Since the start of the season, fabio quartararo seems changed. More composed, more lethal and more flamboyant than ever. Everyone agrees: French has everything of a great champion. This murky sentence is actually quite difficult to understand, don't you think? Decryption.

A champion behaves like this before he is. To be the best, you simply have to act like a boss. Do not blush in the face of adversity, do not consider yourself less good than the competition, however strong they may be.

You will have understood: Everything is played in the head. Since the start, Fabio's mentality seems sharper than ever, showing no sign of letting up in difficult moments. Many legends agree that everything is built on the details and the accumulation of them.

Jerez 2021 is " big detail », as another French legend would have fun saying. Hit in the arm, The Devil » takes his courage in both hands and gives everything to reach the finish. No matter the suffering. It is in these moments that the soul of a champion is cultivated, not necessarily in victories.

At only 22 years old, this feat is astonishing. But that's not all ! We must also mention this pure speed, borrowed from the greatest of this sport. Performance in qualifying is essential, because it gives a huge psychological advantage, more than material in fact.

Five times, consecutively please, at the time of writing, Fabio inflicted a punishment on the entire grid on Saturday. This ability is the mark of a champion.

If we widen the field of vision, other clues leave no doubt as to the potential of the Frenchie. His performance after the tragic disappearance of Jason dupasquier, a few weeks ago Mugello, says a lot.

A sensational victory, driven by the emotion of pure and honest thought. The tribute, once the checkered flag fell, was all the more beautiful. These little moments, here and there, bear witness to the birth of something great.

Warning ! Let's not jinx Quarta'. Being a champion does not necessarily mean success. Sometimes, the mathematical coldness of this world catches up with us, like in 2020. Joan Mir, a very good driver incidentally, won the overall with a single victory, without making any additional escapades.

Randy Mamola, four-time vice-world champion, had everything of a giant. How to combine art and style? The enigma of our time. Only fate knows the answer. But by continuing on this path, by freeing himself from codes and by being proud, Fabio has every chance of making his mark in the history of his sport.

And that’s all we wish for him!
