After appearing on the "Masked Singer", Jorge Lorenzo continues to remain in the spotlight and appeared on Spain’s 'El Larguero' radio show on Saturday, commenting on the some of the hot topics in MotoGP.

The five-time world champion started by referring to Marc Marquez, who continues to recover from his arm injury: "I haven’t spoken to Marc for a long time. I think the fact he wanted to come back as soon as possible had negative consequences and it’s a real pity, first for him and Honda, but also for motorcycling in general”, explains Lorenzo. "Marc has an innate talent, he was one of my toughest rivals, the best on the grid”.

The controversy with Dovizioso continues


He then moved on to his favourite target, Andrea Dovizioso, repeating what he already said on Instagram: "Dovizioso always remembers me. He’s always been fixated on me. I think it’s an obsession, an old envy. I’m direct and this is my opinion".

In conclusion, Jorge Lorenzo praised Joan Mir on his championship win: "He deserves it, he’s a talented rider with ambition, energy, aggression”, comments Lorenzo. "He’s a guy who expresses his opinion, we need people who add a little spice to what is, in my opinion, such a politically correct world".
