MOTOGP: JORGE LORENZO'S APPROACH NOT WORKING FOR DUCATI SAYS DOVIZIOSO


3-time champ is under-performing since his switch from Yamaha to Ducati...He's teammate Andreas Dovizioso thinks Lorenzo's approach is too 'inflexible' for Ducati. 

"To be strong in today's MotoGP is very difficult because there are many aspects to consider," said Dovizioso. 

"I don't want to go into too many details, but Jorge was used to riding one type of bike and he had very clear ideas about how to ride and how to work. 

"This type of approach does not work for Ducati. 

"Nothing takes away from what a great champion Jorge Lorenzo was and still is. But the results can't be obtained in the same way. 

"Rather, for every situation you must try to be mentally open and adapt to get the maximum out of it." 

Ducati CEO, Claudio Domenicali, echoed his concern recently when he was speaking at a media event at 'Scrambler Ducati Food Factory' in Bologna saying "Lorenzo is a great rider who has not succeeded in getting the best from our bike, a bike that has great strength and some weaknesses.

"Unfortunately neither him nor the technicians have managed to make the most of his talent. 

"This is a bit of bitterness that remains."
