In a video that is both poignant – since it reveals a helpless man – and pathetic – because it has the whiff of self-criticism worthy of the dark hours of political trials – Manu Gonzalez apologized outright to the Chinese people for his staging at the last Japanese Grand Prix. An initiative where he had displayed a local symbol, the Hachimaki, which turned out to be such a great offense in China that it now calls into question the continuation of his Moto2 season with the Gresini team.
These apologies are also a demonstration that the Chinese manufacturer QJ Motor is indeed very upset against Manu Gonzalez whose He demanded the head in a statement which therefore no longer leaves any doubt about its official meaning. At Gresini, we have not yet complied with the ukase while on the side of the pilot, who will certainly remember this victory for a long time Moto2 In Japan, we make our act of contrition on social networks:
Manu Gonzalez: " I never intended to disrespect or offend the feelings of the Chinese people. »
« I am writing this message to apologize to anyone in China who was offended by some of my photos taken on the starting grid of the Japanese Grand Prix at Motegi " begins the Spaniard.
He adds : " This is not a political message, they were simply images related to the country that hosted us for the race. I never intended to disrespect or offend the feelings of the Chinese people ". And he ends: “ It was an unintentional disrespectful gesture and I am sorry for it once again and I hope I can be forgiven and always have your support thank you ". That's how the world goes...
