By now there is little doubt, Jorge Lorenzo will become a Ducati rider. According to a report in the ‘Gazzetta dello sport ‘ the final details have been filed, missing only the formality which should arrive in the coming days, even already in Austin where on Sunday the scene is the third event of the season. Super contract for an amount of EUR 25 million, many more than the nine million to 10 million of Yamaha.
The certainty is that the economic issue was not the only force behind Lorenzo to accept the proposal from Ducati, the not so good atmosphere in Yamaha box is increasingly evident and in addition the networth of the Ducati could push Lorenzo to fight even for the title.
For Ducati Andrea Iannone, the relationship has cracked after the Grand Prix of Argentina, the mistake has cost the double podium.
