Valencia MotoGP: Fabio Quartararo ‘all in’ but says it’s good ‘to not care’ about championship picture
Quart♔araro is attempting to win his second MotoGP title in succession, however, the Yamaha rider needs to overhaul a massive 23-point🌞 deficit in order to do so.
Due to 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Francesco Bagnaia holding a 7-to-3 advantage in terms of wins, Quartararo has to o♓utscore the Italian by 24 points, meaning victory is the only result that will give hi♕m a chance.
With that in mind, Quartararo said: "The goal is clear! I only have one goal in the head and I have nothing to lose,” when speak𒆙ing in the pre-event press conference.▨
"I will do my best to do it and fight for the win. Of course, it’s not the best situatio♈n to fight for the championship but it’s a good situation to not care at all. Whatever happens it will be a tough season but a good one. It’s al൲l in!"
Bagnaia ‘clearly’ Quartararo’s main MotoGP contenders despite early mistakes
Although Quartararo held a 91-point advantage of Bagnaia prior to Assen, the Yamaha rider always considered the Italian his biggest threat despite 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Aleix Espargaro never being ꦍmore than 40 points behind him.
Asked about when he thought Bagnaia could make a run at closing his lead, Quartararo added: "I think quite early in the seꦏason even before Silverstone, or just after Silverstone.
"Aleix was much closer to me but you could see cle☂arly that he was going super fast and I knew he was the one that would really fight for the championship. Sometimes I wanted to push too much and I did too many mistakes."
While this weekend’s race holds the most importance to Quartararo at present, the reigning champion couldn’t help but mention Tuesday’s post-sea𒐪son test after hearing ‘good news’ regarding the development of the M1🌜.
An𝄹 improved pacꦜkage was already on show at the Misano test a couple of months ago, however, more speed is seemingly on the way for the Frenchman.
"Of course, I’m really looking forward to Tuesday because I heard some good news," said Quartararo. "But the priority is Sunday and to enjoy that race. It will be super important and so m🌺y priority is🉐 Friday, Saturday and Sunday."
