After this two-week break during which the future of the reigning world champion has changed somewhat, Johann Zarco is re-focusing again on the Moto2 championship to try to close the 10-point gap that separates him from 'Alex Rins, and why not achieve a third consecutive victory, this time on the Assen circuit.
For this he will be able to count on the sensations he obtained there last year, by winning in front of Tito Rabat, Sam Lowes and Alex Rins.
Johann zarco, 3rd, 106 points: “It will be the first time that we race on Sunday, and so it will be interesting, although the weekend schedule will not change at all. We rode very well last year, but everything will now depend on the feeling we have with the current bike, and to attack as hard as possible, as we did in the last rounds.
The first objective will be, whatever the conditions, to take advantage of Friday to analyze the different types of tires, and know when to use them. This will be important for Saturday, when we will set a time to aim for the first row.
In Barcelona, I was able to be there for the first time in a long time, and I realized that it was a big help.
Regarding Sunday, I hope that we will obtain the same result as during the Catalan Grand Prix. »
