MotoGP Aragon: Jorge Lorenzo “There are still 4 races to go but it's tougher now”

Jorge Lorenzo also tried to win today (it would have been his third consecutive victory) in Aragon, but he had to surrender to Marc Marquez and his Honda. The Majorcan has therefore lost 5 points to his compatriot, who now has a 39 point advantage. The word is up to him.

“It's a shame, but in the last laps Marc (Marquez, ed.) pulled away and I was no longer able to keep up with him. At that moment he built up a good lead and I couldn't fight for the victory with him. The tire choice was right, but today Marc was stronger.”

What's missing to be on par with Honda?

“We are working hard, the bike has improved, in Misano we took another step, we are always giving 100% but it's not always enough.”

Pedrosa seems to have fallen due to the contact he had with Marquez, what do you think?

“I haven't seen the images, but I have to say that Dani was once again unlucky, like in other years, but he is strong and will come back stronger than before.”

The World Cup? what changes now?

“There are four races left and anything can happen and as long as the title is not arithmetically lost we have to try, but we have to work because I can no longer "escape" at the start and we have to change strategy."
