He realized that his journey was not too brilliant, but this Spaniard called it all to be sincere and hard work. There are many racers in the world, here today, who won more than I have. But I gave everything I have. I worked very hard, Open Aleix Espargaro quoted from Crash on Friday, May 24. Often, I feel like I don't have talent like other racers. But with hard work I reached a high level. The last two or three seasons are so amazing. I want to retire as a racer with a good feeling, he continued his retirement announcement.

In the emotion decision to hang up the helmet, Espargaro still had time to joke. He even hopes that the riders can let him win in the Catalunya MotoGP as a prize. "This is not an easy week. I feel like jumping into a very strange space, but I am happy. Hopefully another racer, as a prize, can allow me to win this weekend," he said.
