DAINESE AMBASSADORS JORGE LORENZO AND ANGEL NIETO THRILLED BY ISLE OF MAN TT RACES EXPERIENCE



Spanish motorcycling stars Jorge Lorenzo and Angel Nieto, ambassadors for TT Races Safety Partner Dainese, visited the Isle of Man for the 2010 TT Races.

The two completed a lap of the iconic mountain course before watching the Dainese Senior TT from a private garden on Bray Hill. Current TT star Guy Martin, also a Dainese ambassador, was involved in a high speed accident at Ballagarey but fortunately was not seriously injured and is recovering in hospital.

Lorenzo, currently leading the Moto GP championship, commented:

“What an amazing experience. Now i understand why people enjoy the experience of riding at the TT. I only did one lap and I would definitely like some more practice.. I was able to make a few wheelies and wave a lot to the crowd - there seem to be so many people here. It was a very very good experience.

He continued: “I have read all about the TT in magazine and have seen TV programmes - but nothing can prepare you for the real experience.”

Thirteen time World Champion Angel Nieto, who competed in the TT in 1968 but did not complete a lap, commented:

“It was a great honour to come back to such a great and historic place as a guest of Dainese. I have strong memories from my time here a long time ago and it is great to come back and see the TT so healthy.

He continued: “We were all so concerned for Guy - It is a miracle that we here good news. It was great to show Jorge the TT and I'm glad he enjoyed so much. For us both it was a very special experience.
