He was confident then. I was suffering on the left side of the tire, I didn’t want to take the corner too fast because every time I did I lost the front so I had to slow down. This is probably the fastest change of direction on the calendar.“
Acknowledging his opponent’s superiority, Jack Miller humorously underlined Fabio Quartararo’s passing:Fabio made me look like an idiot! Well done to him, he had a great race to come back because he was behind at one point I saw on the sign.“The Frenchman, for his part, enjoyed his success at the microphone. Channel+ : “I don’t know how I did it. I went there, I started. I knew it was the only place I could get past him because he was speeding up and I couldn’t catch up with him. In any case, I sincerely think this is one of my best passes. I don’t know if it looks good in pictures but it was very aggressive on the bike. She didn’t expect it at all, and I think that’s the beauty. I haven’t been able to make many transitions in my career because I find it difficult to transition. This was one of my best and I’m putting it in the top 3 at least.“
