The MotoGP world championship is decided in laSexta this coming Saturday and Sunday. Jorge Martín vs. Pecco Bagnaia. The gap is 24 points in favor of the Madrilenian, who starts as the big favorite. But former driver Jorge Lorenzo asks him not to contest the Barcelona Solidarity Grand Prix confident
This is what he said in an interview with ‘Corriere dello Sport’, where he described This 2024 World Cup is like the World Cup of mistakes.
“Martín has more possibilities, but until the checkered flag, nothing is certain. However, he would have to make a very big mistake not to win. I think Jorge has grown mentally, after all he worked with a sports psychologist to calm his momentum,” says Lorenzo.
Even though Pecco and Jorge were the fastest on the grid, there were plenty of mistakes. Especially for Pecco. “Martín made mistakes, just like Bagnaia: it was the championship of mistakes, but They were both very fast“, he specifies in preview of the Grand Prix.
Publicly support Martín: “If Martín won, it would make me happy, because he is a good, explosive rider who deserves at least one MotoGP title.”
“Bagnaia and Jorge are on the same level in terms of speed and competitiveness, but Martín showed something more in terms of explosiveness and starts. Let’s say that Jorge is more petrol, while Pecco is more diesel, and in the sprints that makes a difference”, concludes Lorenzo.
