Jorge Lorenzo, second in the general classification with 39 points behind Marc Marquez, was particularly sarcastic when commenting on the against the current leader of the MotoGP world championship.

Far from the very civilized exercise which the pilots generally engage in during the pre-race press conferences, "Jorgueil" fired red balls on the race management, touching in the same group shot of particularly acid remarks his main 2013 title opponent…

Without ever naming him, Lorenzo scattered Marquez and the race management "puzzle style", coldly ironic – too much for some observers! – on the fact that it was "is not correct to have removed a point from his license"…

"The right decision would have been to add a point in the championship!"

"For me, the right decision would have been to add a point to him in the championship!", Declared Lorenzo under the dumbfounded gaze of Marquez: "so that the Moto3 and Moto2 riders could follow the style of this rider and do the same, so that our sport offers a better spectacle ".

Because "the safety of the pilots is not that important, what counts is the spectacle!", Continued Lorenzo before citing three "daring" maneuvers of Marquez this year: "the action of was a great show (Marquez had collided with Lorenzo in the last bend, Editor’s note), then seeing the marshals running like chickens at was a great show (Marquez had not taken into account the yellow flags that came out following Crutchlow’s fall, Editor’s note), or when he overtook Valentino while passing off the track "…

"I think they should encourage this kind of action among young pilots", concluded the Catalan who had already protested several times against the too daring maneuvers of pilots like Marco Simoncelli, or even his holiness Valentino Rossi.

The end of the season promises to be muy caliente !

Site readers – who, as everyone knows, have a little more memory than others – will easily remember the words of the double world champion after being jostled by Rossi during the …

“The show was great for everyone and for the motorcycle industry, it’s fantastic, but when you’re a rider and you’re on a MotoGP prototype that goes 300 km / h in a straight line and 180 -200 km / h in the turns, and that one is pushed by another pilot, it is never pleasant because one knows that one puts his life in danger … I think that the three or four Overshoots that I made on Valentino were correct. On the other hand, his maneuvers were from my point of view legal, but at the limit ", regretted the future world champion..

"We know how he likes to fight, it happened before with Gibernau, then with Stoner and now with me. In the future, maybe his opponents will have enough and we will do like him! – teammates, I am fighting for the championship, but we are also fighting for the team and constructor championships and we have to keep that in mind. I am of course disappointed to miss the podium because I wanted to do it here at Yamaha , but it’s racing! "

But Marc Marquez, against whom Jorge Lorenzo is rebelling today, is riding for Honda … The n ° 1 in the category could therefore be more inclined to fight back this time: "if that does not change, others will drive aggressively ", has already warned the Yamaha rider … Let it be said: the end of the season promises to be" muy caliente " !
