Franco Morbidelli uses his time in domestic quarantine for training and is also supposed to learn to play instruments.
After the state of emergency in the fight against Coronavirus reigns in Europe, racers are also nailed down at home. This is especially true for Italian motorcyclists, as it is their country that is the hotbed of the virus in Europe. In their own way, everyone spends their free time not forgetting about training.
"It simply came to our notice then. The only exceptions are really urgent tasks such as visiting shops to buy the essentials, ”said the Petronas racer about the situation in Italy.
"It has been like this since last Monday, more than a week, and I hope that the situation will improve as soon as possible. I train like that in the only possible way - at home. Despite the situation, it is necessary to stay in good shape. I can run within the confines of my home. Of course, this is not the same as training in the gym. ”
In addition to maintaining form, the Italian in these times also spent a short time learning to play instruments.
"It's not easy. I still have a lot to practice. Maybe at the end of this situation I will be able to play the organ and the cajon. ”
It also calls on all people to be patient and calm in these moments and to follow the instructions of the competent authorities. Despite the fact that the MotoGP class racers did not compete in Qatar, he closely followed the events in the lower two classes, especially the racers of the Petronas team, on television screens.
“I watched the races in Qatar. John (McPhee) did very well in second place in the Moto 3 class. The other three also performed well. This time I was able to cheer for them without the pressure of the race. But these were mixed feelings, as we should be there too.
