Why Johann Zarco’s “positive” fight in Argentina MotoGP was a double-edged sword
LCR Honda rider Z💃arco recaps “almost dream” Argentina MotoGP

💎Johann Zarco says the fact he could fight with Pecco Bagnaia in the MotoGP Argentina Grand Prix wasꦗ “positive” but also meant he “could not use” his “extra speed”.
The LCR rider gave Honda one 🌠of its best weekends in well over a yea💦r after he qualified on the front row and managed fourth in the sprint.
Feeling he had podium pace in the grand prix, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Johann Zarco ultimately finished sixth after a battle with Ducati’s 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pecco Bagnaia.
While Zarco beamed at the fact he was able to fight with a factory Ducati on his Honda, 🔴he admits that Bagnaia’s robust defence meant he couldn’t use the speed advantage he felt he had in the early stages.
As a result, his tyres dro💛pped off too much in the final laps and left him powerless to stop VR46 Ducati’s Fabio Di Giann♛antonio from snatching fifth from him.
“Very nice weekend, almost a dreaℱm weekend,” he began.
“From the first lap on Friday till the race on Sunday, getting this possibility to fight with the top guys was so nice and has been pretty po🐼sitive for us.
“Clearly I did everything to have the podium.
“ The strategy o🍸n Sunday was better than on Saturday because I got a better start in this long race on Sunday and I was in a better position to be in third position and try to go with Alex [Marquez] and Marc [Marquez].
“Buꦍt I was fighting with Pecco and he was defending pretty well.
“So, the extra speed I could have at t🦄he beginning of the race it’s really that I didn’t use it - I could not use it properly because of the fight with 🐻Pecco.
“But it’s so positive to say 𝔍I’ve been fighting with Peܫcco.
“But then the race has been quite tough because not overtake him made the bike a bit more tough to ride and at the end of the race I got a lot of movement oꦅn the bike that I could not hold Di Giannantonio from coming.
“So, I finished✃ sixth but if🙈 I take it overall I can be happy.”
