To me, Lorenzo seems a poor fit for the Ducati. His smooth riding style was rewarded by the high cornering speed of the Yamaha and this allowed him to start from the first row most times. On the Ducati, starting from mid-pack is now his norm and that's a place he's never done well from even on a Yamaha. Like you, I hope he can adapt to his new ride and be competitive once more.
