New television adventure for five-time world champion Jorge Lorenzo. In Spain, and elsewhere, he is becoming a star.
Jorge Lorenzo has left the world championship of MotoGP at the end of 2019, after a difficult season astride Honda, punctuated by injuries and uninspiring results. On the occasion of the last Valencia Grand Prix he announced his farewell with a press conference in the presence of Carmelo EzpeletaCEO of Dorna, canceling the contract signed with HCR one year before the deadline.
He tried to stay glued to the MotoGP paddock, signing a one-year contract as a test rider Yamaha, a brand that allowed him to confirm his three-time world champion in the premier class. Partly the events linked to the pandemic, partly for other reasons, the relationship with the Iwata manufacturer soon stalled, reducing itself to a few laps on the track, definitively closing the experience in MotoGP. Soon the five-time Majorcan champion followed another path: travel, luxury, four wheels and TV appearances.
