It was a great afternoon for the French colors in MotoGP which took place in Germany with a Fabio Quartararo not only impregnable on the Sachsenring track, but also with an intractable Johann Zarco in a Ducati clan which nevertheless considers him to be negligible quantity. However, it is the latter who is now the highest ranked driver of the Italian brand in the championship, 61 points behind since his new third place. In the middle, we find Aleix Espargaró who did the best he could with his Aprilia but who is gradually letting go. Here he is now 34 lengths behind the official Yamaha, a brand which has not been seen in Saxony since 2009 and a certain Valentino Rossi…

The big loser of this half of the season, since we have experienced the tenth stage of the twenty listed on the calendar, is a Pecco Bagnaia who fell after four laps, trying to keep contact with the future winner. We will wait for the analyzes of the box Ducati who immediately rolled his eyes at a rear tire Michelin having turned on itself according to the first comments. But the result is there: it is a new abandonment for the one who had flown through the days of Friday and Saturday. It is perhaps even one failure too many, since here he is relegated to sixth place in the provisional general classification with a liability of 91 points. A hole. The two pilots in red are at the same point in this regard, since Jack Miller, third this Sunday, came back to match his box companion.

As we pass, we find right in front of them a Brad Binder stubborn with his rebellious KTM. The South African returns, through self-sacrifice and consistency, to the top 5. The fourth is a Enea Bastianini whose performance curve since the French Grand Prix is ​​exactly opposite to that of Johann zarco. Thus, while the Italian was experiencing the pangs of abandonment and the runners-up after his victory at Le Mans, which marked his third of the year, the Pramac tricolor presented like a countdown to a rocket launch. Judge for yourself: fifth, fourth, third and, this Sunday, second, thus giving our colors their third Grand Prix double. There was Doha in 2021, then Portugal this year and therefore Germany 2022.

Next weekend we will already be in Assen. All that is missing is the 1 in Cannes, which Ducati never imagined dressing in red. However, it is he who is this evening the leader of the Borgo Panigale clan who cannot deny the rise in power of Luca marini as well as Fabio DiGiannantonio...

The fact remains that having two French people in the first three of the championship is a satisfaction that delights in... Since we are talking about the tricolors, we will not forget that the team Tech3 saw his two drivers enter the points, Raul fernandez finishing twelfth and Remy gardner fifteenth on the Sachsenring.
