“The first lap where we go two times wide, and lose five positions or even more…”
A 10th-place finish for Fabio Quartararo in the Thai MotoGP Sprint came despite some tough battling at the beginning of the race with KTM’s Brad Binder.
“But then, Q1 was nice, Q2 was good; Sprint race, the pace was nice — just, like I said, the first lap where we go two times wide, and lose five positions or even more. “I think our pace was quite faster than the guys I had in front, at this moment,” Quartararo said in explanation of his ability to make passes — not a usual characteristic of a Yamaha MotoGP rider’s race.
Quartararo’s qualifying also featured an eye-catching save, as he lost the front on the entry to turn five before his knee or elbow were on the floor but managed to pick the bike up.
