It is only a week after the extraordinary San Marino Grand Prix, which graced us with a royal battle between Marc Márquez and Fabio Quartararo, that the MotoGP field meets this weekend in the north of Spain near Alcaniz on the MotorLand circuit of Aragón.
It is still crowned by its magnificent second place obtained on the banks of the Adriatic that fabio quartararo arrives in Spain, after having spent a large part of Sunday's race in the lead and having fought with the reigning World Champion Marc Márquez For victory.
According to “El Diablo”, he can use the same fast start strategy to try to expand his record of four podium places obtained so far in his rookie season in Barcelona, in Assen, in Austria and therefore in Misano.
Full of self-confidence after the excellent performance in Misano, he is determined to find himself once again on the podium in Aragón.
“Fighting with Marc in Misano means I'm going to Aragón with great confidence, said Fabio. It showed how good a job we did there, and just five days after getting off the bike in great condition, I have the opportunity to ride again. »
“The long straights don't pose too many problems for us, because we showed at the Red Bull Ring and Misano that as long as we get a good start and put in five good laps at the start, we can be in the fight. »
“The first goal will be to be at the front again, because we need to make sure we have a good start, and then we will do our best, as always. »
Fabio currently occupies seventh position in the provisional general classification with 112 points, behind Valentino Rossi which totals 129, and ahead of Jack Miller with 101.
He has achieved three pole positions so far this season at Jerez, Barcelona and Assen, and has started from the front row of the grid six times in 13 GPs, which is impressive for a rookie in the category. .
Fabio finished twelfth in Aragón in 2016 in Moto3, then eleventh in 2017 in Moto2, then ninth last year, still in Moto2.
