MotoGP 2024 Menempat Capabilities Quartararo

Fabio Quartararo learned many lessons from MotoGP 2024 (Instagram/@fabioquarantaro20).

JAKARTA - Yamaha racer Fabio Quartararo admitted that the 2024 MotoGP was his best way even though the results he got did not represent the statement.

The French racer closed the 2024 season in 13th position in the final standings. The minor performance was due to the less impressive performance of the YZR-M1 motorcycle.

Quartararo said that despite the results, the 2024 season made him able to bring out all his best abilities compared to the previous season.

"In terms of racing, when it comes to working with the team, I think this is the best (season)," said the 2021 MotoGP world champion, as reported by Crash.

Quartararo re-signed a contract with Yamaha earlier this year after refusing a move to Aprilia, the only manufacturer other than Ducati to successfully win the race in the 2024 season.

The 25-year-old admits that in terms of results, it must be admitted that it is still the worst. However, he can reap a lot of lessons in an effort to control motorcycles.

"Of course there are times inside where you're really angry, but that's in a very short time. However, I think the way we're working this year is amazing," he said.

A significant setback has been experienced by Yamaha since at least the second half of the 2022 season. However, the updated MotoGP concession system for 2024 allows Yamaha to increase its potential.

Quartararo admitted that the concession had saved them. According to him, if the system was not there then the 2024 season could be much worse for the Japanese team.

"What's missing is the rider. We only have two Cal (Crutchlow tester Yamaha) suffered an injury to the arm so we don't have a tester. This is the biggest problem of the year," said Quartararo.

The 2025 MotoGP will be held in 22 series. Starting from the first series on February 28, 2025 to March 2, 2025 at the Chang Circuit, Buriram, Thailand.

Thailand has been appointed as the opening to replace Qatar, which is being renovated. This is the first time the season's opening race has taken place in Southeast Asia since Malaysia in 1999.
