MotoGP in 2018 has just undergone an opening race, but the rumors about the future of the 2019 drivers have been discussed since the end of last season.
To say something about Johann Zarco, he turned 28 this year and started competing in world-class professional races from age 14 and three years later, in 2007, he competed in Red Bull's rookie award. is also part of the MotoGP racing circuit. With three victories, six podiums in seven races, he easily won the first honorable title in his career. Then Zarco has a rest period of one year before officially fighting at MotoGP at the age of 19.
In the first two years with Aprillia, he had no outstanding performance, but when he moved to Derbi for the next year, Zarco won his first and second place finishes. final round. He then stepped into a five-year stint at the challenging Moto2, and did not get much better when he only won six podiums in the first three years.
But the fate of the French driver suddenly changed 180 degrees from 2015 when he moved to Kalex. With 15 wins and 24 podiums, he won the Moto2 Championship for two consecutive seasons and officially became the top driver at age 27.
Participating in MotoGP is quite late for most of the race, especially with the defending champion Marc Marquez, who even has three of the highest honors (and two years younger than Zarco). , but Zarco merged very quickly and soon became a regular driver top competition or even winning the race. Doing it in the car, not from the factory team such as Ducati, Repsol Honda or Movistar Yamaha, is understandable when he is picked up by other teams in 2019.
Zarco also set a target for next year to be able to earn a position at the factory team. Suzuki and KTM are looking at Zarco as a target for next year and are ready to offer attractive offers to entice him. The other three "big men" are not incapable, and when there are so many choices, obviously he would want to go to a place that would help him win the fastest. And that is the "dream racing team" Honda.
The dark orange team has long been a leading force at MotoGP and it will continue in the near future. Therefore, betting on them is a safe bet if you want to be successful quickly. But it must be acknowledged that Honda's recent few years are not the best choice because of its imbalance and lack of acceleration.
Even so, the team's recent improvement in the winter has been praised for what they have shown in Qatar. Losail was not a good racecourse for Repsol Honda but Marquez was nearing the finish line.
If you want to go to Honda, the car is not the only thing Zarco needs, it's just a part of the package in which the most difficult thing to do is to become a teammate of a nearly backed race. However, Zarco will not only encounter such problems at Honda but can completely happen in Yamaha and Ducati. In Yamaha, the influence of Valentino Rossi is too great at the Italian team, competing with both big names like Andrea Dovizioso and Jorge Lorenzo are not smart choices.
Marquez is recognized as a great driver in both attack and defense but not so perfect. It is true that you have beaten all your teammates in MotoGP all year, but that is just one person: Dani Pedrosa. A car must have a class driver, two elements that can not be separated. If not for Honda, Zarco could easily become the No. 1 driver at Suzuki or KTM, or continue to stick with Tech3 KTM, but all he has is the promise of a winning car is not present. .
From the above analysis, the Zarco to Honda will probably be a catastrophe of some people. Repsol Honda is Marc Marquez's racing team, all the action and the work revolves around the needs of the championship because he constantly overcome the difficulty of controlling the RC213V to bring glory, which almost Pedrosa can not be transformed.
Maison Vinales may be struggling to share a garage with a "supreme" force such as Valentino Rossi and driver # 5 may fall into the same scene when confronted with Marquez. Of course, there is no "easy" way for Zarco, only when he can push the focus on Honda to himself by constantly defeating the Spanish driver in the race, but it is not easy present.
As mentioned above, the RC213V is a more comprehensive "weapon", more in line with Marquez's racing style. And this style is in stark contrast to the Yamaha M1 in 2016 that Zarco wants to own.
Lorenzo is the best example of how moving from car style to car is so difficult that he can not go home for the first year (and probably the second year) at Ducati. . Although Zarco is better adapted to Lorenzo but moving to Honda is still an unnecessary risk, especially when there are other names that are of great interest to him.
The Suzuki GSX-RR is essentially similar to the Yamaha, so the Frenchman can quickly master it. And if you see what it can do at the test and the first race, the podium goal or beyond is not too far out. For KTM, it will be a long way to go, but it gives Zarco the freedom to change to suit himself. From then on it will become a perfect weapon for him to fight bigger dreams.
Johann Zarco is still building his name in the world of MotoGP racing. What you need is a car that is strong enough to reach new heights. Standing before the turning point, he needs to be really conscious because it will determine the future direction of the 28-year-old driver.
