Jaume MasiaValencian Moto2 rider, told on Twitch ‘El Chiringuito’ the anguish that his family and friends experienced in the face of the terrible DANA that hit the Valencian Community. He is from Algemesí, one of the affected towns in the region.
“I am very far from home and this has affected me personally and my family. I can’t help. my mother is alone. What happened in Valencia was crazy,” said the young Spanish driver from Malaysia, where he is racing this weekend.
His garage was flooded, but fortunately his family is okay: “The garage of my house is completely flooded. There I had all the training bikes. But it’s something material. I have videos of cars being washed away on the main streets of my town, “In all the old houses there is water in the kitchen, a lot of mud… It’s hard to take in.”
Ask not to run in Valencia
Just like other pilots did, like Marc Márquez or Pecco BagnaiaMasià requested that the Valencia Grand Prix not take place: “It would be a lack of morale to run in Valencia. There are people who have lost family members. It’s a sport and we have to be human. “Their thing would be to focus on helping everyone affected.”
