He entered the season as champions under Rossi. Now is fundamentally a chance to grab title Rossi has gone," explained Nicky Hayden, as quoted from Eurosport. "So now the pressure is greater leading to Lorenzo. It is interesting to see how he's going through all this," continued the 2006 world champion. Hayden said Lorenzo could not just play it safe. "I think Lorenzo still have to try and win the race. Four races into the future, I think it is too risky when he began racing with caution, especially by considering the difference in points between the drivers. Thus it is an absolute victory," he finished .
