Angel Grandson: “This year we took the triplet�26 Tuesdays October 2010
plo of which the dreams are fulfilled. Because “Little angelâ€? always wanted to run in motorcycle, it obtained and it, becoming few years in the king of the small piston displacements. The first years were not easy, but thanks to his Incaable tenacity, “the one follows that it obtains itâ€?, ended up dazzling to the world when obtaining 13 world-wide championships (12+1 as he by superstition says) between 1969 and 1984. Today, Grandson continues being the Spanish pilot more laureate and an international reference for the young people. Admirer of Valentino Rossi, bet by the triplet of Lorenzo, ElĂas and Márquez to end of season. And he is that the Spanish motociclismo lives one on its better moments with 23 national pilots disputing the championship, seven of them in highest.
The native sportsmen are fashionable and in the heat of gust of wind. Also in motorcycles, where three Spaniards occupy to day of today the first position in the classification and other four have podio. There will be triplet?
More likely. As much Jorge Lorenzo (Motorcycle GP) as Toni ElĂas (Moto2) and Marc Márquez (125cc) are very strong and I believe that they are the candidates to secure the title of champion of the world in his respective categories to end of season. What makes lack to gain a World-wide one? Coverall, a good equipment, good technicians and abrir gas. In what they look like and they differentiate Jorge Lorenzo and Dani Pedrosa? Jorge Lorenzo (271 points - Yamaha) has talent and is rapidĂsimo. Dani Pedrosa (208 points - Honda) has talent and is very technician. It admires especially to Valentino Rossi, what has he that does not have other pilots? Yes, I admire Doctor Rossi. He has obtained who the motociclismo is known throughout the world and thanks to him this sport has been able abrir itself to all. He will manage to beat his 12+1 championships of the motociclismo world? It has it complicated, need four titles - Italian pilot Valentino Rossi has gained until the moment nine world-wide titles in four different categories, the unique one in history in lograrlo- and is going to go a little fit. But he would not matter to me. I admire to him. Become friendly in the track? In the track there are no friendly, in paddock yes. How are lived the races from paddock and like commentator of television? I enjoy each race to the maximum and like commentator television me the brilliant step. Our objective is to make it every day tuna more, thanks by all means to the equipment of Spanish Television. What moment of your more than 20 years of race you remember with more emotion? I have many moments. For example, in 1972 in Montjuic when I both gained World-wide (50cc and 125cc) the same day; in 1971 in Madrid, in the circuit of the Jarama, when I lost the World-wide one of 50cc after a fall and gained the one of 125cc; and at the end of my race when he gained almost all the Sundays - in years 82, 83 and 84 Grandson obtained his three last Championships of World winning 6 of the 12 races in 1982, 6 of 11 in 1983 and 6 of 8 in 1984-. Why that odd habit to number 13? I do not want it nor to see. Throughout my race several circumstances occurred: a day 13 in Benidorm I had the most laborious accident for me; and in the last championship in the Great Prize of San Marino of 1984 in the Italian circuit of Mugello - with the World-wide one in the hands I fell and they had to me to operate, and thus I remained with the 12+1 titles. How were his first years in the world of the two wheels? The first years were difficult. It did not have what there is today, beginning to sleep six months in a one cellar fruterĂa. From where its liking comes to him? Ever since I have reason use always I have liked the motorcycles. They have changed to much the races, the motorcycles, the circuits…? Very many. Luckyly, every day improvement more in security. If the view could throw back, with whom it would like to run? With Valentino Rossi. Who thinks that he is the best pilot of history? He is very complicated, by the technical changes that have had in all these years, to only say one. His 63 years it follows the foot of the tube, how feels to the being the alive image of this sport? I am contented of the present moment that lives the Spanish motociclismo. On the other hand, I am thankful for the respect and the affection that to me people have. Of not to have been motorcyclist, what it would have liked to be? Good, playboy (laughter). I have never thought about another thing that is not motorcycles. What other likings has? I like to ski and to sail, but they are likings that I cannot practice much because I am almost all along traveling. He is proud of which their children and their nephew have followed their steps? I am proud of them like good people that they are. Like pilots, I believe that they have not done it badly. It goes habitually in motorcycle? From time to time, but very slowly. I have already run enough where one is due to do, that is in the circuits. Future what augurs to him to the competition and the Spanish motociclismo? I believe that a phenomenal work with the quarry has become. We are the envy of the world, and if we followed thus we will have a promising future. This year we took the triplet!
