DEEP RED The question, rather than a signature, it had become a real thriller, with rivers of hypotheses and theses relating to an already written contract, but kept silent. Finally the cards are revealed and the practice of Lorenzo through Ducati has officially filed with the Spaniard on the Desmosedici for the biennium 2017-2018 . Now, however, that the most important player in the market has moved, we will have to figure out who will take his place at Yamaha, who between Andrea Iannone and Andrea Dovizioso will be reconfirmed in Borgo Panigale, if Maverick vinales remain in Suzuki or where race Pedrosa . So there is still much to understand and the best is yet to come.
NINE YEARS AFTER Jorge Lorenzo so will leave the House of Iwata, but not before end of 2016 when will end on his contract and his ninth year of stay in the Yamaha . Nine years together, seven of which he lived under the media shadow of his teammate Valentino Rossi, in which Lorenzo won three World titles (2010, 2012 and 2015) . It ‘was the Japanese manufacturer to have given prior to the news, stating that at the end of this year the Spaniard will not be their official driver. Soon after came the confirmation from Ducati. Maximum accuracy.
LET’S START THE SHOW The news was expected and hoped for by many, because the move to Lorenzo will bring even more interest, and money, to the MotoGP . Certainly the challenge for Lorenzo is tempting, especially since next year will try to give a resounding slap in the face former teammate, trying to do better right where Rossi had failed , or when the two years 2011 and 2012 Ducati put the number 46 on the hull of the GP, but did not go over to a third and two second places in two years. Let the show begin!
SEEMS EASY On balance, to do better than Valentino , to Lorenzo also suffice only win a race on the Ducati . Of course, the level of the Desmosedici Today is very High , but do not forget that when you Red in 2011 passed on red Borgo Panigale inherit a motion winning , one with which Casey Stoner won at Phillip Island the third last race of the 2010. ‘still early, of course, to speak of victories and statistics and Ducati has all it takes to win already this year. But in fact, Lorenzo signing a contract to get on a motorcycle that from that race in Australia in mid-October 2010 has not won a GP .
VIL MONEY more or less noble motivations aside, even putting figure on the plate by Ducati’s record stuff: 25 million euro in two years . A figure that Jorge Lorenzo would become the highest paid driver on the grid. Of course, the gesture will surely be dictated by the desire to make history, to bring the Ducati to the splendors of 2007 when he won the World Championship with Casey Stoner, but …
BOOMERANG EFFECT All over this, Jorge Lorenzo will not be the only one to put into question, indeed. It ‘just the same Ducati that if the five-time world champion fails, would be the first to be accused of his unsuccessful . Lorenzo fact will always have a record of his career and the ability to change in 2019, maybe going up right on Rossi’s Yamaha in 2019 will be forty years old and probably no longer in MotoGP. After all, Lorenzo’s move was really smart and surely this year will give his 110% to try to win a world more and have more “excuse” if he fails to Ducati. In practice, if he wins will go into history, triggered by the failure it can always blame Ducati which until now has not been able to win a World Cup won by the one in 2007 with Stoner.
WHO LOVES ME FOLLOW MI At the team level, we will have to see if Lorenzo will take away even his old chief mechanic Ramon Forcada . The choice seems almost inevitable, but Ducati’s someone else who really like to Lorenzo: Gigi Dall’Igna . It seems that it is precisely the current head of the Ducati MotoGP project to have been the deus ex machina of the passage of Jorge on the Italian red . Between the two there is friendship and admiration, not by chance the Spaniard won his first two world titles with him and Aprilia 250.
VALUE C ‘it is another element that makes choosing Lorenzo even more clever, or rather two. Which? First of all Casey Stoner , just the driver who has won the only title of Ducati history to act as a valuable ally of Majorcan as a official test . The other, may be Andrew Dovizioso , who knows very well the bike, has a style very clean driving tackles and races with similar methodical approach, in fact, that Lorenzo. Or Andrew Iannone , who with his impetuous guide could help Lorenzo to do battle in front of them, without asking too many bows. In short, in this case, choice of one over the other as a teammate could be still favorable the Spanish .
