The scars left by Lorenzo's Ducati flirtation
By offering his services (back) to Ducati, Jorge Lorenzo triggered a ripple effect in the MotoGP paddock that has included Jack Miller and Andrea Dovizioso being left with a sour taste regarding their own futures
In any relationship, the fact that one party might have enjoyed a period of flirtation with a third party is always liable to cause long term damage that can affect levels of trust.
The ripple effect can be felt even further if the third party is themselves in a relationship with a significant other, turning the whole thing into a tangled web.
