These are two drivers who will have to be watched closely on the Red Bull Ring track in the event that they end up together on the same trajectory. Between Pol Espargaró and Johann Zarco, there is indeed a tension born from the collision deplored last weekend in Brno. A Sunday in the Czech Republic where Pol Espargaró fell from his KTM when he encountered the Ducati GP19 of Johann Zarco at the apex, from which he had strayed. The officials judged the incident by sanctioning the Frenchman who handled his penalty well. But between the two men nothing is settled…
However, Johann zarco went to meet Pol Espargaro to burst the abscess. How did this interview go? It’s the Frenchman who tells it… “ I met him Thursday in the parking lot. I got out of my car and went to him to speak clearly face to face and tell him I was sorry for what happened. He didn't want to accept my apology. I told him that I had not come to ask him to apologize but only to tell him that I was sorry for the situation and that, clearly, my primary objective was not to make anyone fall. ».
“I said at least we talked face to face”
« But he's sure I did it on purpose because I knew I couldn't pass and I tried to push him » the Frenchman finishes. “ I told him no and that for me, if he expanded, the logic is that I would try to pass because there was room. For him, there was no room since we touched each other. I said at least we talked face to face even if we didn't agree. At least it's done. » But not sure that this is all for Pol Espargaro...
