Quartararo, who was an increasingly steadfast leader, came to a circuit "pare"

The French fabio quartararo is shown at every grand prix that it faces a solvency that stabilizes it as a leader of MotoGP and now it has reached the circuit TT Assena track that can be classified as “friend” where it has been disputed, from the start of the world championship in 1949 and without delay, the Dutch Grand Prix.

Quartararo chained two consecutive wins of the three he has already achieved this season, with three more podiums as second, allowing him to reach Netherlands with a 34 -point advantage over his immediate chaser, the Spaniard Aleix Espargaro (Aprilia RS-GP).

To these data we must add another, less concerned for his rivals, which is him, Fabio Quartararothe final winner of Assen TT and, despite the criticisms and doubts raised at the start of the season including Yamaha YZR M1the truth is that the prototype of the Iwata manufacturer shows solvency and regularity that not even the “many” pilots of Ducati or the Aprilia RS-GP’s efficiency Aleix EspargaroThey seem to have the ability to stop.

It will be interesting to see on the Assen TT, a circuit of more than four and a half kilometers (4,542 meters) and technical, with accelerations and curves of all kinds, what is the performance of Quartararo’s Yamaha YZR M 1, on the other band provide the only Yamaha capable of performing at the highest level. Again, in front of Fabio Quartararo should be Aleix Espargaró himself, who needs to close the gap on the Frenchman after an “error” in Catalonia and his cautious fourth place finish in Germany, in the same position as the Italian Francesco “Pecco” Bagnaia and his Ducati Desmosedici GP22after his second consecutive “zero” in Germany.

Bagnaia, forced to improve

Bagnaia started the season with the “vitola” of the contender for the title but the truth is that so far he has only had a few good moments with his victories in Spain and Italy and his other appearances so far this season. it is almost nothing. yielding fifth and eighth place as the best results, very far from who assumed the necessary conditions to qualify for the world title of the queen category of motorcycling. In fact, he was preceded by two other Ducati riders, Frenchman Johann Zarco, who was third on the provisional world championship table, and Italian Enea Bastianini, who came to lead that classification.

Fabio, is referred to

So again the category reference is Fabio Quartararo and his enemies with options must be both Ducati’s main riders -two of them, the Spanish Jorge Martín and the Italian Enea Bastianiniplay for second place on the official team including bagnaia– As in aprilia, Aleix Espargaro and Maverick Viñalesand in those suzukiThe Spanish Joan Mir and Alex Rinswithout seeming to be in a position to be in that battle nor the officers of Repsol-Honda or in those KTM.

Maverick Viñales had to retire from the Sachsenring career, when he fought for podium positions and Aleix Espargaró’s fourth place for the first time all season, when the rear suspension locking system broke in his lower position. , it became impossible to ride the bike and forced him to retire. This allows us to expect that Maverick Viñales is close to becoming the one to ride the Aprilia RS-GP and that will be very good news for the Noale manufacturer who, in this way, will put his two riders among the best. in MotoGP.

the quality of Joan Mir and Alex Rins this is beyond doubt, but the announcement of Japanese manufacturer Suzuki’s departure at the end of the season seems to have given them an “indigestion” from which they have yet to recover. Rins could not dispute the German race due to his physical problems with his left wrist and Mir went to the ground when he tried to be among the fastest, so the goal of the two, if Rins arrives in better condition in Assen TT, will have to return to fight for the podium and, why not, for victory on a track considered one of the myths of the championship.

Honda, in very bad weather

Pilots face very different situations Repsol and HondaThe Spanish Pol Espargaro he looked more outside than inside the team and the results did not come, the German Stefan Bradl As a test pilot of the Golden Wing prototypes, he could do nothing but give his best, although, as in Germany, it meant burning his feet due to a problem with the cooling and temperature of the RC 213 V engine.

Japanese Takaaki Nakagami forced to be more on the ground than the bike, with crashes in the last two grand prix races, and Alex Marquez He attributed the lack of performance of the motorcycle to technical problems here, as the rear suspension system of his motorcycle also blocked the Saxony ring. Austrian manufacturer KTM is in South African Brad Binder to his best representative in the provisional World Cup classification, but neither he nor the Portuguese Miguel Oliveirawho won in Indonesia, seems to be in a position to fight for the top position, unless there are exceptional conditions such as those experienced by drivers on the Indonesian circuit of Mandalikaon the island of Lombok.
