Fabio Quartararo expects to face “a new challenge” when faced with Alex Rins, next year’s teammate.
2024 MotoGP rider line-upRins is the only non-Ducati rider to produce a grand prix victory this season so could test 2021 world champion Quartararo in different ways.“Concerning Alex, it’s a new challenge for the team and for him, also for me,” Quartararo said.Rins, representing Suzuki, out-scored Quartararo in the 2019 and 2020 seasons.“I spent almost all my MotoGP career with Franco, we have known each other a long time. I wish him the best,” Quartararo said about his outgoing teammate.
Quartararo was restricted to 15th at the British MotoGP - a result so disappointing, he exchanged a funny tortoise emoji with the equally-annoyed Marc Marquez via social media afterwards.“You need to look forward. The summer break was good for me. “We feel, and know, that we’re not ready to fight for a podium. We need to do everything great for a great result.”Yamaha managing director Lin Jarvis added: “The first half has been disappointing, without doubt. Compare last year’s first half to this year, it’s disappointing.
“We expected to do better, we haven’t fulfilled our objectives in the first half. We’ve been struggling frequently, we’ve only made two podiums. “It’s not up to the standard that we’re accustomed to, and where we want to be. We have a lot to work on, and a lot of things to improve upon in the future.”
