Just read on the Moto GP FB page, JL will be holding a press conference at Valencia at 3pm central European time today. I'm not going to speculate. Andy
Should be no surprise, has no motivation for racing anymore so Valencia will be his last professional race. Andy
Speculate away. Who genuinely could be in the frame ? I would have thought Quartararo has the carrot of Rossi’s seat in 2021 and Zarco is more a replacement for Crutchlow than JL and please don’t suggest Marquez junior, that would be just a travesty. Andy
So he's jacked, fair enough. Why didn't they just slap a Yamaha tank on the Honda. Job Jobbed. Worked with the Ducati...
Did you watch him deliver his speech? Mate, that was one broken man on the point of tears finally admitting to himself as much as to the world, he doesn't have the motivation or the patience to work for another year in the vain hope of a top 5 or podium on the Honda. As a 5 time world champion, there is no denying the talent he had on a bike that suited his style but I have never warmed to him although I'll give him kudos for standing up today. Andy
No, didn't see it. But I've seen a couple of recent interviews and it was painfully obvious he'd lost it. His confidence and motivation were clearly shot. He doesn't need the dough and he's nothing to prove. It's impossible for him to get back to the sharp end all things considered. He's done the right thing, no question. Good luck to him. Jammy twat. He'll never have to go out to shitty oil rigs. Like me
There's word of him running a Moto 3 team in the Spanish championship .. Maybe he will go back to yam as a test rider? Crazy talk...although they have given Folger the flick, but word is it's an all jap thing on that front. You'd have to put zarco in the seat wouldn't ya? Maybe crash low on a 1 year contract and zarco on his bike .
