Fabio Quartararo left the first Sepang tests undefeated for three days. For the same period lived in Losail, only Sunday was to its advantage. The Petronas rider even finished his Monday behind his teammate Franco Morbidelli, while Maverick Viñales was the star, including at Yamaha. But in ten days, the scenario could be different…
Fourth on Monday and finally third in the cumulative ranking of the three days spent in Qatar, fabio quartararo had nothing to be ashamed of his performances on his Yamaha 2020 version. Quite the contrary, even if the Frenchman was the first to fail in the quest for a time of 1'53: " we resolved the issues we identified “, explained the Petronas pilot.
« I am very happy. In my race simulation the pace was very good. But we still have a little room for improvement. We did a few laps at midday and in the afternoon, but we couldn't really attack the times, so the time is very good. We are still quite fast, and we are only two tenths of a second behind the best time of the two in front. »
He finishes : " I think I can improve my attack with just one good lap time. I made a mistake in my fast lap. It was a tire I had already done five laps with. It was pretty good. Usually, attacking the clock is our specialty. But of course we will improve this for the race weekend. » Which will start on Friday March 6!
