Jean Michel Bayle, through his eclectic track record and career, is one of the legends of French motorcycles. Champion in motocross, brilliant in Grand Prix, he is the only rider who has achieved sporting success in both worlds of motorcycle competition. Now 52 years old, he still gives an informed opinion fueled by a requirement that has never left him. He followed Johann Zarco for a while in a period which was complicated for the now leader of the MotoGP championship after their races. Fabio Quartararo is no stranger to him either…
Jean Michel Bayle also enjoyed the spectacle of a historic podium for French motorcycles Qatar. A ceremony where two Frenchmen sat on the first two steps sealing the end of a MotoGP race which was also the closest in the history of the premier Grand Prix category. There was definitely nothing to throw away in this magnificent Doha Grand Prix. And, the icing on the cake is Johann zarco who settled at the head of the General classification provisional, after two races.
Jean Miche Bayle said what he thought about the recovery of a Johann zarco whom he knew and worked with at a time in his career which was much more delicate. The double Moto2 World Champion took his destiny in hand and believed in himself to get there under the leadership of Ducati. JMB took note of this and total respect for his compatriot.
Jean Miche Bayle: “Fabio has shown that he can now win at any time”
Et fabio quartararo ? He is not unknown to bayle. And the latter saw in him something different in Doha which bodes well for the future… On speedweek, he says thus: “ In 2015 I saw something special in Fabio's eyes. It was something you felt a little bit about. After that, it was a chaotic journey through the categories,” begins Bayle, ending thus: “even if Fabio is still young, this time in Doha, he showed that he can now win at any time. Last year he only won when it was easy ».
An important nuance that we look forward to verifying when Marc Marquez will be back at his best. We are also expecting him for the next meeting in Portimao.
