The clouds were one of the actors of the last Malaysian Grand Prix but Zarco is still on his. On the Sepang track, he retained his Moto2 world title, a first in the category but also unprecedented in Grand Prix for a French rider. A performance whose aura has gone beyond the world of motorcycles to reach the general media and even up to the government. But let it be said, the 26-year-old from Cannes will not keep this fame for himself.
From a discreet or even closed approach, zarco is above all an enthusiast totally devoted to motorcycles, seeking perfection at every moment to simply be worthy of his vocation. A humility which combines with a shared life in the paddock during meetings and which bursts into full light when we attack this universe. Remember his anger during a press conference in which the atmosphere was weighed down by the death of Salom.
Now he is once again on top of the world. But at a higher altitude perhaps than last time. Because he groomed the statistics to tread the ground of History. For what feeling? “ It is a source of pride and I hope that this second world title will give impetus to the passion for motorcycling in France so that it can develop even further. I had already noticed an evolution last year, but I hope that we will take another step forward this time ».
He specifies : " we all want the passion for motorcycling to grow, for more people to watch the races on television. This is also why I opened a driving school with Laurent Fellon and where I spend a lot of time between Grands Prix. I would like to be an example for future French pilots. And I hope that this second title will help ».
