Fabio Quartararo has definitely not let go of the pressure on Yamaha since the festivities in honor of his first world title were concluded. In an interview with Marca, he renews his demands, confirms his doubts and the fact that he will only continue with the Iwata brand if it gives him the certainty of having the weapons to retain his world title. Because the Frenchman has no intention of stopping there. He will not sacrifice his talent in the name of loyalty poorly rewarded by a manufacturer who must convince not only technically but also in his commitment. And that's quite new.

fabio quartararo put pressure on Yamaha with a view to a 2022 season which is already on the doorstep of MotoGP. In the space-time of this paddock, the Sepang tests in February are already tomorrow, and as soon as they are launched, the major maneuvers for 2023 will be launched. On this level, the new World Champion has already opened the file and those responsible for Iwata must be attentive to his follow-up, otherwise they risk seeing their spearhead escape to the competition.

In case they relaxed, the Frenchman assured them of his full attention. On Radio Brand, he once again hammers home this message which does not tolerate ambiguity: “ I am aware of having achieved my biggest dream, so now we have to start other dreams and on another level ", did he declare. “ In my life I want to win again, so we have to keep working and fighting like we did this year ».

Fabio Quartararo: “ I'm not saying that if they don't bring certain things, I won't renew, but...« 

Once the main idea is defined, he sets out his conditions: “ I asked for a number of things for next year's bike which are necessary if we really want to win again. I'm not saying that if they don't bring them, I won't renew. But it's something I want to see, if they really want to win and renew with me. We will wait a little longer before making decisions ».

In this development, we note that the claim is certainly technical, but not only that. There is also some doubt about the motivation among Yamaha who must apparently persuade of his desire to “ Really " win and renew with the driver. More than the definition of a road map, it is a general mobilization that fabio quartararo plastered on the walls of Yamaha .
