The winner Lorenzo had a dream to win a MotoGP championship at his native place, Spain and finally he realized the dream.
Lorenzo’s Words For Fans and Press:
“It has always been one of my dreams to win a MotoGP race in Spain and this was like a movie, everything that could possibly happen did! It was a very hard race because I made such a bad start and then found it very difficult in the first laps – I gave myself a tough job to do. After that I started to feel better and rode like a demon to get to the front. Once I passed Valentino I knew that I couldn’t take it easy, I had to try everything to win and it was all I could think about. I had a great fight with Dani and in one moment we nearly crashed so I had to try again, on the very last lap! I know it’s better to win races calmly, from the front, but lately that hasn’t been the way for us and I have had to fight on every lap. I saw the lake on Thursday and thought it would be funny to jump in and I think the fans liked it, but I didn’t really think about how heavy I’d be with wet leathers and for a minute I thought I wasn’t going to get out! This has been an amazing day; I can’t believe I’ve achieved this dream of mine, in front of all the Spanish fans at this magical place”
Not a good finish for Valentino Rossi but still maintaining third position on charts at finish made it possible for FIAT YAMAHA Team to achieve another double podium win.
