Fabio Quartararo hoping for 2024 trend to continue after achieving Thai MotoGP “goal”
Having qualified directly for Q2 on Friday, Fabio Quartararo is hoping for further improvements atಌ the Thai MotoGP.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Fabio Quartararo started the 2025 MotoGP season in positive fashion by finishing Practice for the season openꦬing Thai Grand Prix inside the top-10, and therefore qualifying for Q⛎2 without the need to go through Q1 on Saturday.
Quartararo👍 was eighth-fastest on Friday, less than half-a-second behind Marc M⛎arquez who was fastest on the factory Ducati.
While Marquez and Ducati may remain out of reach for the 2021 World Champion and the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Monster Energy Yamaha team at the moment, Quartararo was pleased to make it into Q2 from Practice and avoid Q1 in Thailand, something that was a rarity for him and Yamaha in 2🐟024.

“But the goal was to be in the Q2,ꦺ we are, and also only 0.2 seconds from P3," he said.
Quartararo said tha🌸t Yamaha’s progress over the wܫinter meant that being in Q2 is now the target for every Friday afternoon Practice session.
“Already it was th💙e goal last year, the end of the season was quite gre🙈at, we were almost everywhere in the Q2,” he said.
“But it’s much betteﷺr to💎 be in Q2 from Friday, and this is the thing that is more difficult because the track is changing day-by-day, and usually when we are in Q2 from Friday we always improve a little bit on Saturday.
“So, hopefully it will be the same tomorrow.”
The French rider added that he had♔ an improved front feeling in practice for the Grand Prix compared to the test two weeks ago, where he had struggled with the front tyre.
“[I had] a little bit better feeling than the test on the front 💦– still🌞 not really comfortable,” Quartararo said.
He added: “We didn’t change anything. But with this soft [compound front tyre💎] today it was feeling aꦬ little bit better.
“Maybe the tyres from the test were ❀here for quite a long time and gave a strange feelin🍰g.
“But today th𝐆e soft was better, the hard was feeling really similar to the test, so it’s not going to be super-easy because our bike is really making the time with the front and we are not really able to do it. So, let’s see, but I think we made a good job.”
