Jorge Lorenzo was not satisfied with his results at Ducati Desmosedici. And, just when things started to get better, Lorenzo suffered some horrific crashes last season. Lorenzo's misery started from Misano where he crashed in the penultimate lap. Though he sustained injuries in his foot, he continued and completed the race.

While racing in Aragon, he was caught in a fiasco in the first corner of the race. He was outcasted by Marquez who charged from the inside. He suffered multiple injuries. He dislocated his toe and aggravated his fracture in right foot.

However, he was brave to get back on his Desmosedici to race in Thailand but suffered a horrible crash. While coming out of the turn-3 in practice session, he lost his control and was tossed off his bike. The intensity of the crash was so high that it stopped the session temporarily.

He later didn't participate in the Thailand GP and in the next three races. However, he returned to race in the ultimate fixture of the season in Valencia.
