-time World Champion, as he knows the Espargaró brothers. Two names that fuel the rumor. And you can count on him to revive it…
If he left the Grand Prix radars, Dani Amatriain remains in the competitive environment. And he knows the pilots. On AS, he thus gave his opinion on a Pol Espargaro, future teammate of Marc Marquez at Repsol Honda. A feeling that begins with this assessment that runs counter to the general feeling aboutAlberto Puig : " Alberto Puig made a very smart decision for Pol. If the transfer is finally confirmed, I think Pol will give a lot of trouble with the Honda. I think he can resist Marquez with the Honda. To beat him ? It's something I don't know, because Marquez is at an impressive level, but I'm sure he will resist him ».
“Lorenzo still has two or three years to go to the highest level”
He then moves on to a character who is close to his heart: Jorge Lorenzo : " maybe Lorenzo will do it again. I think Jorge still has two or three years to go at the highest level and, with all the moves that are happening, it wouldn't surprise me to see him back on a bike. Personally, I would like to see him back at the top with the Ducati. These are speculations, but I understand that Ducati must be thinking about it, because Gigi Dall'Igna got along very well with Jorge. They won two world titles when we were together and the relationship was wonderful ».
« Now that it's not clear that Dovizioso will renew, I wouldn't be surprised at all if Ducati signed him. Jorge with the Yamaha had a great time as a tester and I wouldn't be surprised if he did it again. It's difficult to achieve, but it would be a good thing for the championship ».
