Now will Jorge Lorenzo be able to win?

But behind the much-discussed pilot there is a man from the past not always easy and of a pilot who snatched with teeth every finish line.
A part of her private life was confessed to Bertin Osborne in the program “Mi casa es la tuya” on Telecinco. The love for two-wheelers comes from the age of three. When his father built his first tailor-made bike with his own hands: “My father loved motorcycles. What he could not do he did for his son. We didn’t have the money to buy a motorcycle and my father built it in pieces.” At 10 years old he had to take his first great life decision and choose with which of the two parents to go after their separation. “I knew if I had chosen my mother, my sporting career would be over and I went with my father. All the money we had invested in the bike. So, it often left us without dinner and without holidays and my mother didn’t like it”.
