Qualified in 12th position, a Moto GP rider would plan to find himself in the top 10 at the end of the first turn. But for drivers of the caliber of Johann Zarco, the project is completely different.
Johann Zarco once again fair play at the start
If the duel between Jorge Martin and Pecco Bagnaia shakes the whole Earth, in our premises, our concentration is limited to two pilots; Fabio Quartararo and Johann Zarco. And it is the second which will offer us the movement of the day. Indeed, Zarco starts in 12th position, and has much better ambitions for the race.
“I think I will be better in the second part of the race. Maybe we can make a great top 10” Johann Zarco
But as soon as the lights go out, his plan is shattered. Before even negotiating the first turn, the Frenchman lost eight places, and found himself in 20th position. Chess and math.
Johann Zarco finally moved up to 14th place on the finish line, just behind his compatriot Fabio Quartararo (11th), but the masterpiece was there. Once again, the start was THE main weapon for Cannes to avoid a good result. Oh and by the way, Jorge Martin became world champion ahead of Pecco Bagnaia. But you will have understood, the main information of the day was elsewhere for the FFL.
