Fabio Quartararo may have abandoned the MotoGP French GP, but until the incident that determined the outcome, he had a good pace, fighting in the top ten – which he has only achieved once this year.
It is in this context that the Monster Energy Yamaha rider now faces the Catalan GP… arriving in Barcelona with news on the Yamaha YZR-M1, as he told:
– After the private test in Mugello, we established a version of the aerodynamics that we will try to use here this weekend. I am interested to see how it will be. It is certain that we will do our best, as always.
With motivation high, Quartararo arrives in Barcelona convinced that he has made progress, aiming to continue the good moment he had in France: ‘It is a GP sponsored by Monster Energy, so the team is fully motivated. Barcelona is also one of my favorite circuits – I have had some very good races here, especially in 2022. We made progress with the setup in Le Mans, so let’s see if we can achieve some good results this weekend‘.
In his five previous seasons in MotoGP, Quartararo obtained two victories and a podium in Barcelona, being at that same circuit that he won for the first time in a world championship in 2018 when he was in Moto2.
