The coming weekend will be the moment when MotoGP will have chosen Sarthe as its home. This fifth round of the Grand Prix calendar will take place on French soil and this year will be a little special. Because the one who is currently second in the championship will breathe the air of the country there, so that many of his compatriots will come to support him and expect the feat from him!
Johann zarco promises to be there. Which is good because the Yamaha loves the Bugatti…
At Le Mans, there will also be a good part of the team from Paddock-GP, starting Monday.
They will try to make you experience the event as best as possible!
