“I have it as a fact that Audi, the brand that controls Ducati, made him a great offer.”
This statement by Giacomo Agostini attributed to the Italian site quotidiano.net and reported by the site MotoGP.com undermines the words of Jorge Lorenzo who declared that he only had one offer from Yamaha.
His recent visit to the Porsche Center in Barcelona, a brand which, like Audi and Ducati, belongs to the Volkswagen group, reminded some of that of Casey Stoner at Lamborghini, another brand of the same group.
A few months later, the Australian rider formalized his contract with Ducati.
Will it be the same for Jorge Lorenzo or was it just a bluff to enhance his salary at Yamaha, a sort of one-cushion billiards move?
New challenge or poker game, the fact remains that the Mallorcan pilot will also have to deal with the murderous little sentence of his teammate, in the event of being kept in the fold!
We will not forget that, in this game of lying poker that we are witnessing, the 15 times world champion Giacomo Agostini is today closely linked to Yamaha…
