It was the last stage of this long procession imposed on Johann Zarco since he set foot on the Red Bull Ring again. Derided by certain drivers following his accident with Franco Morbidelli, he was identified as the person responsible for the collision which so frightened Valentino Rossi. And which could also have been serious for Maverick Viñales whom we hardly heard. A fact which left the Frenchman with a damaged scaphoid which he had to have operated on. He therefore had to, in this sensitive and delicate period, go to meet the doctors to obtain their release...
An exam that he only had to take this Friday, since his operation took place on Thursday. However, you need 48 hours of rest before going to the medical fitness examination. Coming out of a trying media campaign which did its job since he was punished a start at his next Grand Prix from the pit lane, Johann zarco feared that his black streak would continue in front of the doctors.
But the latter gave their discharge, so that he will be able to live out the epilogue of this Austrian cabal while serving his sentence this Sunday. Then it will be time to move on.
