Ramon Forcada is the former accomplice of Jorge Lorenzo when he camped in the Yamaha box. Suffice to say that he knows a Por Fuera well with whom he collaborated under the awning struck with the three tuning forks. The couple spent nine seasons together and won three world titles. Furthermore, until his time at Ducati, the Majorcan had only known this chief mechanic in MotoGP. A bond that ended when Jorge Lorenzo decided to leave Yamaha for Ducati. But the two men continue to talk to each other.

We will recall that Ramon Forcada preferred to stay with Yamaha rather than follow his champion. Since then, he has found another one named Maverick Vinales. And given the turn of events since the start of this season, the Spaniard has nothing to regret. Quite the contrary.

Because during this time, Jorge Lorenzo galley. On this situation, the two men discussed and it was Forcada who echoed the comments on Tutomotoriweb : " We all know that Ducati has a completely different philosophy from Japanese motorcycles ».

« Certainly, the Honda, the Yamaha and the Suzuki have their own characteristics. But they come from the same base and therefore remain quite similar. The Ducati, and now the KTM, are not in this case at all ».

He finishes : " Jorge told me that it was hard and that he was in a lot of pain. He is committed and works a lot. But he also thought it would be easier ". After a disastrous Argentine Grand Prix which followed a disappointing race in Qatar, Jorge Lorenzo hopes to see the light in Austin, Texas which will be the third meeting of the season.
