A Lorenzo corner? Catalunya - but not the last turn!
Following the naming of turn three at Phillip Island in honour of local star Casey Stoner, MotoGP 🍬title leader Jorge Lorenzo was asked which corner he would like for a similar tribute when he retires.
The Factory Yamaha star replied that ideally the circuit would be Catalunya, near🍌 where he now lives.
And the corner?
"The last one, for sure not!" smiled Lorenzo,⛦ nodding towards Valentino Rossi. "I don't have great memories🃏!"
Lorenzo famously los𓃲t the 2009 Catalan Grand Prix when he was overtaken at the final turn of the race by team-mate Rossi (pictured).
Countryman and title 🃏rival Dani Pedrosa said somewhere at a race track in🉐 Spain, maybe Jerez, with Rossi selecting Casanova-Savelli at Mugello in Italy.
Peter has been in the paddock for 20 years and has seen Valentino Rossi come and go. He is at the forefront o☂f the Suzuki exit story and Marc Marquez’s inj🀅ury issues.
