Fabio Quartararo believes that the Dutch MotoGP 2023 will be Yamaha’s benchmark. If Yamaha isn’t fast at Assen, then Quartararo doesn’t expect them to be competitive for the rest of the season.
Quartararo, a French racer, is currently having a difficult season with Yamaha. He has not won in the first seven series, with his best achievement being a third podium finish at the regular race in Austin. Quartararo has finished in the top 10 four times before getting his worst result at Sachsenring, where he finished the race in 13th position. He has also had disappointing results in the sprint race, only gaining points once when he finished ninth in Argentina.
The 2023 Dutch MotoGP is seen as a hope for Quartararo to get the best results. He believes that the competition at Assen is always tight and competitive. Since debuting in the premier class, Quartararo has successfully won one victory and finished third in three starts. In the 2022 edition, Quartararo failed to finish but was able to compete with the leading racers before crashing in round 11.
“For me, it is clear that this is a track where if we are not fast there, then we will not be fast anywhere. The problem is I think this is one of my favorite tracks,” said the 2021 MotoGP world champion. Quartararo hopes to perform well at Assen and go on holiday in a good position.
The Dutch MotoGP 2023 will take place this weekend, and Quartararo is determined to achieve a good result. He sees this race as crucial for Yamaha’s performance for the rest of the season.
