Fabio Quartararo says it’s “a good t😼hing” to be “disappointed” at missing the podium in the MotoGP French Grand🌜 Prix sprint having started from pole.

The 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:factory Yamaha rider snatched a second successive MotoGP ไpole on Saturday morning after sett꧃ing a new lap record of his home Le Mans circuit.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fabio Quartararo then led the opening five laps of the spri﷽nt, but could do nothing to hold back eventual winner Marc Marque💖z on the sixth tour of 13.

The 2021 world champion wꦚould drop out of the top three as Gresini duo Alex Marquez and Fermin Aldeguer worked their way past him.

Quartararo missed the podium by just u🍌nder ei♋ght tenths, but admitted afterwa༒rds that he knew there was nothing he could do to ba✱ttle the Ducatis today.

“I mean, in the past we never almosℱt reached a point in the sprint an🦹d to be disappointed with a P4 is a good thing,” he told the official MotoGP website.

“Of course, I wanted to be on the sprint podium but toꦉday we had to make an intelligent race and accept that the three guys in ༒front of us were faster.

“But I enjoyed it an🌼d I think we gave a great show𝔉 in the first laps.

“Hopefu👍lly tomorrow we have a little bit le𓂃ss tyre degradation.”

Quartararo noted that he always planned to push as hard as he did in the early stages of the sprint, but is “still really far” from the Ducatis in terms of to🅷p speed despite running an updated engine this weekend.

“It was always the plan because we are struggling a little bit 𒐪with the power, even if the new engine is helping a little,” he added.

"But we can see♍ we are still really far from the Duca🌸tis on the straights and we know what we miss to really compete with them.

“We know, but to find it is more difficult for the engineer🐭s. But, like I said, it’s great to be disappointed with a P4 on the sprint and trying to make our best.”

Fabio Quartararo must have “intelligent” French GP

Quartararo’s long run pace during Friday practice was impressive and will make him a factor in the grand prix o♈ver 27 laps on Sunday.

Despite this, he says he must be “intelligent” in the main race and “accept” that there is🤡 no sense in crashing out of a good result for a podium he may not have the speed for.

“I mean, for me, we have to make like today: tomorrow we have to make an intelligent race, try to make the best position as possibl🅷e🌄,” he said.

“We know that sometimes we have to accept that to make a P4 doe🌼sn’t make any📖 sense to crash to make a P3.

“Sometimes we have to﷽ accept that 🐎today we didn’t have the pace to make P3.

“But I enjoyed it a lot and to make🍌 a few laps already in the lead and being able to be quite cl🎃ose is great.”
