If the article is accurate, AFAIK, the Aspar track is tarmac only so he would have been riding a “road” bike ? Nasty bone to break, he’ll miss official testing and likely as not, won’t be fit for Buriram in 6 weeks. I wonder who else is going to screw up during pre season preparations. Andy
Dig deeper in that article and you see Jorge Lorenzo is working with Maverick Vinales. Not sure if I want to laugh or cry Andy
They’ve been working together for a couple of months now my only surprise is they haven’t “decided to go their separate ways” yet!
“Bringing Jorge into this journey is a huge opportunity to learn and improve in every aspect,” Vinales said via Instagram. “His experience and outside perspective will help us take confident steps forward. “I’m starting this new stage with great motivation and excitement.” Lorenzo added: “Maverick has always had natural talent and great speed. “My role is to accompany him, share my experience and knowledge, and help him reach his best version. “I strongly believe that if we improve in each of the key areas, success will be inevitable.” They can’t expect us to believe this surely
In the modern era, probably the 2 most petulant teddy throwers on the grid. Certainly right up there with the riders who seem most challenged when they are required to mix it up in close quarters. Oh yes, and it's always someone else's fault Andy
