Yamaha MotoGP rider Fabio Quartararo has acknowledged it’s “so s**t” to have lost a nailed-on British Grand Prix win at Silverstone – even if it was a win he never expected
Yamaha MotoGP rider Fabio Quartararo expressed disappointment at losing a seemingly assured win at the British Grand Prix at Silverstone, despite not expecting to win in the first place. Quartararo’s race took a positive turn as main contenders Alex Marquez and Marc Marquez encountered trouble early on, leading him to take the lead and build a significant gap over his rivals. However, his race was cut short due to a technical issue with his bike’s ride height, causing him to retire from the race. Quartararo’s strong performance was attributed to Yamaha’s recent improvements in engine and chassis, demonstrated by his recent pole positions. Despite not anticipating a victory, Quartararo made the most of the race until the technical setback ended his hopes of clinching the win.
