Johann Zarco ended the first non-ducati driver at the Qatar Grand Prix, finished fourth. A result that makes the Honda clan shine, of which he is the best ambassador at the start of the season.
The best result of a Honda since 2023: “Maybe I was even more confident on the motorcycle. I saw that my start -up was very good and it put me in confidence. I felt it yesterday on the sprint, even with the problems we had on both laps. I saw that there was control, a possibility of doubled. I rather kept that in the head for Sunday, then hoping that the vibrations are under control. In terms of attack, let’s say, I had confidence in my speed. So, I could better project myself on how to attack. And that did good. »»
A competitive Honda everywhere at the start of the season: “Yes, it’s true that it makes us four quite different circuits. Large circuits, anyway. That’s why Europe can be very interesting. I do not see why it would not also work in Europe, with all the things that we manage to understand. But yes, it’s really cool. I am very happy to see the first, to finish at 6 seconds, to hope for the podium during the race. Because I was under control, a little hard but under control anyway. That’s good. »»
Less vibrations on Sunday: “There was no photo, it was day and night. (Due to) tire. In fact, the tender tire is consumed far too quickly. We had not analyzed it enough during the tests. It was a mistake. »»
Improve the engine, a weak point: ” I hope. It would be great. At the Jerez test, we have a little new features that have been wanting for a while. It will allow us to move forward in the settings and see if these settings make us pass a course. »»
