Jorge Lorenzo will become 'MotoGP Legend' in Jerez

53

Jorge Lorenzo, five times world champion and the first Spanish rider to register his name as MotoGP winner, in 2010, and also the first to win the title twice (2012) and repeat a third (2015), will become, for finally, a member of the championship hall of fame, an honor that was announced on the day of his hasty retirement, in November 2019, but that due to the outbreak of the pandemic could not be carried out.

This Monday, the official page of the championship, announced that Jorge Lorenzo will receive his more than deserved recognition as ‘ MotoGP Legend’ during the next Spanish Grand Prix, which will be held in Jerez de la Frontera, a talismanic circuit for Jorge and in which a of its curves (the 13) bears his name, between April 28 and May 1.

Lorenzo will thus become the 33rd member of the MotoGP Hall of Fame, whose last member has been the Italian Valentino Rossi, who after his retirement last November in Valencia was automatically incorporated during the celebration party of the final of the 2021 season, held that same Sunday.

The Mallorcan will be the fifth Spaniard to become a ‘MotoGP Legend’, after the sadly deceased Angel Nieto , Jorge Martínez Aspar , Dani Pedrosa and the first and only Spanish champion in the premier class, Alex Crivillé , who won the 500cc title in 1999 .

In addition to Lorenzo, MotoGP announced that Max Biaggi and Hugh Anderson will also be recognized this year to enter the ‘Hall of Fame’ of the World Championship. Both, like the Mallorcan, were going to join in 2020, but the pandemic has delayed their entry.

In the case of Biaggi, a four-time 250cc world champion, the induction ceremony into the hall of fame will be on the Friday of the Italian Grand Prix , which takes place in Mugello at the end of May, while, in principle, the New Zealander Hugh Anderson will receive his recognition at Phillip Island, where he is scheduled to contest the Australian Grand Prix in mid-October.
