Martin: “I know why I fell, but I won’t obsess over it. I don’t want to change.”

Jorge Martinsecond in the championship for the Pramac Racing team, took part in the press conference on Thursday of the British Grand Prix at Silverstone, the tenth round of the 2024 MotoGP world calendar. Below are his statements.

The Sachsenring Mistake

“I want to congratulate Pecco on his wedding, it was a great moment for him and I have known him for many years. Stopping a bit was useful, I haven’t stopped training completely, so as not to lose shape. Together with the team I tried to think back to the fallsit seemed to me similar situations and we will have to understand how to avoid them in the future. They made us lose the lead of the world championship.”

Special Liveries

“The tribute to Nieto? Racing with his colors and his helmet will be special. Paolo was a good friend of Angel and they thought of doing a tribute to his bike.”

Crafar instead of Spencer

“For me it’s an important change. Simon is still riding and has a better understanding of how movements and things work and I think he will be more consistent in his judgments. He talks to us and asks us questions, he’ll be good.”

A special race

“Valencia 2006, I was on the track and met Valentino for the first time. But also Laguna Seca 2008, the most beautiful race ever.”

The negative turn of the Sachsenring

“I won’t change anything. When you crash you try to understand why, trying to improve. I think I was the strongest in Germany and I have to keep that mentality and riding style. Every race is different and you have to understand your opportunities and take the maximum.”

The falls

“Let’s talk about small things, I don’t want to go into details. Now I know why, but it’s very difficult to identify while driving. I will do some tests to improve these aspects, there are some ideas from the team to help me. But I don’t want to obsess, because my way of driving has brought me this far.”

The two races at Misano

“I would have preferred to do one, it reminds me of the Covid period. For me it is a very good track and we will try to have fun.”
