Next year, Jorge Lorenzo will have his work cut out for him. New team with Ducati, a bike very different from a Japanese machine with the Desmosedici, and a dedicated team so unique that it still needs to be built. Who will be the leader, completely devoted to his pilot? Ramon Forcada has handed over and will remain with Yamaha. So, the name of the lucky person?
In an interview with GPOne, Valentino Rossi gave his comment on the situation. By emphasizing the essential line that must appear on the CV of the candidate for a position of high responsibility: having already been around this Italian motorcycle with a strong character. And understand your environment.
The first name that popped up once the Forcada case was settled was a Romagnoli who currently works at Pramac. He rubbed shoulders Lorenzo during his time at Yamaha. And he now knows the Ducati. But it's someone else's coast that's going up right now. Some Gabarrini. Yes, the one who accompanied Stoner during his red period before following him to Honda, a brand for which he still works following Miller.
In addition to his Ducati experience, Gabarrini would be the perfect link between Lorenzo the titular leader and a Stoner test pilot ready to relive his career vicariously. To be continued…
