If there is one thing that cannot be taken away from Loris Baz, it is his dexterity in getting out of the pitfalls. At the end of his MotoGP period, which was not the easiest, we feared for the continuation of the events reserved for the former Kawasaki official in Superbike. It is precisely to these first loves that he returned to better relaunch himself and position himself as a solid link in the Yamaha chain. From WSBK, he is eyeing what is happening in MotoGP, and the situations of Zarco and Quartararo do not leave him indifferent. Even less so for the first mentioned as Loris was an Avintia Ducati rider…
The signing of the contract is promised as a formality so much so that we can take for granted the fact that Johann zarco will be an Avintia Ducati rider in 2020. A team that is not unknown for a Loris Baz in fact able to deliver an informed opinion on this destiny… “ I wouldn't want to be in his place » begins the tricolor. “ Having seen everything that happened last year. Johann is a very good boy, he thinks differently from many other drivers. »
« I think he was wrong to leave an official team like KTM, especially when he was starting to understand. I think if he had continued, he would have quickly reached his teammate's level. I hope he gets back into a good position quickly, because he remains a very talented driver. » We will remember that Loris also occasionally drove the RC16…
The other French driver in the category is called Fabio Quartararo. A very different fate and therefore an opinion which is no less different: “ two years ago everyone said he should give up, now everyone sees the talent he is » insists Loris on GP One. " I don't like the anti Márquez label, but he had an incredible season, he is very good in MotoGP and he works hard »
He adds : " I know his manager well, since he was also mine. It has certainly helped him make good choices in recent years, I hope he stays at this level to make the championship more interesting. » A championship that Loris Baz do not regret : " I don't wake up in the morning thinking about MotoGP. But I think I deserved another season on a good level bike, because I think my last season was positive. I wish I could have shown more. If I want to come back to MotoGP one day, I will do it in the right conditions, which means winning in Superbike. »
