Yamaha was the slowest manufacturer in Austria and failed to score a single point, leaving Quartararo to call the result a ‘disaster’
Fabio Quartararo feels things are getting “worse and worse” for Yamaha despite its best efforts to dig itself out of its current slump in MotoGP. The 2021 champion struggled to 18th in Sunday’s Austrian Grand Prix, finishing almost 44 seconds behind race winner Francesco Bagnaia on the factory Ducati. His final position was compromised by a long lap penalty, though he was already running outside the points in 16th place when he was sanctioned for repeatedly exceeding track limits.
