In fact, his beginnings in motorcycling came much later than that of his rivals in the road racing championships. His ffrst motorcycle was a Polini when he was 6 years old. He received a small Honda QR as a gift one year later. Unusually, his family didn’t have an excessive interest in bikes - everyone TEAM SUZUKI RACING NEWSaround him was more into ofi-road riding than on track, and most were enthusiastic about other sports. His father Joan, in fact, owns a skating shop in Mallorca, so little Joan grew up surrounded by skateboard decks. It was not until he saw his cousin Joan Perelló, who was in the Stop & Go team in the World Championship, that he became fascinated with When The Passion Was Bornspeed. An admirer of his countryman Rafael Nadal, Joan admitted in an interview that “like Rossi, I do not look up to anyone”. And yet, paradoxically, his first experience of racing at the track arrived at Chicho Lorenzo’s school, where he remained for a year. From there he moved to the Balearic Motorcycling Federation’s school in 2009. There someone discovered that Joan had more to offier than just his enthusiastic smile. It’s also where he met Daniel Vadillo, who advises him and has accompanied him to each race since then. “We saw that he had something difierent,” recalls Dani.The Early YearsJoan then started the adventure of the Bankia Cup in the XL 160 category, in 2011. The Mallorcan won the crown with two races left before the championship came to a permanent close. Then came the MotoGP PreGP 125 Cup, the next step in the arduous climb to the World Championship, and Joan did not hold back, securing another title. In 2012, Joan headed to the Red Bull Rookies Cup, where he completed two seasons: 2013-2014. During the first year of adaptation, the Balearic rider finished ninth in the general standings, while in the second year he finished runner-up after a very close battle with Spaniard Jorge Martín.2020 Winter Issue“The entire team did an incredible job, and I’m just so overjoyed with this championship win”“World Champion?
