This is how clear it has been Casey stoner, as always, in an interview with Autosport in which he talks so much about the arrival of Jorge Lorenzo as from his work with the Italian brand. Even without having been at Yamaha, the Australian's time at Honda has made him understand the differences between the way the Italian teams work and the Japanese. And while Yamaha has always been more flexible, having been in the Iwata factory team for so many years makes their journey more difficult.

And it will be even more so if we take into account that all their regular technicians will stay at Yamaha to become part of the Maverick Viñales team. Losing the environment of trust that, in the end, are those who best know the character and way of thinking of Jorge Lorenzo, it will make the change even more complicated than if you took your team.

The Australian pilot acknowledged that " at first it will be very hard for him. He's been at Yamaha for many years, which is a very, very different bike. Also, Japanese and Italian styles are very different in essence. It will take some time for you to adapt, there is no question about it. Even so, we know what Jorge is like and we know how hard he works to achieve results"

What's more the aussie praises Jorge Lorenzo's intelligence, and your ability to solve problems. Ducati will work very hard in the direction that the Mallorcan marks them in order to be able to extract as much as possible from the bike.

For now, rule out doing anything beyond development work

Similarly, the recurring question asked of Casey stoner is if, at some point, he will take the leather suit again and not just to walk around in test tests. But the Australian is clear that at the moment it does not enter into their plans.

Its aim is to ensure that the Ducati riders, currently Andrea Dovizioso and Andrea Iannone and next year with Jorge Lorenzo, are able to go as quickly as possible. And for now, the job is to make next year's bike be ready asap.
