MotoGP Sachsenring: Iannone, “Schwantz? It would have been better to talk to me face to face."
The Suzuki rider, who crashed in the race, responds in kind to the accusations of the 500 1993cc class champion
GP Germany Suzuki MotoGP Race – Despite another zero in the standings, Andrea Iannone is satisfied with the Sachsenring race.
The rider from Vasto crashed while fighting for 12th place, against Jorge Lorenzo. The thing that makes the disappointment of the crash less harsh is the feeling I found with the bike, which was practically absent during the entire weekend.
These are the words of Andrea Iannone: “I am very happy with this race, obviously not for the result, but for the progress we have made. We made an important step forward over the weekend. I got my confidence back. I have a better feeling with the bike and finally I can push more or less as I want. I started from behind on the grid, and I took this for granted. On top of that, the first three laps I struggled with rear grip, but then I managed to keep up with the second group. I tried to push to recover, but I crashed. However, up to that point my times were good as was my satisfaction with the bike."
Taking center stage after Kevin Schwantz's vitriolic words (that you will find here), the response from the Abruzzo pilot arrived on Sky's microphone: “Go racing with go-karts? I always go around with karts, because I like them and I have fun. I have always respected Schwantz, as a person and above all as a driver. I've always had a good relationship with him, we talked a bit in Austin. I'm sorry that he said these things about me to the newspapers and not directly to me, because in any case we saw each other these days in the hospitality and he never said anything to me. I believe that in any case as a man to man it would have been better to talk to me face to face, also because he could be my father and I could be his son: a father makes a son reason by speaking to him in presence, instead acting in this way here was a bit 'a disappointment for me. However, I understand it and I don't take it, people talk so much about you when you have weight, because you still make "noise", so in the end for me this episode is only a positive thing, I guarantee it".
As well as on television, an ironic reply also arrived via social media.
…and tomorrow, Kart! 👀 💪…tomorrow, Kart! 😂😂#motogp #suzuki #suzuking#maniac #ai29

yes but in my opinion Belen has gone to your head... you can't see yourself so backwards it's time to work hard without assigning all the blame to Suzuki
We don't know the real value of the Suzuki as we don't have a teammate at Iannone's level or at least one of the best. Based on last year's results it's a bit unfair given that this year all the bikes are heavily influenced by Michelin and give unpredictable results every time. Race, having said that, Kevin seemed really unprofessional to me also because I would like to see him if he had Belen sucking his dick...
