Cal Crutchlow was back in the paddock this Friday to compete for Franco Morbidelli in the Styrian Grand Prix. In Spielberg, the Brit spoke about the situation of Maverick Viñales, who will leave Yamaha at the end of the season.
“When I look at Maverick Viñales he is on par with Marc Marquez in terms of speed and talent, there is no one faster in the championship. I think he could win the World Cup with his eyes closed if he put all the pieces together. I enjoy working with Maverick, he’s good for me because I’m older and more experienced. In general, he’s a good person, if I tell him this or that part is better, he immediately believes. That’s what he needs while other drivers do things differently. That makes him quick, “he said at the beginning and then left a wish for his Yamaha team-mate:
– I enjoy working with him and I hope he can end the season well because he, Yamaha and the team deserve it.
