Johann Zarco may not have got a seat at the Factory Ducati team for the 2021 MotoGP season, but 🐟🧸by moving from Avintia to Pramac the Frenchman is joining a squad that took more podiums than any other Ducati team last season.

Although Official team riders Andrea Dovizioso and Danilo Petrucci took a win each, in Austria and France respectively, third-place at Jerez for Dovizioso was the only other rostrum app🦋earance between th👍em.

Meanwhile, Jack Miller took four podiums in Pramac colours,🃏 including finishing runner-up at the las🍰t two rounds. Team-mate Francesco Bagnaia also claimed a podium, to give Pramac five for the season.

Both riders also missed out on other podium and perhaps victor🌳y chances due to bad luck, technical problems anཧd mistakes.

Miller and Bagnaia have moved up to form the all-new Factory team line-up in 2021, with Zarco and rookie Jorge Martin taking over the Pramac machines, which are one-year newer than th🔯e Avintia bikes the Frenchman raced to a pole, podium and fastest lap last year.

"In 2020 I learned a lot of things on the Ducati, I also had good performance but not very good consistency over the season," Zarco told t🐷he official MotoGP website. "So the way Jack Miller finished the season on the Pramac Ducati bike, fighting for podiums and thinking about victories, I would like to perform in the same way.

"I need to see how I will be on the new [GP20] bike. I would love to fight for podiums consistently during t♛he season."

"In 2020 there were so many riders thinking about victories and also a new world champion in Joan Mir. It means that almost everythi💝ng is possible [for 2021]," Zarco added. "

"I think we will see a similar performance 𝔍from everyone, many riders know their♓ bikes very well. It's going to be tough but this is the beauty of the highest level of MotoGP. From my side I would like to perform a lot to keep the dream on."

Zarco was speaking🍨 at Jerez where he planned to spend two days training on a Panigale road bike, only for wet weather to heavily reduce his track time.

"I🌊 preferred to wait [for the dry conditions] but no big drama, it's only the beginning of training. I think in February I will get more opport🦄unities to come to Spain and prepare myself for March and the Pramac Ducati bike in Qatar."
