- For sure Jorge Lorenzo was something special on the racetrack. He had one of the most unique riding styles MotoGP riders ever saw, he was a joy to watch for many!
However, he called time on his racing career, sure it was a tough call, but why! Why did such a talented rider call time on his illustrious career so suddenly when he had just signed for one of the greatest teams on the track at that time.
Jorge Lorenzo kicked off his racing career when he was only 15. He built his reputation from the ground up by achieving some of the best performances in MotoGP. After a few years at the top, he switched to different manufacturers and ended his career with Honda where things didn’t go to plan. He had a nasty injury which worried him at Assen in 2019, which we’ll go into later, but he did say it was one of those moments in his career that made him think very seriously about his future.
Did you know that Jorge stated he almost returned to MotoGP with Ducati in 2021. He said, if a deal sounded right and we could reach an agreement, then yes I would race again! Stay tuned to find out the true story behind his retirement, and a glimpse into his illustrious career, and why we think Jorge Lorenzo Was Something Special on the Racetrack.

Jorge Lorenzo won against some of the best riders in MotoGP history. In our eyes that left him special because he was up against the best of the best! Was Jorge a fan of yours? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!
Nope. But I was a fen of him!! LOL
With Stoner my favorite rider
I've always playing as him in old MotoGP video game series.
"When Lorenzo is in the zone, he is untouchable. Everyone remembers my battles with Vale, but Jorge was the toughest rival of my career." Casey Stoner
Definitely! When he entered that zone, he was off! Most of the top riders all admitted it. A well deserved champion - thanks for your comment 🏍️👍
@@motoplusgp thanks for your vids brother... I just found your channel the other day, the algorithm dropped the Doohan video in my feed and the algorithm knows what I like. I'm loving your work, so you sir have earned yourself a new subscriber.
@@C.Fecteau-AU-MJ13 Appreciate you brother!! Always nice to hear people love the videos! 👍👍
IMO Casey and Jorge had a similar style and mentality in racing. They would both find a consistent rhythm early, and if either got the lead they were untouchable. People would say it is boring racing, but I beg to differ.
@@LushmanGB they could look quite alike, but there was a big difference, Stoner really did not trust the front, therefore used his rear tire to slide the back out, Jorge was a front tire rider with a lot of corner speed, made possible by the Yamaha geometry a style that always suited the inline four, the Ducati never liked relying on front tires diving into corners.
It is interesting that Stoner and Jorge both mastered the Ducati, Rossi never managed to command the Ducati, which still makes him a fantastic rider, only in my mind behind the two others when it came to all out talent.
He is the only rider to beat Rossi, Stoner, Marquez for race wins and world championships. Had a smooth riding style and a joy to watch in full flow!
That smooth riding style!!! He was ace to watch. 🏍️🏍️👍
@@motoplusgp that he was, if he had this year’s Ducati he would be untouchable as for once the Ducati can turn and be fast😜
My all time hero in Moto gp will be Lorenzo forever
this dude will always be my king of motogp
Ours too, great rider!
Lorenzo was one of the smoothest riders in MotoGP!
He sure was! He was a joy to watch, and a great champion! Thanks for stopping by and commenting 🏍🏍👍
Agree. He rode that yamaha like it was on rails
@@juliansw3110 boy did he not!!
That's what I was going to say
Hard as nails, broke his collarbone at Assen, crashing at 150mph on Friday and raced to 5th on Sunday
Yea I remember it well, couldn't believe it when he said I'll be racing on Sunday! Great rider! TOUGH! Thanks for your comment. 👍🏍️🏍️
Jorge Lorenzo was one of a kind racer, his buttery smooth riding style is so elagant to watch, even his race starts were amazing at that time where hole shot devices were not in use, once he hits the front , then its game over. Such a legend to the sport
So true - if he every got ahead, the riders knew he was off!
Jorge Lorenzo 99 one of my favorite MotoGP champion's 🏆🥇
He had the smoothest cornering style, he didn't hang off the bike, no leg dangle, complete control 💪🏼
He was a class act! - Thanks for your comment...🏍️👍
one of the Aliens
Yes he was hdt ace - thanks for your comment 🏍🏍👍
I would love to see Jorge back in MotoGP
That would be nice for sure, he was a great talent - thanks for your comment. 🏍️👍
I like your videos, but you had a couple facts wrong. He wore the number 1 in 2011. After winning the 2010 championship. In 2009 he changed his number to 99, the same number Jeremy McWilliams used while he raced in MotoGP. He is an absolute legend. Even me being a Rossi fan, I entered in a go kart race and told myself to do a Lorenzo, which I did, leading from start to finish and doing consistent fast lap times. A very underrated rider and if Ducati believed in him more I reckon he could have won the championship in 2020 and possibly 2019. Keep up these quality vids 👍👍
Nice catch LushmanGB - Yip it was 2011...I even said in the video he won in 2010, 2012 and again in 2015! After the 2010 title that earned him the right for No 1. Sometimes typos get through, tired eyes on my part buddy! Yea he was a fantastic racer...one of my favourites. I remember him coming along and spicing things up for Rossi...didn't go down to well in the Yamaha garage! I'm a fan of Rossi too, but Lorenzo earned his titles -- Glad you like the videos , thanks for your comment 🏍️🏍️🏍️👍
Totally agree, what were Ducati thinking!!!!
He has beaten the bests in the world. He has become one of the best in the world.
Super talented!
Definitely miss his presence in moto gp Jorge a true champion
Even tough he has a big Ego we have a massive respect for him 💯😈 brilliant rider
Lorenzo sure liked to showboat when he win a race...he just wated to have some fun! A very talented rider, so smooth on the racetracks when he got in to his rhythm! Thanks for your comment 🏍️🏍️👍
like he showed in Valencia 2017. though.
My Idol. ❤
Valentino Rossi once said I don't deserve such a strong teammate.
I remember that, and a strong teammate he was - thanks for your comment 🏍🏍👍
Yea a great rider and a great riding style, and his race at Assen a day after surgery was amazing. That is all heart! He had some of the worst highsides I have ever seen, right up there with Marquez and Christian Sarron. I would have retired after just one. Hats off to you sir.
I can't even give this a LIKE. The LIKES are stuck at 99 which is PERFECT!!!!
😆 Nice one!
Exelente rider with a touch on the Acelarador equal to a surgery, as to the number that should have always used was the 48, the tragetoria lines were perfect without errors and the others who tried to overcome it was almost impossible. A character that the end changed a lot to human, had helmet painting choice Very good💪🇵🇹🇵🇹
He was great...very smooth! Thanks for your comment 👍
I think riding with a number 1 on the front of your bike should be mandatory for the reigning world champion... It's a tradition, and there's no motorsport more steeped in tradition than grand prix motorcycle racing. Plus I think it puts more pressure on the champion to be at the front, because nothing makes a fall from grace more obvious than the number one bike sitting on the third row of the grid, it makes you more of a target on track and people who are watching MotoGP for the first few times can easily pick out who's the number one ranked motorcycle racer in the world... Because there's a number one literally on the bike.
I also think you shouldn't be allowed to ride with a number that's lower than the ranking you achieved last season. So if you're usually number 3, but you ranked 7th last year, you're gonna have to pick a number greater than 7, if you don't want to just be 7.
It's something I've thought about a lot obviously, I really don't like how Vale popularised the use of your "marketing number" when you're the reigning world champion. I know he didn't do it first, but he made it the norm and I'm glad Stoner and Jorge went the traditional route.
Rant over.
You know you have a valid point. Definitely new comers starting to watch MotoGP would know straight away who won the previous year when they can follow the no1.
Us avid fans that have been watching for years will be able to identify who's who. Identifying them by the no1 on the front of their bikes would help a lot!
@@motoplusgp And it's the casual observer, the new comers, which any successful sporting promotion MUST be focused on the most. The rusted on fans are gonna watch no matter what, the key to keeping the sport contemporary is how you make it easy to get into if you didn't grow up watching it. I mean, I started watching it with my dad as soon as I was old enough to want to do whatever dad was doing, so it's not something I had really had to learn. Getting up to speed if you didn't speak motorcycle in the house as a child, I'd have to imagine, would be more complicated than people who are fluent would think.
@@C.Fecteau-AU-MJ13 Yip, there's always the newcomers that want to get into this sport! I've been watching it from god knows when, and remember my nephew asking me on several occasions...and who's that racer, and who's the man behind him. 😆😆 It brought him up to speed though.
Qué pilotas que tenía Jorge Lorenzo🙋♂️🇪🇦🏍🔥💤❎. RR RACE MAS GASS. Mucho pilotaje.👍✌🔝🏁 es un mito español
I wasn't even one of his fan, but I admit it how great he was to battle with those greatest riders also how he stand with his own style, like tbh he's one of from many great riders & champions there who have strong character whether on track/off track
Yea, it showed how good he was when he was winning against tough rivals at that time! Thanks for your comment. 🏍️👍
Good solid rider, on his best day no one can come close to the guy but...... bike has to be perfect, weather has to be perfect, tire has to be perfect, setup has to be perfect, in order for him to shine.
Lorenzo never reached his full potential.. 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
I agree, he'd plenty more races left in him too!
@@motoplusgp 100%
And now, he is a gt racing driver
True talent, he is missed, some great rides
Yea, retired too soon, he's missed! Thanks for your comment.
Actually Lorenzo should be the Champion in 2013 if he didn't re injured his collarbone at Sachsenring a week after his heroic comeback. His 2nd half was really sensational that year. Shame Marc was under controlled whatever he threw.
Born tough
Yea he sure was! 🏍️👍
Why show pics of motogp when talking about a 250 season?
I thought you'd going to show us why he was departed as a Yamaha test Rider in 2020. I just knew that Cal would replacing him as a test rider, without knowing the real reason why Lorenzo gone.
Mate, really slick channel but so many mistakes with the visuals. Please fix these and I'm sure you're channel with explode. Good luck 👍
We'll try harder Al - thanks for your comment 👍
Wrong. He didn't decide to leave Ducati! Domenicali told him in Mugello that Ducati had decided to not renew his contract! Therefore, Jorge contacted HRC and signed for them.
as much as I don’t like him I think that if he didn’t get injured in 2018 and Ducati supported him more he could have challenged 2019 Marquez and won 2020
He beat Rossi on their head to head race battles , just like Stoner & Márquez did.
True, and on a matching factory bike. He was great to watch! Thanks for your comment!
hater
He left Ducati because he was sacked by them, that's why he went honda. Was not his choice to leave, Ducati tossed him to the side very quickly, he then found his feet.
Yea Ducati weren't renewing his contract. They never give a specific reason, but the speculation on the reduction of his salary a few months running up to their decision had to have played a part!
Map 8, map 8!
Man I don't know what your talking about most of the time in this video, confusingly edited and lacks segues. Also a shame you didn't touch on his successes at Ducati. Your other videos are great though dude, good work.
Hi Zane David, sorry if the video confused you! Glad you like the other videos. Thanks for your feedback and your comment! 🏍️👍
he has really think he can handle the Demon Beast Honda but unfortunately the Honda not let him ride on his shoulders 😓, it was a very bad decision from him to go to Honda after Ducati, it´s ending very sad with him.
Ducati didn't re-sign him..
Yea the Honda signing didn't go to well for him. He was just getting to grips with the Ducati too, but that's how it goes sometimes. Would have loved to have seen him staying a few years with Ducati and winning some more! Thanks for your comment! 🏍️👍
It just didn't suit his style... The RCV of that generation was set up for Marc, after being built for Stoner's style. They ride with much more throttle on the exit of corners, Stoner was always worried about losing the front so he used the wheel spin to turn the motorcycle, while Jorge preferred to carry more speed during the corner and get on the throttle more gradually. A technique that the Yamaha seemed to favour more.
Stoner did a really good interview on a podcast called "Gypsy Tales" where he went in depth on this exact topic and why the Honda worked for him and Marc, but not for Jorge. I highly recommend giving it a listen if you're interested.
@@125kingo125 yea I know, it would have been nice though to see it as we could have seen some more from him!
@@C.Fecteau-AU-MJ13 yea listened to it...it was a really good interview and great insight into a racer mind.
He can't be a multiple world champion if he is not special.
He was a champ, lost his bottle a bit at the end and definitely not a wet race gun but in the dry very fast.
Sure was a champ. I agree with you when he rode in wet conditions, he wasn't just as strong, but in dry conditions...especially when he got into the lead...he was off! Thanks for your comment. 🏍️👍
Jorge WHO? Ah, the guy who get a Championship because of Marquez.
Indeed a great rider, one of the best. But undeniably helped by MM to win the title in 2015.
Rossi picked a fight with Marquez, how did that work out for him. Nothing to do with Lorenzo.
Rossi talked shit about Márquez after Phillip Island race. Márquez's tactics in Australia were no different to past races, but Rossi tends to think everything revolves around him and Uccio conviced him to protest. After Argentina and Assen incidents, it was too much for Márquez and he decided to shout his mouth up on the track, nothing to do with Lorenzo.
Anyway, Rossi didn't had the pace in Sepang and Valencia, fourth place was the best result he could have achieved in both races, regardless of Márquez (his third place in Sepang after KICKING him out was even a present).
He’s that good So where is he now #go46 😂
Ahh, a 46
As usual no respect for other riders. Worst fans of motorcycle sports ever, disrespectful and disgraceful.
this video is so mixed up.....
My all time hero in Moto gp will be Lorenzo forever
Jorge was great to watch...so smooth! Thanks for your comment.
