It was one of the most eventful MotoGP seasons. It was on the threshold of becoming one of the best seasons as well. Just before it was riddled with that scarring controversy. The flaming controversy aside, the MotoGP 2015 turned out to be quite a thrilling one. Jorge Lorenzo went on to become a three times MotoGP World Champion with his resounding victory; incidentally his seventh of the season.
At the final race of the 2015 season in Valencia, the Yamaha rider was at his best. He began from pole after setting a new lap record in qualifying, and then led the entire race despite facing fierce competition from Marc Marquez and Dani Pedrosa towards the ending stages of the final lap. In spite of the overwhelming pressure, Lorenzo went on to seal his remarkable victory. A victory which was so stunning that it will be remembered for quite some time to come. “The rear tyre was destroyed. To be honest I didn’t see anything on the straight on every lap, I didn’t see the pit wall board, how many laps there were left. I just tried to focus myself on going as fast as possible. I just kept my concentration and prayed I could finish the race. I’m very proud to have this world title for Spain,” said a visibly relieved Lorenzo to the press after his outstanding victory.
