uhhh yes, in 2010 he set the record for most points won in a season, and in 2012 he almost matched that.
He beat rossi, stoner, pedro, etc.
This is dumb

I found a sandal
I think it's a sign
Lorenzo is a worthy champion
On a serious note getting more points than Stoner and Pedro and that rather swanky Honda is a "big deal" - if Stoner Pedro and Rossi as well as 'Nick 2006' were all on the Ducati I'm calling him piss weak. But the best bike was the Honda. He got in ahead of Pedro who has been gifted every championship since 2005.
Can you do something about the cows on my roof? Anyhoo off to work!

1 LORENZO Jorge 350 1-1 1-2 4-2 4-1 2-1 4-1 3-NC 5-2 2-1 1-2 2-2 1-2 2-1 1-2 1-2 1-2 2-2 2-NC
First number is starting position, second number is finishing position. 6 wins, 10 seconds, 2 DNFs, one of which was not his own fault.
By this reasoning, there has never been a worthy champion. With the possible exception of Leslie Graham on the AJS Porcupine.

Stoner 2011 - its a different story, when things being equal in a race, he won most of the time, without the Lorenzo crashes, Stoner will still be champion because he had proven to be the fastest rider.
Stoner 2007 - he is still worthy for achieving on a Ducati, even though he has Bridgestone tire advantage.
Rossi 2008 - he is a worthy champion because he did beat Stoner in a very hard duel in plenty of races
Rossi 2009 - he is a worthy champion because he beat Lorenzo overall in a season, Lorenzo's crashes is caused by trying the impossible to beat Rossi. If Lorenzo did not crash and ride within limits, he would have finished second to Rossi in those races. Which means, Rossi is the worthy champion.
Compare all of the above to Lorenzo in 2012, getting his ... whipped in last 8 races in every single race. Thats hardly called a worthy champion.
Or in 2010, riding with no competition when his teammate sufferd a broken leg,...thats hardly a worthy champion.

I am amazed at your simple approach attitude.
Title = worthy champion.
Life is not so simple, you need to be analytical, without having an analytical approach, you will not see the real truth and picture.
Because you lacked some analytical ability, you did not realize Lorenzo is not a worthy champion.

You see, the thing about Lorenzo's title is that he did not face real competition, either his main competitors are injured or has not so capable bike.
For example, last 8 races of 2012, Pedrosa absolutely destroyed him nearly every race, Lorenzo does not have any answer to that at all.

Lorenzo definitely has the luck of a champion, bucket load full of luck.
But he does not have the speed or talent of a real champion.
They say that lightning do not strike twice in the same place. Most elderly people agree with this saying, I too tend to agree with this saying.
However, after Lorenzo won the title again in 2012 due to pure luck, I am not too sure about this saying "Lightning do not strike twice in the same place".... In the case of Lorenzo, lightning certainly strikes twice in the same place, once in 2010 and the second time in 2012....
I am wondering if there will be a third time....

I think the two quotes for the thread are Pete,s fish with the waterproof head and OK Pork Tin.
Truly hilarious comedy genius here sometimes.
Laughed and laughed and laughed.
He didn't get the cows off my roof but there is some off season entertainment in cuckoo troll.
