Lorenzo gunning for French GP coup

Movistar Yamaha’s Jorge Lorenzo is keen on continuing his good form by pushing for a victory in the upcoming French Grand Prix, which is set to take place this weekend.

The Spaniard bagged his first win of the season in the Jerez circuit in Spain recently and he is determined to use the momentum and repeat his run at the Le Mans this Sunday.

“I feel happy after my win in Jerez. Now I look forward to racing at Le Mans, a different track compared to Jerez,” he said as quoted from Crash.

“Usually we are affected by the weather, but it’s a circuit I like and where Yamaha got some good results in the past, so I’m very confident of doing a good job there.

“The bike is good right now and after my first podium and win I feel good. I’m not thinking about the championship, I just take it day by day, corner by corner and try to ride the best I can and enjoy every session,” he added.

“If we can find a good set-up I think we will be fighting for the podium again. Hopefully the weather is good but in France you never know what is going to happen. Anyway I’ll do my best whatever the weather will be.”

Lorenzo is currently ranked third on the rider’s chart, having collected 62 points thus far.
