This weekend, Misano will keep us in suspense with the sixth meeting of a crazy 15-round season. The site will even have a double representation, since the following Sunday a new Grand Prix will take place, like what Jerez and the Red Bull Ring have already offered us. The news behind the scenes will notably be kept by the choices that will be made by Ducati regarding its future riders. Jack Miller is the only one for the moment who is assured of his future. For the rest, with the departure of Andrea Dovizioso, we have Bagnaia, Zarco and we even say Lorenzo as options. Finally, for the Mallorcan, it definitely seems cooked…

When Andrea Dovizioso et Ducati continued to negotiate the terms of a contract which, ultimately, would never see the light of day, the name of Jorge Lorenzo appeared from time to time in the file. Favorite of Gigi Dall'Igna which, on the contrary, has always had Andrea Dovizioso in the nose, the Mallorcan also liked to maintain doubt by affirming that a good proposal allowing him to imagine that he could play for the title would decide him to put his helmet and suit back on.

These are unfounded fantasies » says the Italian about a possible return of Por Fuera.

The latter indirectly confirms by making this known on the web: “ learn to be satisfied with what you have while still pursuing everything you want ". As for his illustrations, they are far from intensive training. On the other hand, they are a celebration of the sweetness of life between advertising meetings, Lamborghini rides, beautiful girls, walks and relaxation on the shores of Lake Lugano. By the way, it's still cool to be a test pilot Yamaha …but that also raises questions.

On his non-employment, fabio quartararo et Valentino Rossi declared themselves incredulous, referring the question to the brand's decision-makers. The Doctor nevertheless sent a strong message when asked if he would like to see Dovizioso hold this tester position: “of course on Dovizioso! I will immediately sign to have him as a test pilot! I believe and hope that he will find a motorcycle to race because he goes fast".
