The anger of Chicho Lorenzo, the estranged father of Jorge Lorenzo - “no one has ever thanked me”

Chicho Lorenzo’s motorcycle racing school in Majorca, Spain, is where his son learned the skills which would mould him into a three-time MotoGP champion.
It is a🎃lso where his relationship with his notoriously tough father turned sour.
Chicho Lorenzo described his current bond with h𒀰is son “no𒀰n-existent” in a new interview with Diario de Mallorca.
Chicho is the man behind the success of his son, Joan Mir, Augusto Fernandez and Izan Guevara - but insists his con🉐tribution has been disregarded.
"I won the challenge of proving to my son that 🌳I could breed other champions,” he said.

“I was a key player in the sporting careers of the four Majorcan motorcycle world champions. I put the fi🔯rst step within the reach of any family, and without a first step there is no second.&n🐻bsp;
“No one, however, has ever thanked me. They have forgotten the importance in their careers of a very hu💜💖mble school that allowed them to start."
Jorge Lorenzo has openly discussed his tough upbringing at the hands of his father. Last year he described him as "like a kind ♏of Hitler” in an int꧅erview with Antena3.
