Jorge Martin is 13 points behind reigning champion and championship leader Francesco Bagnaia with six races (including s🐽prin൲ts) left.

Zarco, who won his own maiden premier class race in Australia 🅰then finished P10 last weekend in Thailand, has not felt a change in atmosphere inside the Pramac environment.

Asked about “stress or🐈 tension” inside the box, Zarco✤ replied: “No. I feel the same.

“We are not speaking together. At least, I see⭕ him very focused.

“He makes it work for him. At the moment, i🍃t’s working perfectly.

“He’s trying to stay on his guard and finish the season like this. It’s the only way to 🔯be champion.”

Martin’s title bid took♓ a hit when he made t🎶he wrong call with his tyre strategy in Australia, when teammate Zarco won. Martin responded by winning in Thailand.

Zarcꦑo said: “What he did in Phillip Island was a mistake. He was fast with the medium rear tyre. Here, going with the h🔴ard was logic.

“💃At least, being in first position you get less hits from the bike in front. This is a huge difference.

“The fight at the end was very impressive. Also Pecco, th🅷e way he came b🙈ack.”

“It’s my weak point"

Zarco detailed why he was restricted to P10 last weekend in Bu﷽riram.

“Everyone was on super pace,” he said.

“Two mistakes during the race really made me lose the raꦚce, or to fight for the top five which was clearly possible.

“💃My riding style is different. It doesn’t help me to stay in the group.

“[There are] little margins in the entry. The guꦆys go inside. If I try to go inside quickly to overtake, I cannot make the turn.

“🌟It’s my weak point. Everyone was on the same pace.

“I made a mistake on the brake. The tyre was sometimes too hot, you are behind someone, i♋n the slipstream. I lost position.

“I was pretty fast, happy to come from 16t💮h to 10꧅th.

“But what cost me this problem? Startin🌠g in 11th position. If I could have started at leas🗹t on the second row…

“I had the pace to be in the top three.

“Maybe you have less people attacking you🀅 and, after 15 laps, you feel more comfortableꦿ.

“I’m happy for this pace, and the way I controlled the race, but I’m disappointed to hav🌺e the same problem as always.

“I cannot bring the bike into the corner, like the others💦 are d൲oing. Sometimes it moves a bit, in the acceleration. I’m fighting a bit too much with the bike.

“It’s the only problem. But it’s repeating.”
