Valentino Rossi fans seem to like Fabio Quartararo. But the hope of many is that he can beat Marc Márquez soon.
Fabio Quartararo will occupy the saddle of Valentino Rossi from the 2021 MotoGP season.

Many Valentino Rossi fans, however, are calling for calm, since Fabio has not won a Grand Prix so far. When Maverick Viñales debuted at Yamaha, we were already thinking about the arrival of a champion, before having to think again. “ But are we so sure that this will become a phenomenon?
