The MotoGP Indian GP marked Franco Morbidelli’s return to top ten results, with a seventh place in the main race. This momentum is what the Monster Energy Yamaha man wants to maintain at his team’s home in the Japanese GP.
The Italian made it clear that the goal is to do even better than last weekend: ‘After a positive end for the team at the Indian GP, we have arrived in Japan. It’s Yamaha’s home GP, so we want to try to improve on the results we achieved last week‘.
Morbidelli will leave Yamaha at the end of the season, and he revealed that he had the chance to say goodbye to the members of the Japanese structure: ‘Before we hit the track, I visited the Yamaha Motor Company headquarters in Iwata to bid farewell to the Yamaha employees, as this is my last year with them. It was a pleasant visit and I will try to make the most of this competition weekend‘.
