Fabio Quartararo has indicated his career direction for the next two years and it is a confirmation of the link with Yamaha until 2024. This validated, the transfer market will now fill its empty boxes and there is strong fear that 'in this game of musical chairs, there are many pilots who end up fanny. It would therefore perhaps be urgent to decide quickly. What does Joan Mir think?

Joan mir arrives in Catalonia with the intention of redeeming himself after the two successive abandonments due to falls experienced on the handlebars of his Suzuki at Le Mans and Mugello. And for good reason: not only will it be a question of ending this story well with the Hamamatsu firm, still marked by a World Champion title in 2020, but also, we must show that we are the best opportunity of success in a transfer market which presents other good drivers to take…

One of them, fabio quartararo, is out of the game. His former teammate from the days of Moto3 in Leopard colors comments which is not a surprise: “ I think everyone more or less expected this renewal, it's not something new, at least for me. I knew Fabio was happy and Yamaha too, of course they have problems, like everyone else. But they are on the podium. Fabio deserves it ».

And what concerns him? Rumor insists on putting him at home Honda Repsol... " Honestly, I do not know. I would like to have news soon, but I don't know when it will be » responds on GP One the teammate of a alex rins who is just as expectant… “ I am completely transparent with you. No one wants to explain more than me where I will be. I wish I had certainty about where I would be, but I don't. ". Then he blurted out: “ Honda? I don't want to answer that, because then problems arise ».

Joan Mir: “at Suzuki, They are doing everything to try to end the season in the best possible way"

Joan mir ends with the bad impression left by Suzuki since the announcement of the withdrawal of the brand from MotoGP. He wants to convince that this conjunction of bad results with bad news is specious: “ from the outside I understand that it looks like that, I would also think so from the outside, but when you experience it from the inside you realize that this is not the first time that I have problems outside of the bike and I have to deal with them as a rider. It's a bit day to day, maybe you have personal problems and then you have to give 100% on the bike, it's our job as riders to do that. I think the problem we have is technical, we need to solve it, and that's where the team must motivate each other and be united ».

« I know there is a lot of potential in this bike, I just feel like this year we haven't been able to show the potential of this bike yet » he said again. “ This is something that makes me very angry, because if there is potential and we have a good team and a good package, why are the results not coming out? Patience and hard work will make the difference, we are not far in the championship yet, we can change things around, but each passing race makes things more difficult ».

However : " Suzuki has stopped development for 2023, not this year. It's clear. We have some new things to evaluate in Monday's test. They are doing everything to try to finish the season in the best way possible. From the outside it may look different, but the reality is that they work. At the end of the year they will close everything, but now they are working ».
