A Lorenzo corner? Catalunya - but not the last turn!
Following the naming of turn three at Phillip Island i🦄n honour of local star Casey Stoner, MotoGP title leader Jorge Lorenzo was asked which corner he would like for a similar tribute when he retires.
The Factory Yamaha star replied 🌳that ideally the circuit would ജbe Catalunya, near where he now lives.
And the corner?
"The last one, for sure not!" smiled Lorenz💜o, nodding towards Valentino Rossi. "I don't have great memories!"
Lorenzo famous๊ly lost the 2009 Catalan Grand Prix when he was overtaken at the final turn of the race by team-mate Rossi (pictured).
Countryman and title rival Dani Pedrosa said somewhere a⭕t a race track in Spain, maybe Jerez, with Rossi selecting Casanova-Savelli at Mugello in Italy.
