Johann Zarco made a big jump on day 2 Le Mans session with 8th place result on qualifying. Struggling around 15th on free practice session, Zarco finally got his best result on Le Mans by took 8th..
Zarco said, "I am quite satisfied, the eighth time is good and is good for tomorrow. If we consider how things were going since yesterday I have always amounted to around fifteenth place and this would have complicated things further. I could not feel relaxed about my MotoBI, but then this morning I woke up more relaxed and I finally started to take this weekend as if it were any other weekend and on home turf. "
He continue," My coach and manager Laurent Fellon followed the morning round of free service from the lane next to the track and noticed that the bike was moving a lot. The same data telemetry have detected the problem and from there we could implement improvements to the set up of MotoBI for qualifying, interventions that have helped."
"At the afternoon session I knew I had to hurry a good time because it was raining slightly, I managed to move up to seventh place, and I then closed in the eighth. Now we will review the data for possible improvements to be tested in the warm up and then perhaps go in the race, taking an eye on the weather." said Zarco again.
