Jorge Lorenzo (Repsol Honda) is rumored to be retiring this season following a series of minor results he achieved in the last few seasons
Reporting from La Gazzetta, Lorenzo is said to be considering 'hanging a helmet' at the end of the 2019 MotoGP season later.
Jorge Lorenzo is believed to be utilizing his recovery and rest time after a crash in the Netherlands some time ago, namely by thinking deeply about his future in MotoGP.
Some time ago, the boss of the Forward Racing team, Giovanni Cuzari, a close friend of Lorenzo, revealed this to La Gazzetta dello Sport.
Even Lorenzo reportedly deeply regretted his move from Yamaha 3 years ago which made him worse until now.
The injury suffered by Jorge Lorenzo is indicated to be one factor for X Fuera to take the decision.
In addition, Jorge Lorenzo's performance which has not improved with Repsol Honda is also called a driving factor.
This news immediately circulated to almost all the team paddocks in MotoGP and also the big media of MotoGP.
Alberto Puig, boss of the Repsol Honda team, claimed he knew nothing about Jorge Lorenzo's retirement plan.
But Puig himself did not give a strong statement rejecting the rumors, so this rumor was increasingly rolling uncontrollably.
Whether or not this rumor is true, only time can answer it.
