For six seasons the Yamaha he was chasing the pilots title, after the last success dated 2015 and signed by Jorge Lorenzo, who came out the winner from the internal fight against Valentino Rossi. The three-time MotoGP champion was present in the Misano pits on Sunday, signing an ideal handover with his heir in the golden register among the winners for the Iwata brand. Fabio Quartararo. The transalpine became world champion after the comeback from 15th to 4th place and took advantage of the fall of ‘Pecco’ Bagnaia, who crashed a few laps from the end while he was leading the race in front of Marc Marquez.
Lorenzo he wanted to compliment ‘El Diablo’: “The most difficult thing was withstanding the pressure, because there are weekends when the bike doesn’t go well or suffers more, and it happens especially with the Yamaha. But Fabio finished all the races and never crashed, and it’s very difficult when you’re under pressure. Together with Bagnaia he was the fastest in the whole championship, but Fabio was more consistent and made fewer mistakes. He is the right champion“. Between the two there was a contact during the celebrations: “He was very affectionate with me, I appreciated that. I’m also happy for Yamaha, since they haven’t won for six years “. The Spanish champion then said he had hoped – as an external observer – to see a conclusion of the world championship maybe in Portimao or Valencia: “As a fan I was hoping that the title could be decided later, to have more pathos. I was surprised by the fall of ‘Pecco’ Bagnaia. Nobody expected to see Quartararo champion after having the difficulties of Saturday“, concluded Lorenzo ad As.
