Sacred MotoGP world champion three weeks ago, the French rider ended his season badly, letting his rivals shine. This the i


French prodigy Fabio Quartararo has been MotoGP world champion for three weeks now.

At only 22 years old, he may have left to reign for a long time in the premier class of speed bikes and he could quietly savor this feat.

Except that the Nice pilot already has his head turned towards the next season in 2022 and it seems that this is starting to prevent him from sleeping.

Because the Niçois, crowned at two Grands Prix at the end, finished the season in a fishtail.

On November 7 in Portugal, a fall forced him to retire with 5 laps to go.

This Sunday in Spain, his record was hardly more brilliant.

Fabio Quartararo took only fifth place in a race won by his most serious rival, the Italian Francesco Bagnaia.

Suddenly, Quartararo did well to secure his title before the end of the season because no one knows what could have happened next.

And all is not for lack of a declining concentration on the part of the world champion.

Zarco is happy

He seems more worried about the capabilities of his Yamaha motorcycle compared to those of the Ducati de Bagnaia. He has already made no secret of this concern when he thinks of 2022: “Everyone says it is not a circuit for Ducati here in Valencia but they did a treble in qualifying and another in the race. They have really taken a big step forward, ”worries the Niçois. He continues: “It obviously worries me for next year. But it's something I want to keep in the back of my mind for now. Yamaha knows what we need for next year. We are not in full confidence but we are the world champions for this year. "

Ducati, who is doing well, does the business of the other Frenchman on the circuit even if he is not an official rider of the Italian brand.

But Johann Zarco, sixth in the Valencia GP, riders an Italian motorcycle and has finished his season well.

He also intends to play his luck in 2022: “I'm happy with the level I have at the end of the season, in terms of speed and technique, which I had lost since Silverstone.

I'm back now.

It's really positive to end with this good feeling and know that there is a lot of potential to use for the future.
