Jorge Lorenzo refuses to give up title hopes
Print Edition
Jorge Lorenzo has refused to concede his MotoGP crown to rookie sensation Marc Marquez at Sunday’s Australian Grand Prix.
A victory by Marquez at Phillip Island combined with anything worse than second place for fellow Spaniard Lorenzo will hand the 20-year-old the world title with two races to spare.
“I don’t have anything to lose, I have to try and win every race to the end of the season,” Yamaha rider Lorenzo said.
“But the title is not over because Marc is still not the world champion, although it is close to impossible because of the points and unless I win this race.
“But I have always been quite fast at Phillip Island although I have never won the MotoGP race there so maybe this can the first time.”
Lorenzo sealed his second world championship last year at the seaside circuit with a watchful runner up finish behind Casey Stoner, who collected a record sixth consecutive win at Phillip Island before retiring at season’s end.
The 26-year-old Mallorcan also has painful memories of the circuit, however, having mangled a finger at morning practice in 2011 and crashed at the first turn in 2009.
