Fabio Quartararo finished sixth in the Malaysian Grand Prix, despite a second start with a handicap: after the collision, he had to start again with an engine already heavily used, and tires that were not new! Enough to end the overseas tour on a very good note, as the best Yamaha rider.
Sixth place despite difficult technical conditions: “Hectic but quite positive. (After the collision) I had to leave with the second bike, which unfortunately had an engine with quite a few kilometers so it worked a little less, a rear tire which had a few turns… We fought well. We had a good first lap and a great race. »
The collision at the first start: “No idea what happened. I didn't see the fall, I just felt a motorcycle hit me, then I hit someone. It happened so quickly that I don't remember what happened. »
The results of the overseas tour: “There are races where the results have not been good. The worst was clearly Motegi. But there was always a bit of positive in everything we did. In Mandalika we were fast, at Phillip Island also at the end, we had a good weekend in Buriram, here too the results were quite good. We had a good tour, even the results are not 100% positive. We still have a good margin of progress. »
The last Grand Prix and the 2025 pre-season test finally in Barcelona: “It’s next to the house. It's a good circuit to work on the bike. In terms of results it will be complicated because the grip is not good, but to see our weak points it will not be bad. Better than Lusail. »
