The French words at the end of the tests
March 12, 2023
After a very difficult first day, the smile has returned to his face Fabio Quartararo: “A big step forward has been taken. In fact, we have returned to the 2022 package, al old set up and it worked very well. We have lost something in the feeling, but I had never done 1’38”3 in Portimao as I managed to do in my time attack”.
The French clarified the choices made: “We actually use chassis and aerodynamics 2022 e engine 2023. Surely now we are in one best locationwe have taken a big step forward: yesterday we were losttoday we have found our way again”.
Sprint race…
“I tried one Sprint Race: it went well, even if I was a bit too conservative at the beginning. Yesterday, in the time attack I had done 1’39″5, today in one lap I was already in 1’38”, I improved the step of a second“.
On the overall work…
“I did a lot of laps (88 just today, NDA) physically I’m fine. Yamaha kept the bike unchanged for three years, then a lot of news all together. I’d say too manywe got a little lost, but now we’ve found our way back. I’m confident: if Yamaha brings some evolution during the year, we can also do well in the second part of the season”
