Jorge Lorenzo vs Juan Olive: the power of YouTube (w/video)

Jorge Lorenzo changed his aggressive riding tatics when he was disqualifed from the Malaysian GP in 2005 after what he did to Alex De Angelis during the 250cc GP round at Motegi.
The injuries he sustained in his rookie year in MotoGP further changed his opinion on how to ride and he has become an advocate for safe and perfect overtakes, like his rival Dani Pedrosa.

However nothing disappears from the memory of racing fans, and thanks to the power of the web and YouTube, and you can see a 10-year old ‘Por Fuera,’ who will later become the four time world champion we know today, during the 1997 Copa Aprilia (50cc) at Jerez at the Ducados corner, now renamed Lorenzo’s corner, t-bone fellow rider Juan Olive and later say ‘it wasn’t very correct, but this is racing.
