Jerez could be the day. It was: 22 consecutive victories, equaled Honda record. A company made of brilliant ideas and disappointments, of discoveries and rethinking
On the Gazzetta last week we had the daring to announce that in the Spanish Grand Prix in Jerez the Ducati could have equal a record only a few years ago deemed unapproachable: that of the 22 consecutive great prizes won by Honda. “Sunday can be the day. It must be”, he had written. The hazard-hazard was big, the belief-given by the previous ones-that any of the desmo would score it was even more. And here is. That primacy seemed really lunar, when you went to carefully concern him. It was the 1997 and 1998 seasons, those of Mick Doohan. And I didn’t even understand how much he was, to have the merits of that thread, since the feeling was that any bike had put him under his butt he would have made him first under the flag. And how significant it was instead the merit of the NSR500.
