fabio quartararo is the youngest in the new MotoGP field. He is not 20 years old and, as noted Valentino Rossi who is 40, the Frenchman could be his son. So many observations which made the compatriot a little more aware of Johann zarco of the path he had just traveled until this press conference for a Qatar Grand Prix which will open the 2019 hostilities. As a result, he also remembers…

fabio quartararo, in his career, has so far only won one World Championship victory, obtained in Moto2 last year. Although very young, he has already gained a good amount of experience, but he has not yet managed to make the final leap forward to present himself as a regular candidate for a title. Despite this, his talent attracted the attention of Yamaha and the new Petronas team. An interest that he rewarded with dazzling tests in Qatar, punctuated by an absolute second time. Would the Nice driver already be ready to give his opponents a hard time? We will know very quickly...

During the opening conference of the 2019 season, fabio quartararo said: " For me, it's impressive to be here with all these drivers, but I will try to maintain maximum concentration for this first weekend of the year. We have done excellent testing. My goal is to have fun without thinking too much about the result. Right now I'm focusing on understanding motorcycling. I want to think race by race. For the moment, I am still focused on learning motorcycling. We did 3 days of testing, but when we get to circuits like Argentina or Austin, we will only have 4 sessions of 40 minutes. We will therefore need to adapt more quickly to his circuits, but for the moment I remain focused race by race. We had 3 days, which is really positive, and we will think about Argentina and the next races in the future "

The French pilot then added: “ MotoGP is a passion, a way of life. I've been riding since I was 5 years old and I'm now in MotoGP. For me, it's a dream come true. I remember waiting 2 hours outside Valentino Hospitality before I could take my photo with him when I was little. And now I find myself running with him and I'm really happy. I think the fans are really happy to watch MotoGP races because it's more impressive and more attractive every year. So yes, we will definitely have fun "
