Malaysian Grand Prix sparks a mixture of enthusiasm and curiosity in the paddock. The reactions are pouring in, and among the notable voices, that of
Carlo Pernatthe pilots' manager, stands out. In an interview with MOW Mag, Pernat highlighted the courage of
Iannone by accepting this monumental challenge.

« We have Ducati to thank and, once again, Valentino Rossi. If he didn't think about it, who would? move. And then, we also have to thank Andrea, who had the guts to say yes.You really have to have courage becauseafter five yearswithout testing and even without sitting on the bike for fun, going on a MotoGP bike exposes you to something that can also be traumatic “, he declared, highlighting the scale of the challenge thatAndrea Iannone is about to take up.

Andrea Iannone: « Andrea Iannone, this is a great message about the importance of positive rebellion »

The return comes after years of turmoil for the Italian driver, who was suspended following a positive doping test. Pernat does not hide his happiness for
Iannonehighlighting the trials he went through. “ I'm really happy for him : this guy has been through hell.

Taking away his motorcycles and the possibility of running for all that time was inhumane. »

Returning to the world stage, even as a substitute,
Iannone sends a strong message. “
Coming back, even just as a substitute, but precisely at Sepang and on a Valentino Rossi bikeI'm not saying it's revenge, because nothing will be real revenge, but it's a great message about the importance of positive rebellion: the one which does not generate defeat but a future. »
