Quartararo has not done much winning of late, in fact, his ꦍlast MotoGP victory came at the 2022 German Grand Prix at Sachsenring.

Since then Quartararo ⛎has stepped on the podium just six times as Yamaha have suffered a fall down the pecking order similar to Honda.

• Martin: “I hope the MotoGP title won’t be deci🍸ded ꦕin an office”

But 𒊎even when it was clear that Yamaha could not challenge, Quartararo’s mindset remained the same, which was that of someone who wanted to win.

“As a person I’m a winner,” s🍃aid Quartararo when speaking on the MotoGP.com podcast. “I don’t want to just give up because this is something I will never do. 

“Even if we’re in a situation where we know we can🐎not fight for the victory, I always believe that I have to fight for the victory. Maybe I will no🥀t.”

That♔ said, Quartararo 🐽also admitted that the beginning of this season resulted in him losing the element of fun.

Unable to consistently challenge at the front, especially when it came🌳 to qualifying, Quar💖tararo admitted he was angered even after race weekends ended.

Quartararo added: “The first part of the se⛎ason I never accepted the position I was ending [up in]. This was making me super angry even after the GP. 

“I was home, disappointed and not enjoying life. But since mid-season I said ‘okay, whatever th꧃e result is we have to enjoy it and as soon as the races finish switch off’. Fro♕m February to July I was not enjoying it.”
